Molecular studies in growth hormone gene deletions in patients with isolated growth hormone deficiency.
Article Dans Anglais | IMSEAR | ID: sea-137733
ABSTRACT
Human GH deficiency (GHD) occurs in 1 in 4,000-10,000, and up to 30 percent of cases have an affected first degree relative suggesting many cases may be familial. To determine the GHD cases cased by GH gene defects we analyzed the GH genes of 90 consecutive cases. Genomic DNAs were used for PCR amplification of 2.7 kb fragments containing subjects’ GH gene; these PCR products were subjects to determine GH gene deletions. PCR products of 1900 and 1919 bp were obtained. By using the combination of restriction enzymes BglI, HaeII and SmaI to digest these PCR products, the various sizes of GH gene deletion can be detected. None of the possible deletions was found in these patients by either PCR or Southern blot analysis.
