Application of Genetic Engineering Technologies for the Study of Pituitary Development and Neoplasms

Our studies and review of the literature reported by other investigators indicate the essential use of genetic engineering technology to study the physiologic and pathologic mechanisms of transcription of hormone production and the mechanisms of secretion of appropriate bioactive peptides from the p...

Description
Summary:	Our studies and review of the literature reported by other investigators indicate the essential use of genetic engineering technology to study the physiologic and pathologic mechanisms of transcription of hormone production and the mechanisms of secretion of appropriate bioactive peptides from the prohormones in the endocrine cells which are equipped with secretory granules.
