Abstract excerpt
Because of the small differences among genotypes, it would be difficult in basal conditions to detect the effect of genetic polymorphism in endocrine function, but this could emerge during provocative tests. We have studied four polymorphic sites of the GH gene region (17q24.2), MSPIA, MSPIB, BGLIIA, and BGLIIB. Gene and haplotype distributions in classes of growth retardation have been studied. The outcome of GH...
