Structural basis for activation of the growth hormone-releasing hormone receptor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) controls metabolism and tissue growth through binding to the cognate receptor (GHRHR). Here authors report the structure of the human GHRHR bound to its endogenous ligand and the stimulatory G protein which reveals

Novel mechanisms of growth hormone regulation: growth hormone-releasing peptides and ghrelin [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2006
Growth hormone secretion is classically modulated by two hypothalamic hormones, growth hormone-releasing hormone and somatostatin. A third pathway was proposed in the last decade, which involves the growth hormone secretagogues.

Growth Hormone (GH)-Releasing Peptide Stimulation of GH Release from Human Somatotroph Adenoma Cells: Interaction with GH-Releasing Hormone, Thyrotropin- Releasing Hormone, and Octreotide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The synthetic hexapeptide GH-releasing peptide (GHRP; His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2) specifically stimulates GH secretion in humans in vivo and in animals in vitro and in vivo via a still unknown receptor and mechanism.

Advanced bone age as an indicator facilitates the diagnosis of precocious puberty

open access: yesJornal de Pediatria (Versão em Português), 2018
Objective: Diagnosis of central precocious puberty has always been challenging in clinicalpractice. As an important method in the diagnosis of central precocious puberty, luteinizinghormone‐releasing hormone stimulation test is complex and time‐consuming.

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) promotes wound re-epithelialisation in frog and human skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There remains a critical need for new therapeutics that promote wound healing in patients suffering from chronic skin wounds. This is, in part, due to a shortage of simple, physiologically and clinically relevant test systems for investigating candidate ...

Anosmin-1 modulates fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 signaling in human gonadotropin-releasing hormone olfactory neuroblasts through a heparan sulfate-dependent mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Defects of either anosmin-1 or fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) are known to underlie hereditary Kallmann's syndrome (KS), a human disorder of olfactory and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal ontogeny.

Effects of human growth hormone on gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons in mice [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Pediatrics, 2010
PurposeRecombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) has been widely used to treat short stature. However, there are some concerns that growth hormone treatment may induce skeletal maturation and early onset of puberty.

Effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment on final adult height in boys with idiopathic central precocious puberty [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2021
Purpose There are few reports on the therapeutic effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists in boys with central precocious puberty, and studies reported in Korea are very rare.
