The ups and downs of growth hormone secretagogue receptor signaling [PDF]
The growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) has emerged as one of the most fascinating molecules from the perspective of neuroendocrine control. GHSR is mainly expressed in the pituitary and the brain, and plays key roles regulating not only growth hormone secretion but also food intake, adiposity, body weight, glucose homeostasis and other complex

Growth hormone secretagogues: history, mechanism of action, and clinical development
Growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) are a generic term to describe compounds that increase growth hormone (GH) release. GHSs include agonists of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS‐R), whose natural ligand is ghrelin, and agonists of the growth

The controversial role of the vagus nerve in mediating ghrelin's actions: gut feelings and beyond
Ghrelin is a stomach-derived peptide hormone that acts via the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) and displays a plethora of neuroendocrine, metabolic, autonomic and behavioral actions.
