introduction: ghrelin increases growth hormone secretion and food intake. growth hormone (gh), steroid hormones and opioids are involved in the regulation of food intake. so, they may have a role in the regulation of ghrelin secretion. we determined the effect of intravenous injections of progesterone, gh and morphine or co-administration of these hormones on ghrelin concentration and body weig...

the growth hormone gene could be an attractive candidate gene for milk production in goats. single-strand conformation polymorphism was used to identify polymorphism at the goat growth hormone (ggh) gene. for this purpose, genotyping of 90 talli goat breeds was performed. nine conformational patterns were observed in exon 4 of the ggh gene, with frequencies of 27.7% for the homozygous pattern (...

Despite intense basic research and numerous novel therapies under clinical investigation, cardioprotection as principal pharmacological indication remains as an empty niche. We have rigorously reviewed the investigational development of growth hormone releasing peptides (GHRP) and their clinical niching perspectives. GHRP constitute a group of small synthetic peptides that stimulate the growth ...

AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate three axes: the sympathetic system (adrenaline and noradrenaline), surgical stress-related endocrine factors (prolactin, cortisol, insulin, glucose and growth hormone) and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1alpha, IL-1beta and IL-6) during excisional breast biopsy under local anesthesia (EBBLA). PATIENTS AND METHODS On 14 women undergoing EBBLA, all the afor...
