Tissue: human genomic DNA.
Application: research on growth hormone deficiency (GHD).
For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostics.
The SALSA MLPA Probemix P216 Growth Hormone Deficiency is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the GH1, POU1F1, PROP1, GHRHR, LHX3, LHX4, and HESX1 genes, which are associated with Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD).
GHD is characterised by short stature, delayed growth velocity, and delayed skeletal maturation. Idiopathic growth hormone deficiency is the most common cause of GHD in children.

Inclusion of a positive sample is usually not required, but can be useful for the analysis of your experiments. MRC Holland has very limited access to positive samples and cannot supply such samples. We recommend using positive samples from your own collection. Alternatively, you can use positive samples from an online biorepository, such as the Coriell Institute.
We have no information about specific commercially available positive samples that can be used with this product.
