Evolving growth hormone deficiency: proof of concept
IntroductionWe present the evolution of GHD in adolescent males with persistent growth failure, in whom the diagnosis was established after a second GH stimulation test (GST).MethodsWe performed a retrospective chart review of children who presented for ...

Making sense o fhormone-mediated defense networking: from rice to Arabidopsis [PDF]
Phytohormones are not only essential for plant growth and development but also play central roles in triggering the plant immune signaling network. Historically, research aimed at elucidating the defense-associated role of hormones has tended to focus on

Growth in growth hormone insensitivity
Primary GH insensitivity due to GH receptor deficiency (GHRD) provides a model for studying the discrete effects of severe IGF-I deficiency on growth and body composition. Growth failure in utero is doubtful, but postpartum growth proceeds at rates that result in adult statures 4-12 standard deviations (SDs) below the normal mean.

Schematic illustration of the mechanism of targeted delivery of nanoparticles including 1) paracellular, 2) endolysosomal escape, 3) receptor mediated endocytosis, and 4) M cell mediated transport for non‐GI diseases by oral administration such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and brain diseases. Abstract Oral drug delivery is a promising approach

Once thought to be present only in liver, muscle and adipose tissue, the GH receptor is now known to be ubiquitously distributed, in accord with the many pleiotropic actions of GH. These include the regulation of metabolism, postnatal growth, cognition, immune, cardiac and renal systems and gut function.
