Growth hormone-releasing hormone: not only a neurohormone

open access: yesTrends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) is mostly thought to act by stimulating the production and release of growth hormone from the pituitary. However, this neuropeptide emerges as a rather pleiotropic hormone in view of the identification of various extrapituitary sources for GHRH production, as well as the demonstration of a direct action of GHRH ...

Age‐Related Characteristics of SYT1‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorder

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives We describe the clinical manifestations and developmental abilities of individuals with SYT1‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder (Baker‐Gordon syndrome) from infancy to adulthood. We further describe the neuroradiological and electrophysiological characteristics of the condition at different ages, and explore the associations ...

Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging for the Evaluation of the Sacroiliac Joint in Pediatric Patients

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background Maturational signal in the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) of skeletally immature youth is often misinterpreted as inflammation. Diagnostic tools that improve specificity are greatly needed. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values from diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), when used with standard imaging, may enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Gonadotropin and kisspeptin gene expression, but not GnRH, are impaired in cFOS deficient mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
cFOS is a pleiotropic transcription factor, which binds to the AP1 site in the promoter of target genes. In the pituitary gonadotropes, cFOS mediates induction of FSHβ and GnRH receptor genes.

Sex differences in medication discontinuation in axial spondyloarthritis.

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective We examined sex differences in medication discontinuation among patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) initiating tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi), interleukin‐17 inhibitors (IL‐17i), or Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi). Methods Using data from the Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness (RISE) Registry (2003–2025), we ...

The role of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-like axis in inflammatory pilosebaceous disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Skin is the largest peripheral endocrine organ and functions as a hormone target and endocrine gland. A cutaneous hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-like axis enables the skin to respond to stress and regulates its steroidogenic activity.

GROWTH-HORMONE-RELEASING FACTOR IN GROWTH HORMONE DEFICIENCY: DEMONSTRATION OF A HYPOTHALAMIC DEFECT IN GROWTH HORMONE RELEASE

open access: yesThe Lancet, 1983
Four patients with hypothalamic tumours or idiopathic growth hormone (GH) deficiency, who were GH deficient by conventional criteria, responded to 200 micrograms synthetic hpGRF-40 with a clear rise in circulating GH.

Functional Integration of Different‐Sex Gonad Transplants Into the Adult Mouse Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study introduces and investigates different‐sex gonad transplants in a mouse model of gender‐affirming hormone therapy. Ovaries and testes implanted into gonadectomized adults exhibit gametogenesis and steroidogenesis independent of the sex of the host.

Ghrelin stimulation of growth hormone-releasing hormone neurons is direct in the arcuate nucleus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundGhrelin targets the arcuate nucleus, from where growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) neurones trigger GH secretion. This hypothalamic nucleus also contains neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurons which play a master role in the effect of ghrelin on ...
