Thiol-Disulfide Exchange in Human Growth Hormone
… this goal, model peptides derived from human growth hormone (hGH) and intact hGH were used to investigate reaction mechanisms and kinetics in solution and solid-state environments. The results will be useful in the rational development of stable, safe and efficacious protein formulations that …

Molecular Mechanisms of Growth Hormone Induced Muscle Hypertrophy
… the response of different aged rats to a growth hormone secreting tumor, (2) examine the presence and significance of extrahepatic insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and IGF-II mRNA in rats bearing GH$\sb{3}$ tumors, and (3) evaluate the presence of oncogene mRNA in muscles from rats …

Mechanisms of growth hormone inhibition of adipose tissue growth
Growth hormone (GH) is a poly-peptide hormone produced by the anterior pituitary. Growth hormone not only stimulates body and muscle growth but also inhibits adipose tissue growth. The overall objective of this study was to determine the mechanisms by which GH inhibits adipose tissue growth. Three …

The Effects of Altered Growth Hormone Signaling on Murine Metabolism
Growth hormone signaling influences longevity but the mechanism through which decreased GH action extends lifespan in mice is unknown. It is likely that the key to understanding this phenomenon, and the process of aging itself, is to understand the alterations in metabolism caused by decreased GH …

Effects of Growth Hormone on Circulating Resistin Levels in Mice
… secreting a number of anti- and proinflammatory hormones collectively known as adipokines. With obesity, the balance shifts towards an increase in proinflammatory hormones. One such adipokine, resistin, is found to have a positive correlation with inflammation and with insulin resistance. The aim …

A functional analysis of growth hormone receptor promoter regions in swine
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 08/01/2026] Growth hormone (GH) and its receptor (GHR) play critical roles in regulating growth, development, and reproductive function in animals. GHR expression in the liver is critical for postnatal growth and is regulated by tissue-specific promoters. While promoter 1 (P1) is …

Resolving the Role of POU1F1 in Human Growth Hormone Locus Activation
The human growth hormone gene ( hGH-N) is regulated by a distal locus control region (LCR) composed of five deoxyribonuclease I hypersensitive sites (HSs). The region encompassing HSI and HSII contains the predominant pituitary somatotrope-specific hGH-N activation function of the LCR. This …

Calcium and growth hormone secretion in the domestic fowl (Gallus domesticus)
… molecule required for secretagogue induced growth hormone release from somatotroph cells of the chicken anterior pituitary. Growth hormone release can be induced via different intracellular pathways and these in turn can act to produce a synergistic hormone release. This thesis sought to …

COGNITIVE DECLINE WITH AGE: ROLE OF STRIATAL CHOLINERGIC SYSTEM AND GROWTH HORMONE
Normal aging can result in cognitive decline even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease. Successful identification of neurobiological changes that occur in association with age-related cognitive decline is needed to develop strategies to restore or preserve cognitive function in elderly …

Growth hormone and insulin response to intravenous arginine injection in the lamb
… effects of single of multiple arg challenges on growth hormone (GH) secretion. Indwelling jugular catheters were inserted. At the beginning of each of 3 trials, lambs were injected with saline and blood samples were collected for 90 min to establish baseline GH. Blood sampling continued at 5-min …
