Amelioration of cardiovascular risk factors with partial biochemical control of acromegaly
(2008)Objective Complete remission of acromegaly is associated with favourable changes in cardiovascular risk parameters. We evaluated the effects of suboptimal therapy on haemodynamic, metabolic, inflammatory and coagulation ... -
Blockage of ghrelin-induced prolactin secretion in women by bromocriptine
(2010)Objective: To investigate the effect of bromocriptine on ghrelin-induced PRL secretion in women. Design: Longitudinal study. Setting: University hospital. Patient(s): Ten healthy, normally cycling women. Intervention(s): ... -
Effect of ghrelin and metoclopramide on prolactin secretion in normal women
(2011)Background: Administration of ghrelin to women stimulates the secretion of PRL but the mechanism is not known. Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the dopamine receptor blocker, metoclopramide, on ... -
Effect of Ghrelin and Thyrotropin-releasing Hormone on Prolactin Secretion in Normal Women
(2010)It is known that ghrelin stimulates the secretion of prolactin in women. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exogenous thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on ghrelin-induced prolactin release. Ten healthy ... -
Effect of ghrelin on gonadotrophin secretion in women during the menstrual cycle
(2009)It has been suggested that ghrelin may affect reproduction in animals by decreasing pituitary LH secretion. The role of ghrelin on LH secretion in women has not been investigated. Our aim was to assess the effect of ghrelin ... -
Feeding behavior during long-term hexarelin administration in young and old rats
(2008)Ghrelin, a 28-amino-acid peptide isolated from the stomach, is the natural ligand of the GH-secretagogues receptor-la (GHS-R1a) and, so far, the only discovered circulating appetite-stimulating hormone. Similarly to ghrelin, ... -
Ghrelin: New Insights into Female Reproductive System-Associated Disorders and Pregnancy
(2012)Ghrelin is considered the endogenous ligand of growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1a, and its modulatory actions have been demonstrated in a large array of endocrine and nonendocrine functions. According to recent ... -
Human ghrelin decreases pituitary response to GnRH in superovulated ewes
(2013)In addition to its metabolic role, ghrelin has been found to suppress luteinizing hormone secretion in many species acting mainly at the hypothalamic level. The objectives of the present study were to test the hypothesis ... -
Inhibitory Effect of Submaximal Doses of Ghrelin on Gonadotropin Secretion in Women
(2014)The effect of ghrelin on gonadotropin secretion has been equivocal. Recent data have shown an inhibitory effect of repeated injections of ghrelin on nocturnal LH and FSH secretion in women. The aim of this study was to ... -
The mammary gland in small ruminants: major morphological and functional events underlying milk production - a review
(2014)The importance of small ruminants to the dairy industry has increased in recent years, especially in developing countries, where it has a high economic and social impact. Interestingly and despite the fact that the mammary ... -
Ovulation induction and successful pregnancy outcome in two patients with Prop1 gene mutations
(2004)Objective: To describe ovulation induction and pregnancy outcome in a unique model of genetically determined combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD), with respect to the necessity for GH substitution therapy. Design: ... -
Supplementation of lactating ewes with a glucogenic preparation or beta-carotene in mid- to late lactation on subsequent milk yield and luteinizing hormone secretion
(2007)The effects of a glucogenic preparation (Nutrimix((R))) or beta-carotene (Rovimix((R)) beta carotene) supplementation of ewes during mid- to late-lactation on their milk yield were assessed in a study where 66 Chios-breed ...
