Evidence for a role for insulin and growth hormone in overnight regulation of 3-hydroxybutyrate in normal and diabetic adolescents.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the relative effects of growth hormone and insulin on ketogenesis during puberty. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We studied overnight changes in plasma ketones--3-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate--in 35 normal and 26 IDDM adolescents at different stages of puberty. The diabetic...
