Glucagon-stimulation testGHRH-arginine testGrowth hormone deficiency (GHD) must be confirmed before starting treatment in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Most studies use the growth-hormone-releasing hormone plus arginine (GHRH-arginine) test. No data are available on the glucagon stimulation...
Objective:Verifying the association between glycemic fluctuation and GH response in the glucagon stimulation test. Basal evaluation of growth hormone (GH) has poor diagnostic accuracy due to its pulsatile secretion. GH-stimulation tests are used for an adequate evaluation of somatotrophic axis. Various...
A) insulin B) epinephrine C) glucagon D) growth hormone E) cortisol a. Name one hormone that alters circulating blood glucose levels after administration. b. Explain how the pancreatic endocrine system (insulin and glucagon) may be chan...
Glucagon-like peptide-2(GLP-2)is a polypeptide hormone produced and secreted from enteroendocrine L-cells,which can specifically promotes the growth of intestinal mucosa and enhances epithelial repair in the setting of gut injury.The biological actions of GLP-2 are transduced by the GLP-2 receptor...
It is well ac- cepted that TPN leads to significant reductions in small intes- tinal mucosal growth and morphology (1, 5). The effects of TPN on small intestinal function are, however, not as straight- forward (2, 3), but nevertheless indicate that the presence of luminal contents is ...

In contrast, growth and weight gain of young pigs is fast and continuous [34], thus providing a sensitive test system for detecting growth related drug effects within a reasonable period of time. Nevertheless translation of findings of the present study to adolescent type 2 diabetic patients is ...

Actin redistribution is often associated with activation of cellular proliferation, as well as upon stimulation of adenylate cyclase. To study the effects of GLP-2 on the distribution of F-actin, cells treated with or without the hormone were fixed and stained using labeled phalloidin. As shown ...
Brain GLP-1 might control growth factor signaling in the brain (1), maintain the redox homeostasis of the gastrointestinal tract via the brain-gut axis (2) and control peripheral metabolism to regulate systemic inflammation (3). Failure of the brain GLP-1 signaling leads to dysfunctional redox ...
