General description

Growth Hormone (GH) is a 23 kDa circulating pituitary hormone, Rat GH shares approximately 97% homology with mouse GH and 65% homology with human GH in its protein sequence. The main target of action for growth hormone is the central nervous system. In animal models, this hormone exerts neuroprotective effects against neurodegenerative stimuli and prevents neural loss on hypoxic-ischaemic damage. Thus, a reduced level of growth hormone with aging affects brain function and leads to memory and cognitive impairments. This Rat/Mouse Growth Hormone ELISA is used to measure & quantify Growth Hormone levels in Metabolism & Endocrine & Cell Signaling research.

Application

Rat/Mouse Growth Hormone ELISA has been used to measure or quantify growth hormone levels in mice blood samples, xenograft model, and plasma samples.

Ghrelin is an endogenous ligand for growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHS-R1a), and consists of 28 amino acid residues with octanoyl modification at Ser(3). The previous studies have revealed that N-terminal part of ghrelin including modified Ser(3) is the active

A reduction in hepatocyte growth hormone (GH)-signaling promotes non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, debate remains as to the relative contribution of the direct effects of GH on hepatocyte function vs indirect effects, via alterations in insulin-like growth factor 1

SR family RNA binding proteins regulate splicing of nascent RNAs in vitro but their physiological role in vivo is largely unexplored, as genetic deletion of many SR protein genes results in embryonic lethality. Here we show that SRSF3HKO mice carrying
