    摘要: Recombinant DNA molecules in which an avian retroviral long terminal repeat (LTR) has been ligated to the bovine growth hormone gene are described herein. The retroviral LTR was derived from a plasmid clone of a Schmidt Rupin strain of Rous Sarcoma Virus while the bovine growth hormone (BGH) gene was derived from a lambda-bacteriophage genomic library. Using a transient eucaryotic expression assay system, the plasmid constructs were screened for their ability to direct expression and secretion of bovine growth hormone. These constructs were co-transformed into a mammalian cell (mouse) culture in order to obtain a stable cell culture secreting large amounts of bovine growth hormone.

    摘要: The present invention relates to DNA molecules which encode antagonists of vertebrate growth hormones obtained by mutation of at least the amino acid corresponding to Glu-119 in bovine growth hormone. The DNA molecules may be used to express the antagonists, either in cell culture, or in the cells of the patient of interest. The antagonist so expressed may be used to inhibit GH activity in a subject.

    摘要: Several aspects of this invention relate to diagnosis of diabetic states in a mammal using protein isoforms. In some aspects, it relates to a method for determining the diabetic state of a mammal. This method can include, for example, (a) measuring the serum concentration of one or more protein isoforms, (b) analyzing the serum concentration of the one or more protein isoforms, and (c) determining the diabetic state of the mammal. Other aspects include kits used to perform the method. Further aspects are the isolated protein isoforms themselves, and their methods of isolation.

    摘要: The present invention relates to antagonists of vertebrate growth hormones obtained by mutation of the third alpha helix of such proteins (especially bovine or human GHs). These mutants-have growth-inhibitory or other GH-antagonizing effects. These novel hormones may be administered exogenously to animals, or transgenic animals may be made that express the antagonist. Animals have been made which exhibited a reduced growth phenotype. The invention also describes methods of treating acromegaly, gigantism, cancer, diabetes, vascular eye diseases (diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, age-related macular degeneration, retinopathy of sickle-cell anemia, etc.) as well as nephropathy and other diseases, by administering an effective amount of a growth hormone antagonist. The invention also provides pharmaceutical formulations comprising one or more growth hormone antagonists.

    摘要: The present invention provides mouse models of growth hormone insensitivity including Laron syndrome. In particular, the present invention provides transgenic mice incapable of expressing functional growth hormone receptor including mice which further cannot express functional growth hormone binding protein. The invention further provides methods for testing the usefulness of chemical compounds in the treatment of growth hormone insensitivity and diabetic end-organ disease.
