Sexual dimorphism on growth hormone secretion after oral glucose administration
(Thieme, 2012-02-16)
[Abstract] Sexual dimorphism of GH secretion is unclear in humans. There is evidence that oral glucose (OG) administration initially decreases and subsequently stimulates GH secretion. Our aim was to study fasting GH ...
Growth hormone, ghrelin and peptide YY secretion after oral glucose administration in healthy and obese women
(Thieme, 2011-06-10)
[Abstract] The mechanism of the altered GH secretion in obesity is unclear. There is evidence that oral glucose (OG) administration initially decreases and subsequently stimulates GH secretion. Ghrelin is a peptide that ...
The decreased growth hormone response to growth hormone releasing hormone in obesity is associated to cardiometabolic risk factors
(Hindawi, 2010)
[Abstract] The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between GHRH-induced GH secretion in obese premenopausal women and cardiovascular risk markers or insulin resistance. Premenopausal obese women, aged ...
Altered fasting and postprandial plasma ghrelin levels in patients with liver failure are normalized after liver transplantation
(Bioscientifica para European Society for Endocrinology, 2010)
[Abstract]
Context Anorexia is a problem of paramount importance in patients with advanced liver failure. Ghrelin has important actions on feeding and weight homeostasis. Experimental data exist, which suggest that ghrelin ...
Effect of oral glucose administration on rebound growth hormone release in normal and obese women: the role of adiposity, insulin sensitivity and ghrelin
(PLoS ONE, 2015-03-17)
[Abstract] Context. Metabolic substrates and nutritional status play a major role in growth hormone (GH) secretion. Uncovering the mechanisms involved in GH secretion following oral glucose (OG) administration in normal ...
