Cloning of the Chicken Pituitary Receptor for Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone [PDF]
Details of the regulation of GH in birds are unclear. In this report, a receptor was cloned from chicken pituitary cDNA with 61% amino acid sequence identity to the human pituitary GHRH receptor. Phylogenies inferred from sequence alignments support that this is the chicken counterpart of the GHRH receptor known in mammals. Northern blotting shows that

Male reproductive hormones and semen quality
Male reproductive functions are mediated by different hormones whose orchestrations remain a major research interest. The ‘master’ regulator hormonal axis is the hypothalamo- pituitary-gonadal/testicular axis which is led by the pulsatile release of ...

Induction of final oocyte maturation in Cyprinidae fish by hypothalamic factors: a review
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone in Cyprinidae as in other Vertebrates functions as a brain signal which stimulates the secretion of luteinizing hormone from the pituitary gland. Two forms of gonadotropin-releasing hormone have been identified in cyprinids,

Antiapoptotic effects of velvet antler polypeptides on damaged neurons through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis [PDF]
We investigated the effects of velvet antler polypeptide on cognitive impairment and the underlying mechanisms. Hydrogen peroxide-induced cell injury was used to establish an in vitro model of SH-SY5Y cells.
