Fourth Annual Report on Stress
نویسنده
چکیده
Parts III and IV deal with the actions of growth hormone in fat, nitrogen, and carbohydrate metabolism. The actions of pancreatic and adrenal hormones in these systems are related to and contrasted with those of growth hormone, resulting in a wide coverage of hormonal influences on metabolism. The work is at a level where the fundamental mechanisms of action can be discussed in terms of individual enzyme systems. These middle sections are in many ways the heart of the symposium. With a necessary scepticism, some speakers suggested that the purest growth hormone preparations might contain more than one active principle, a problem for future work to resolve. In Part V are collected the papers on the influence of growth hormone on the mammary gland and the effects of all endocrine factors reviewed. To complete the symposium there are two papers concerning the administration of growth hormone to humans. The paucity of the clinical information to date is disappointing, but the good evidence that growth hormone holds a central position in the regulation of many body processes will surely inspire further work. The intention of the sponsors of the symposium was to advance basic research; through the medium of this symposium report their aims will be well served.
