Introduction: MKRN3, kisspeptin and IGF-1 maybe involved into the initiation of puberty. The aim of our research is to evaluate the differences of serum IGF-1, MKRN3 and kisspeptin in girls with central precocious puberty, rapidly progressive puberty, premature thelarche and controls, and further assess the value of IGF-1 in puberty initiation.Methods: The patients enrolled in the study were divided into four groups: central precocious puberty (CPP), rap...

Background: IGF1R gene mutation usually cause IUGR. The children born with IUGR were prone to some kinds of brain function disorders.Objective and hypotheses: The dysfunction of the brain was caused by the abnormal oligodendrocyte development.To establish lentivirus vector of IGF1R gene mutation (R709Q) and transfect oligodendrocyte precursors (Ge6). Observe the IRS/MAPK and PI3K/Akt/PKB signaling pathway and the change of proliferation, differentiation,...

Objective: To observe vaginal opening day (VOD), hypothalamic kiss-1 gene and ovarian estrogen receptors (ER) gene expression level changes in neonatal rats exposure to different doses of bisphenol-A(BPA).Methods: Neonatal female SD rats were randomly divided into six groups: control group, vehicle group, 17β-estradiol group (17β-estradiol, E2,10 μg/kg per day), low-dose BPA group (25 μg/kg per day), medium-dose BPA group (50 μg/...

Background: It is now widely accepted that chemical pollutants in the environment can interfere with the endocrine system. The impact of endocrine disrupting chemicals on puberty disorders is concerned. bisphenol-A (BPA) has been measured in fetal plasma. There are different toxic effects with different doses of BPA.Objective and hypotheses: To observe vaginal opening day (VOD) hypothalamic kiss-1 gene and ovarian estrogen receptors (ER) gene expression ...

Background: Male genital abnormalities may be associated with environmental endocrine disruptors.Objective and hypotheses: To observe the hypothalamic kiss-1 gene and the testis androgen acceptor (AR) gene expression level changes and the level of serum luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH); testosterone (T) and Inhibin B (INH B) in neonatal rats which exposure to different doses of bisphenol-A (BPA). In order to explore the effect...
