  • Mice models of growth hormone insensitivity
    Patent number: 6080911
    Abstract: 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.
