Regulation of body growth.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Recent basic studies have yielded important new insights into the molecular mechanisms that regulate growth locally. Simultaneously, clinical studies have identified new molecular defects that cause growth failure and overgrowth, and genome-wide association studies have elucidated the genetic basis for normal human height variation. RECENT FINDINGS: The Hippo pathway has emerged as one of the...
