Ultradian oscillations in somatostatin and growth hormone-releasing hormone mRNAs in the brains of adult male rats.

Effect of manganese on luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone secretion in adult male rats.

Recently studies have demonstrated that low doses of (Mn(+2)) in the form of manganese chloride can stimulate specific puberty-related hormones and advance signs of pubertal development in immature female and male rats. In the present study, we used an in vitro system to evaluate the ability of 0, 50, 250, and 500 microM doses of Mn(+2) to stimulate luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) ...

Comparison of Expression of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone and Its Receptor Splice Variant 1 in Different Stages of Endometriosis

Somatostatin regulates hepatic growth hormone sensitivity by internalizing growth hormone receptors and by decreasing transcription of growth hormone receptor mRNAs.

Somatostatins (SSs), a diverse family of peptide hormones, have been shown to inhibit the release of growth hormone (GH) from the pituitary. In this study, we used rainbow trout to determine whether or not SSs affect growth in an extrapituitary manner, in particular, by decreasing GH sensitivity in liver. SS-14 significantly decreased hepatic GH binding in fish implanted (5.8 x 10(-11) mol/h) f...

Persistent changes in somatostatin and neuropeptide Y mRNA levels but not in growth hormone-releasing hormone mRNA levels in adult rats after intrauterine growth retardation.

A reduction in the availability of oxygen and nutrients across the placenta in the last trimester of pregnancy may lead to intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) which, in turn, may cause a persistent postnatal growth failure. However, it is unknown whether this persistent growth retardation is centrally mediated through alterations in the components of the growth hormone (GH)-axis. We tested t...
