is not clear now and we have to do more research for more information about the cause of this syndrome. Maybe when the body of pregnancy women loss a large amount of blood after delivery then blood will go to important organs such as heart, brain, kidney. So the blood that go through in circulation will be change, in this case, the pituitary will become lacking of blood.

There are numerous potential applications of transgenic technology to develop novel and improved strains of livestock. Practical applications of transgenics include to improve the characteristics of farm animals (e.g. fast growth, disease resistance), to obtain high value products (recombinant pharmaceutical proteins and food supplements useful for human health), to mimic human diseases like artherosclerosis, diabetes etc. and to obtain organs for xenotransplantaion. 1.

Imagine a young boy happily frolicking in the leaves on a brisk fall day. Suddenly, he is gasping for air, because he’s suffering from an asthma attack. The frightened boy reaches in his pocket and carefully pulls out his treasured asthma inhaler. Taking a few puffs from this miraculous lifeline, he breathes easily again. Animal research is responsible for the development of asthma inhalers. Without it, this boy and thousands of asthma sufferers like him would be dead. Did you know that animal
1.0 INTRODUCTION Genetic engineering is a technique involving the artificial addition, deletion or rearrangement of sequences of bases in DNA in order to alter the observable form and function of an organism (Hynes, 1989). Animal cell and tissue culture techniques are used concurrently with genetic engineering. Tissue culture is the general term for the culture of cells, tissues, or organ of animal on a suitable environment (Ryan, 2008). Involvement of both these techniques can be called as genetic
