Neuroendocrine Regulation of Growth Hormone Secretion.
This article reviews the main findings that emerged in the intervening years since the previous volume on hormonal control of growth in the section on the endocrine system of the Handbook of Physiology concerning the intra- and extrahypothalamic neuronal networks connecting growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin hypophysiotropic neurons and the integration between regulators o...
متن کاملInterpreting the von Bertalanffy model of somatic growth in fishes: the cost of reproduction.
We develop a model for somatic growth in fishes that explicitly allows for the energy demand imposed by reproduction. We show that the von Bertalanffy (VB) equation provides a good description of somatic growth after maturity, but not before. We show that the parameters of the VB equation are simple functions of age at maturity and reproductive investment. We use this model to show how the ener...
متن کاملRegulation of somatic growth by the p160 coactivator p/CIP.
A family of p160 coactivators was initially identified based on ligand-dependent interactions with nuclear receptors and thought to function, in part, by recruiting CREB-binding protein/p300 to several classes of transcription factors. One of the p160 factors, p/CIP/AIB1, often amplified and overexpressed in breast cancer, also exhibits particularly strong interaction with CREB-binding protein/...
متن کاملRoles of epidermal growth factor family in the regulation of postnatal somatic growth.
Ligands of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R), known to be important for supporting tissue development particularly in the gut and brain, have also been implicated in regulating postnatal somatic growth. Although optimal levels of both milk-borne and endogenous EGF-R ligands are important for supporting postnatal somatic growth through regulating gastrointestinal growth and maturation...
متن کاملNeuroendocrine regulation and homeostasis.
This special issue of the Journal of Neuroendocrinology comprises five review articles, centred on the theme of the neuroendocrine regulation of homeostasis, and provides a snapshot of the sessions at the 2013 International Workshop in Neuroendocrinology (IWNE). The workshop was held in Santa Clara Resort, in the town of Dourado, S~ao Paulo, Brazil, from 4–7 August 2013 and emerged from the uni...
