Role of the GH/IGF-I axis in the growth retardation of weaver mice.

Endocrine - 1 Oct 2007

Yao Weiguo, Bethin Kathleen, Yang Xianlin, Zhong Jin, Lee Wei-Hua

Abstract excerpt

IGF-I is a well-established anabolic growth factor essential for growth and development. Although the role of the GH/IGF-I axis is established for normal postnatal growth, its functional state in neurodegenerative diseases is not fully characterized. The weaver mutant mouse is a commonly used model for studying hereditary cerebellar ataxia and provides an opportunity to investigate the function of IGF-I in...
