The importance of hormone receptor analysis in osteosarcoma cells growth submitted to treatment with estrogen in association with thyroid hormone
(2008-01-01)
Bone tumor incidence in women peaks at age 50-60, coinciding with the menopause. That estrogen (E2) and triiodothyronine (T3) interact in bone metabolism has been well established. However, few data on the action of these ...

Novel mechanisms of growth hormone regulation: growth hormone-releasing peptides and ghrelin
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2006-08-01)
Growth hormone secretion is classically modulated by two hypothalamic hormones, growth hormone-releasing hormone and somatostatin. A third pathway was proposed in the last decade, which involves the growth hormone ...
E180splice mutation in the growth hormone receptor gene in a Chilean family with growth hormone insensitivity: A probable common mediterranean ancestor
(Freund Publishing House Ltd, 2008)
Mutations in the GH receptor gene have been identified as the cause of growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder. We studied the clinical and biochemical characteristics and the ...
Growth Hormone Receptor Exon 3 Isoforms and Their Implication in Growth Disorders and Treatment
(KARGER, 2009)
Human recombinant growth hormone (hGH) has been used to treat short stature in several different conditions, but considerable inter-individual variation in short- and long-term growth response exists. Pharmacogenomics can ...
Growth hormone treatment in children with idiopathic short stature: correlation of growth response with peripheral thyroid hormone action
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-03)
Idiopathic short stature (ISS) describes short children with normal GH secretion. Although GH treatment increases their heights, growth response to the therapy differs among patients. Thyroid hormones (TH) are essential ...
Growth hormone response to growth hormone-releasing peptide-2 in growth hormone-deficient Little mice
(HOSPITAL CLINICAS, UNIV SAO PAULOSAO PAULO, 2012)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate a possible direct, growth hormone-releasing, hormone-independent action of a growth hormone secretagogue, GHRP-2, in pituitary somatotroph cells in the presence of inactive growth hormone-releasing ...
Neither bovine somatotropin nor growth hormone-releasing factor alters expression of thyroid hormone receptors in liver and mammary tissues
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2011)
Physiological effects of thyroid hormones are mediated primarily by binding of triiodothyronine to specific nuclear receptors. Organ-specific changes in production of triiodothyronine from its prohormone, thyroxine, have ...
