The Etiological Spectrum OF Short Stature among Children Attending Endocrine Clinic at Tertiary Care Hospital [PDF]
Background: One of the most frequent reasons for referral to pediatric endocrinology units is short stature. Children’s short height has a complicated etiology that includes genetics, race, gender, nutrition, and several endocrine hormones.

Short stature caused by SHOX gene haploinsufficiency: from diagnosis to treatment [PDF]
Estudos realizados em pacientes portadores de deleções parciais dos cromossomos sexuais permitiram a caracterização do SHOX, gene localizado na região pseudoautossômica no braço curto dos cromossomos sexuais, fundamental na determinação da altura normal.

A Trypsin‐Like Serine Protease ZmNAL1a Fine‐Tunes Maize Floral Transition and Flowering Time
This study identifies a trypsin‐like serine protease, ZmNAL1a, that moves from leaves to the shoot apical meristem. ZmNAL1a promotes the floral transition by degrading TOPLESS‐like corepressor REL2, which thereby enhances the expression of key flowering genes through elevating histone acetylation and relieving REL2–ZmEREBP147‐mediated transcriptional ...

Familial idiopathic short stature and beyond: a case-report of a novel heterozygous NPR2 mutation.
Background: NPR2 gene encodes for B-type natriuretic peptide receptor (NPR-B), a positive regulator of the growth plate. Recently, heterozygous NPR2 mutations were reported in 2–6% cases of idiopathic short stature (ISS) and 13.6% of familial ISS ...

This study identifies a novel thermoregulatory mechanism in rice: TOGR3 partners with 26S proteasome subunits, including TT1, to drive thermoresponsive ubiquitin–proteasome activity, maintaining sugar homeostasis in stomatal regulation to balance growth and stress resistance.

Heterozygous GHR gene mutation in a child with idiopathic short stature [PDF]
Several monogenic defects have been reported to be associated with idiopathic short stature. Focusing on growth hormone receptor (GHR)-gene alterations, the heterozygosity of the same gene defect may be associated with a range of growth deficits.
