Disease relevance of GHRL

  • The experiment was a single reverse design whereby each group was injected twice daily with GHRP-2 (12.5 microg/kg body weight (BW)/day) or saline solution into the jugular vein for a 6-day period [1].
 

High impact information on GHRL

  • A response in plasma IGF-1 concentration to GHRP-2 treatment in the HP group was observed at day 1 (198.9+/-18.1 ng/ml), day 2 (195.2+/-21.1 ng/ml) and day 6 (201.3+/-14.8 ng/ml) (P<0.05) [1].
  • The area under the GH response curve for 180 min after the GHRP-2 injection was not significantly different between the LP and the HP groups at days 1 and 6 [1].
  • This study was conduct to determine the influence of dietary protein on the response of plasma insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) to exogenous growth hormone releasing peptide-2 (GHRP-2 or KP 102) in Holstein steers [1].
