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.

Effect of tesamorelin in people with HIV with and without dorsocervical fat: Post hoc analysis of phase III double-blind placebo-controlled trial

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Science, 2023
Tesamorelin, a synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone, is indicated for the reduction of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in people with HIV. Here, we performed a post hoc analysis of participants receiving tesamorelin for 26 weeks in a phase III ...

The decrease in growth hormone (GH) response after repeated stimulation with GH-Releasing hormone is partly caused by an elevation of somatostatin tonus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Repeated injection of GHRH leads to a decrease in the GH response in normal subjects. Arginine (Arg) stimulates GH secretion by suppression of hypothalamic somatostatin.

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.

Peripheral and central mechanisms involved in hormonal control of male and female reproduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Reproduction involves the integration of hormonal signals acting across multiple systems togenerate a synchronized physiological output. A critical component of reproduction is the luteinizinghormone (LH) surge, which is mediated by estradiol (E2) and ...

Corticotropin-releasing hormone as the homeostatic rheostat of feto-maternal symbiosis and developmental programming In utero and neonatal life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A balanced interaction between the homeostatic mechanisms of mother and the devel- oping organism during pregnancy and in early neonatal life is essential in order to ensure optimal fetal development, ability to respond to various external and internal ...

Human Pancreas GH-Releasing Factor Analog Restores High-Amplitude GH Pulses in CNS Lesion-Induced GH Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Lesions of the ventromedial-arcuate (VMH-ARC) region of the hypothalamus result in impaired growth accompanied by a marked suppression in spontaneous GH secretory bursts. We studied the effects of an analog of the recently characterized human pancreas GH-

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.
