The developing gut-lung axis: postnatal growth restriction, intestinal dysbiosis, and pulmonary hypertension in a rodent model.

abstract：:GH insensitivity may be an inherited condition or may arise as a consequence of disease of malnutrition. Laron syndrome is the most severe form of GH insensitivity, arising from an absent or defective GH receptor. Less severe forms of GH insensitivity, however, may exist, resulting in short stature but in few other fe...
