Sex-Specific Early Growth Hormone Response Genes in Rat Liver
16 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
Pituitary GH-secretory profiles are sex dependent and regulate the sexually dimorphic expression of a large number of genes in the liver. The slow response of many sex-specific liver genes to changes in plasma GH status suggests that GH acts in the liver via both direct and indirect mechanisms organized in a hierarchical regulatory network. Presently, genome-wide liver transcription profiling was conducted to...
