Reduced release of growth hormone (GH) by the pituitary gland in response to arginine has been proposed as a marker of MSA, but current evidence is conflicting. To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the arginine GH stimulation test, Pellecchia et al. measured the response of GH to arginine ...
Herein, we report a case of an 8 -years-old girl who became unresponsive with poor perfusion and no palpable pulse for 10 seconds, immediately post receiving Arginine for Growth Hormone Stimulation testing, and almost 120 minutes after receiving Clonidine for Growth Hormone Stimulation testing. ...
The reliability and reproducibility of provocative stimuli of growth hormone (GH) secretion in the diagnosis of GH deficiency are still controversial both in childhood and in adulthood. The combined administration of GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and arginine (ARG), which likely acts via inhibition of...
摘要: Provides information on a study which investigated the ability of L-Arginine and growth hormone-releasing peptide-2 to act synergistically in healthy young adults and tests the hypothesis that the synergy is gender dependent. Methods used in the study; Results and discussion....
Pituitary Stimulation Used as a diagnostic pituitary stimulant to measure human growth hormone (hGH) reserve for conditions such as panhypopituitarism, pituitary dwarfism, chromophobe adenoma, postsurgical craniopharyngioma, hypophysectomy, pituitary trauma, acromegaly, gigantism, and problems of growth and sta...
test Pediatric endocrinology A test that measures hGH secreted by the pituitary gland in response to arginine, which is used to evaluate infants with growth retardation and adults with pituitary tumors Abnormal values Failure to ↑ hGH may indicate hypopituitarism or dwarfism. SeeGrowth hormone. ...
Semax最初是根据ACTH(Adrenocorticotropic Hormone,促肾上腺皮质激素)的分子结构开发的。正在进行的研究表明,Semax 可能对患有认知疾病(包括痴呆、中风、注意力缺陷多动症等)的个人非常有用,可能更好的增加注意力和记忆力,减少焦虑和抑郁症状,提高思维清晰度和注意力,减少压力的影响,因此在Semax被赋予了“脑力肽”的...

Growth hormone (GH) deficiency (GHD) of childhood onset: reassessment of GH status and evaluation of the predictive criteria for permanent GHD in young adu... GH secretion was reevaluated after completion of GH treatment at a mean age of 19.2 +/- 3.2 yr in 35 young adults with childhood-...
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are the key mediators of hormone signaling. Generally, ligand binding to NRs [for example estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)] in the cytoplasm leads to their nuclear translocation finally activating expression of target genes. Alternatively, some NRs dimerize already in absence ...
