Inhibin secretion in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome before and after treatment with progesterone
(2011)
Objectives: It has been suggested that inhibin secretion is altered in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the contribution of a preceding luteal phase has not been taken into account. The aim of the ...
Ovarian control of pituitary sensitivity of luteinizing hormone secretion to gonadotropin-releasing hormone in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome
(2009)
This study investigated the ovarian control of LH responsiveness to GnRH in anovulatory women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It is suggested that the enhanced pituitary sensitivity of LH secretion to GnRH in ...
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 ...
Growth hormone and prolactin response to ghrelin during the normal menstrual cycle
(2009)
Objective It has been suggested that exogenous oestradiol augments ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion in postmenopausal women. Whether endogenous oestrogens exert a similar effect during the normal menstrual ...
Growth hormone response to submaximal doses of ghrelin remains unchanged during the follicular phase of the cycle
(2013)
Background: Previous data have shown that ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion is augmented in women by exogenous but not by endogenous estrogens. The purpose of this study was to examine the response of GH to ...
The progesterone positive feedback effect in women after ovariectomy
(2013)
Various ovarian substances regulate the secretion of gonadotrophins during the menstrual cycle, but there are still several unclarified issues. The aim of this study was to investigate the positive feedback effect of ...
The effect of estrogens on plasma ghrelin concentrations in women
(2010)
Background: Data regarding the possible effects of estrogen on ghrelin secretion in humans are limited and contradictory. Aim: To investigate the effect of estradiol (E2) on ghrelin levels in normal pre- and post-menopausal ...
Changes in pituitary sensitivity to GnRH in estrogen-treated post-menopausal women: evidence that gonadotrophin surge attenuating factor plays a physiological role
(2004)
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in pituitary response to GnRH in post-menopausal women during substitution treatment with exogenous estrogen and progesterone. METHODS: Seven healthy ...
FSH modulatory effect on human granulosa cells: a gene-protein candidate for gonadotrophin surge-attenuating factor
(2011)
Previous evidence indicates a homology of gonadotrophin surge-attenuating factor (GnSAF) to the carboxyl terminal of human serum albumin (HSA) and the ability of human granulosa cells to produce mRNA transcripts corresponding ...
