[ Method] With real-time quantitative PCR, the liver GHR mRNA level was separately detected in two varieties of sheep at 2, 30, 60, 90 and 120 days old. Then the data was analyzed with SPSS software. E Result] The liver GHR gene was highly expressed in 2 day-old sheep, but the expression level fell to the lowest point at 30 days old and then rose continuously; the change trend after 30 days old was positively correlated with the cumulative growth curves of sheep （ P 〈0.05） ; GHR mRNA level was lower in Kazak sheep than in Xinjiang fine-wool sheep during 2 -90 days old, but the difference was ex- tremely significant （P 〈0.01 ） only at 2 days old and 90 days old. [ Conclusion] The male Kazak sheep and Xinjiang fine-wool sheep have similar model of developmental changes of liver GHR mRNA and the differences are smaller between these two species; GHR gene may play an important role in the regulation of sheep growth.展开更多
