Human growth is associated with distinct patterns of gene expression in evolutionarily conserved networks
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A co-ordinated tissue-independent gene expression profile associated with growth is present in rodent models and this is hypothesised to extend to all mammals. Growth in humans has similarities to other mammals but the return to active long bone growth in the pubertal growth spurt is a distinctly human growth event. The aim of this study was to describe gene expression and biological pathways...
