The CB1 receptor mediates the peripheral effects of ghrelin on AMPK activity but not on growth hormone release.

The CB1 receptor mediates the peripheral effects of ghrelin on AMPK activity but not on growth hormone release.

This study aimed to investigate whether the growth hormone release and metabolic effects of ghrelin on AMPK activity of peripheral tissues are mediated by cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and the central nervous system.
