A healthy 68-year-old man presented in the emergency room with a sudden episode of headache and vomiting together with disequilibrium and crural paresis. The laboratory evaluation revealed hyponatraemia (Na+115 mEq/L). Head MRI demonstrated a giant 40×25×31 mm pituitary lesion (figures 1 and 2). Laboratory studies revealed growth hormone (GH) 0.1 ng/mL

Growth Hormone (GH)-Releasing Peptide Stimulation of GH Release from Human Somatotroph Adenoma Cells: Interaction with GH-Releasing Hormone, Thyrotropin- Releasing Hormone, and Octreotide. [PDF]
The synthetic hexapeptide GH-releasing peptide (GHRP; His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2) specifically stimulates GH secretion in humans in vivo and in animals in vitro and in vivo via a still unknown receptor and mechanism.

Abstract.The majority of pituitary adenomas occur sporadically, however, about 5% of all cases occur in a familial setting, of which over half are due to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN‐1) and Carney’s complex (CNC). Since the late 1990s we have described non‐MEN1/CNC familial pituitary tumours that include all tumour phenotypes, a condition ...
