Ghrelin and growth hormone secretagogues, physiological and pharmacological aspect [PDF]
[Abstract] The first “growth hormone secretagogues” (GHSs) were discovered by Bowers et al. in 1977. In 1996 the GHSs receptor (GHS-R 1a) was cloned. The endogenous ligand for this receptor, ghrelin, was not identified until 1999.

Osteosarcoma associated with diamond-blackfan anaemia: a case of a child receiving growth hormone therapy [PDF]
Purpose: Diamond–Blackfan anaemia (DBA) is a rare pure congenital red cell aplasia, usually presenting in infancy or early childhood. The literature suggests a predisposition to haemopoietic malignancy but in addition solid tumours have been reported ...

RNAseq analysis of fast skeletal muscle in restriction-fed transgenic coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) : an experimental model uncoupling the growth hormone and nutritional signals regulating growth [PDF]
Background Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) transgenic for growth hormone (Gh) express Gh in multiple tissues which results in increased appetite and continuous high growth with satiation feeding. Restricting Gh-transgenics to the same lower ration (TR)

Growth hormone (GH)-independent stimulation of adiposity by GH secretagogues
Growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) stimulate growth hormone (GH) secretion, which is lipolytic. Here we compared the effects of twice daily s.c. treatment of GH and the GHS, ipamorelin, on body fat in GH-deficient (lit/lit) and in GH-intact (+/lit and +/

Growth hormone increases dendritic spine density in primary hippocampal cell cultures
Objective: Growth hormone (GH) is widely known for its peripheral effects during growth and development. However, numerous reports also suggest that GH exert pro-cognitive, restorative, and protective properties in the brain.
