The Role of Ghrelin and Growth Hormone Secretagogues Receptor on Rat Adipogenesis [PDF]
Endocrinology, 2003 Recent research progress indicates a close link between ghrelin, a natural ligand of GH secretagogues receptor (GHS-R), and both the metabolic balance and body composition. To clarify the involvement of ghrelin and GHS-R in the process of adipogenesis, we measured the expression of GHS-R and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPAR ...

Obestatin stimulates glucose-induced insulin secretion through ghrelin receptor GHS-R
Scientific Reports, 2017 Orexigenic hormone ghrelin and anorexic hormone obestatin are encoded by the same preproghrelin gene. While it is known that ghrelin inhibits glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), the effect of obestatin on GSIS is unclear.

Growth Hormone Secretagogue Receptor Expression in Human Pituitary Tumors1 [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1998 The GH secretagogue (GHS) receptor (GHS-R) has been characterized and cloned. It is a member of a family of seven transmembrane receptors and is closely related to the neurotensin and TRH receptors. To determine the expression of this receptor in normal anterior pituitary and in 24 human pituitary adenomas, we analyzed GHS-R messenger ribonucleic acid (

Ghrelin accelerates synapse formation and activity development in cultured cortical networks [PDF]
, 2014 Background: While ghrelin was initially related to appetite stimulation and growth hormone secretion, it also has a neuroprotective effect in neurodegenerative diseases and regulates cognitive function. The cellular basis of those processes is related to

Effect of Ghrelin on the Cardiovascular System
Biology, 2022 Ghrelin, an n-octanoyl-modified 28-amino-acid-peptide, was first discovered in the human and rat stomach as an endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). Ghrelin-GHS-R1a signaling regulates feeding behavior and energy balance,

Signal transduction mechanism of the seabream growth hormone secretagogue receptor
FEBS Letters, 2004 We have recently cloned the full‐length cDNAs of the two growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) subtypes from a teleost species, the black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegeli) [Mol. Cell. Endocrinol. 214 (2004) 81], namely sbGHSR‐1a and sbGHSR‐1b.

Ghrelin causes hyperphagia and obesity in rats. [PDF]
, 2001 Ghrelin, a circulating growth hormone–releasing pep-tide derived from the stomach, stimulates food intake. The lowest systemically effective orexigenic dose of ghrelin was investigated and the resulting plasma ghre-lin concentration was compared with ...
