Intracerebroventricular injection of RFRP-3 delays puberty onset and stimulates growth hormone secretion in female rats
BACKGROUND Puberty onset is a complex, organized biological process with multilevel regulation, and its physiopathological mechanisms are yet to be elucidated. RFRP-3, the mammalian ortholog to gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone, is implicated in inhibiting the synthesis and release of gonadotropin in mammals. However, it is unclear whether RFRP-3 participates in regulating pubertal development. ...
متن کاملPeripheral injection of growth hormone stimulates protein intake in aged male and female Lou rats.
It is well established that growth hormone (GH) induces growth rate and food efficiency and stimulates protein accretion in young mammals. Senescence is characterized by metabolic and hormonal disorders, particularly a decrease in protein turnover, which could be correlated to a decrease in GH and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) secretion. We have shown that body weight, protein intake, an...
متن کاملLong term malnutrition and mRNAs expression of RFRP-3 and KiSS-1 in hypothalamus of female ovariectomized rats
Introduction: Arginine-phenylalanine-amide-related peptide-3 (RFRP-3) is an inhibitor of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion and an appetizer. Kisspeptin is a stimulator of GnRH and a regulator of energy metabolism. The objectives of the present study were to compare the effect of long term malnutrition on expression of RFRP-3 mRNA in dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH) and Ki...
متن کاملThe Pyrethroid Pesticide Esfenvalerate Suppresses the Afternoon Rise of Luteinizing Hormone and Delays Puberty in Female Rats
BACKGROUND One of the most widely used classes of insecticides is the synthetic pyrethroids. Although pyrethroids are less acutely toxic to humans than to insects, in vitro studies have suggested that pyrethroids may be estrogenic. OBJECTIVES We assessed pubertal effects by orally administering 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 mg/kg/day of the type II pyrethroid esfenvalerate (ESF) to female rats beginning ...
متن کاملEndotoxin injection increases growth hormone and somatostatin secretion in sheep.
Endotoxin has been shown to stimulate GH secretion in human and sheep. However, changes in hypothalamic neurohormones involved in the GH regulation by endotoxin have never been studied in vivo. In sheep it is possible to collect hypophysial portal blood (HPB) and quantify GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SRIH) secretion under physiological conditions. The purpose of this study was ...
