Laron syndrome (LARS) [MIM:262500]: A severe form of growth hormone insensitivity characterized by growth impairment, short stature, dysfunctional growth hormone receptor, and failure to generate insulin-like growth factor I in response to growth hormone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10870033, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14678285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2779634, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8137822, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8450064, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8504296, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9024232, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9661642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9851797}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; Growth hormone insensitivity, partial (GHIP) [MIM:604271]: A disease characterized by partial resistance to growth hormone resulting in short stature. Short stature is defined by a standing height more than 2 standard deviations below the mean (or below the 2.5 percentile) for sex and chronological age, compared with a well-nourished, healthy, genetically relevant population. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7565946}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
