Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The allele variant of neurokinin B and its receptor genes were thought important in regulating the human reproductive axis in many populations. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the variances in TAC3 and TACR3 genes that encoded neurokinin B (NKB) and its receptor (NK3R), individually, were associated with idiopathic precocious puberty in Chinese girls. METHODS: The genotyping...
