Growth hormone deficiency in adulthood and the effects of growth hormone replacement: a review. Growth Hormone Research Society Scientific Committee

, 1998
"GH DEFICIENCY in the human adult most commonly results from pituitary or peripituitary tumors and their treatment (1). The majority of these tumors are benign, and in a large series, pituitary adenoma was the commonest cause of adult hypopituitarism (2).

Analysis of Craniofacial and Extremity Growth in Patients with Growth Hormone Deficiency during Growth Hormone Therapy

, 2009
Background/Aims: There are many controversies regarding side effects on craniofacial and extremity growth due to growth hormone ( GH) treatment. Our aim was to estimate GH action on craniofacial development and extremity growth in GH-deficient patients ...

Genetics of ısolated growth hormone deficiency

Journal of Clinical Research in Pediatric Endocrinology, 2010
When a child is not following the normal, predicted growth curve, an evaluation for underlying illnesses and central nervous system abnormalities is required, and appropriate consideration should be given to genetic defects causing growth hormone (GH) deficiency (GHD). Because Insulin-like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I) plays a pivotal role, GHD could also be

Tissue‐Stimulator Platform for Electrically Stimulating Pancreatic β‐Cells for Long‐Term Functional Regulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a tissue‐stimulator platform for seamless electrode integration with pancreatic tissue, applying uniform electrical stimulation through optimized design with biohybrid 3D printing. Advantageous effects of electrical stimulation on β‐cell function were observed, including enhanced calcium signaling, islet morphology, and maturation.
