Placental Lactogen is a polypeptide hormone that is produced by the Placenta, also known as chorionic somatomammotropin hormone. It has both Growth Hormone and Prolactin activities on growth, lactation, and luteal steroid production. The objective of this study was to investigate the bovine Placental Lactogen (bPL) gene polymorphism of Holstein cows in Razavi Khorasan province. Blood samples we...

in this study escherichia coli de3 containing expression vector (pet21a) with cloned persian sturgeon growth hormone (psgh) gene was grown in 10 ml lb broth on a 150 rpm shaker, at the temperature of 37 °c. at the late log phase (determined by od standard curve) 100 μl isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (iptg) was added for induction of gh synthesis. samples were taken every 2 hours and afte...

Growth hormone, a protein hormone, has a remarkable role in growth, reproduction and milk production. The present investigation was aimed at studying the genetic variation in growth hormone gene locus 4th exon, 4th intron and 5th exon in Murrah buffalo bulls by PCR-RFLP. The growth hormone gene was amplifi ed by PCR using oligonucleotide primers standardized for Bos taurus species. A 428 bp fra...

The growth hormone receptor (GHR) is a member of cytokine/hematopoietin family that mediates the biological actions of growth hormone (GH) on target tissues. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the association of TG-repeat polymorphisms in the 5’-flanking region of bovine GHR gene with milk production traits and somatic cell score (SCS) in Holstein cattle of Iran. The part of 5’...
