Growth hormone-binding protein: II. studies in pygmies and normal statured subjects
TJ Merimee, G BAUMANN… - The Journal of Clinical …, 1990 - academic.oup.com
The serum concentrations of a specific GH-binding protein, derived from the GH receptor,
were assayed in sera from 62 African pygmies and 101 normal statured controls. Samples
were assayed in the absence and presence of excess GH using 2 separatory procedures.
Interassay variability for samples was corrected by a standard reference pool of sera from
adults assayed with all unknown samples. Results were expressed as specific binding
relative to this standard. The mean percent relative specific binding for GH increased with …
