Decreased Activity of the <i>Ghrhr</i> and <i>Gh</i> Promoters Causes Dominantly Inherited GH Deficiency
2019-02-08
Abstract excerpt
Isolated growth hormone deficiency type II (IGHD2) is mainly caused by heterozygous splice-site mutations in intron 3 of the GH1 gene. A dominant negative effect of the mutant growth hormone (GH) lacking exon 3 on wild-type GH secretion has been proposed; however, the molecular mechanisms involved are elusive. To uncover the molecular systems underlying GH deficiency in IGHD2, we established IGHD2 model mice, whi...
