Association of the P561T and C422F polymorphisms of the growth hormone receptor gene with facial dimensions.

Association of the P561T and C422F polymorphisms of the growth hormone receptor gene with facial dimensions.

Background: Growth hormone plays a significant role in determining craniofacial morphology. Mutations of its receptor gene might be associated with mandibular prognathism (MP). Purpose: The aim of the current study was to evaluate growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene polymorphisms in relation to facia...
