متن کاملInsulin action in growth hormone-deficient and age-matched control rats: effect of growth hormone treatment.
The isolated effect of growth hormone on carbohydrate metabolism in rat skeletal muscle was studied in growth hormone-deficient dwarf rats (dw/dw) treated with either recombinant human growth hormone or saline for 10 days. In addition, age-matched heterozygous (DW/dw) (normal weight and plasma IGF-I) control rats were treated with saline. Growth hormone increased weight gain from 0.1+/-0.1 (s.e...

Further, I assess the cogency of various ...
