Dynamic Expression of Imprinted Genes in the Developing and Postnatal Pituitary Gland

Dynamic Expression of Imprinted Genes in the Developing and Postnatal Pituitary Gland

In mammals, imprinted genes regulate many critical endocrine processes such as growth, the onset of puberty and maternal reproductive behaviour. Human imprinting disorders (IDs) are caused by genetic and epigenetic mechanisms that alter the expression dosage of imprinted genes. Due to improvements i...
