The relative roles of continuous growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH(1-29)NH2) and intermittent somatostatin(1-14)(SS) in growth hormone (GH) pulse generation: studies in normal and post cranial irradiated individuals.
OBJECTIVES: Pulsatile GH release in humans is thought to involve the coordinated interaction of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SS). Disordered GH secretion is seen in most patients following high dose (> 30 Gy) cranial irradiation in childhood and could result from...
