Regulation of ghrelin secretion by somatostatin analogs in rats.
OBJECTIVE Ghrelin is a hormone present in the plasma in two forms: octanoylated and des-octanoylated ghrelin. In pathophysiological conditions such as Prader-Willi syndrome and ghrelinoma, elevated ghrelin plasma levels are associated with pathological obesity. Clinical studies have shown that somatostatin downregulates ghrelin plasma levels in healthy volunteers. The aim of this study was to i...
متن کاملA Model of Irreversible Electro-Oxidation Inhibited by Either Adsorption or Surface Complexation of the Product
Theoretical models of irreversible electro-oxidation of dissolved reactant giving dissolved product on the stationary planar electrode are developed for the conditions of staircase cyclic voltammetry. In the first model it is assumed that the product is adsorbed on the electrode surface and that the adsorbate prevents the transfer of electrons. In the second model it is assumed that the electro...
متن کاملAcetylcholine regulates ghrelin secretion in humans.
Ghrelin secretion has been reportedly increased by fasting and energy restriction but decreased by food intake, glucose, insulin, and somatostatin. However, its regulation is still far from clarified. The cholinergic system mediates some ghrelin actions, e.g. stimulation of gastric contractility and acid secretion and its orexigenic activity. To clarify whether ghrelin secretion undergoes choli...
متن کاملAngiotensin II-stimulated secretion of arginine vasopressin is inhibited by atrial natriuretic peptide in humans.
We investigated the effect of the intravenous infusion of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on the response of plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) levels to intravenous infusion of angiotensin II (ANG II) in healthy individuals. Intravenous infusion of ANP (10 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1)) slightly but significantly decreased plasma AVP levels, while intravenous infusion of ANG II (10 ng·kg(-1)·min(-1)) resu...
متن کاملInhibitory effect of ghrelin on insulin and pancreatic somatostatin secretion.
OBJECTIVE Ghrelin is a 28 amino acid residue peptide identified in both human and rat stomach and which acts as an endogenous ligand for the GH secretagogue receptor (GHS-R) and stimulates GH release. GHS-Rs are expressed in a number of tissues, including the pancreas, and ghrelin-like immunoreactivity is present in peripheral plasma, where its levels increase during fasting and decrease after ...
