TL;DR: A highly polymorphic Cytosine–Adenosine (CA) repeat sequence microsatellite has been identified in the promoter region of IGF1 gene and its influence on clinical and biochemical characteristics of acromegalic patients is investigated.

TL;DR: Although patients showing typical features of acromegaly had been described prior to Pierre Marie’s report in 1886, observations concerning clinical signs and symptoms assumably caused by hypersecretion of growth hormone and other pituitary hormones were reported only several years later.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of consecutive doses of GHRH on GH secretion.
TL;DR: The data from the literature, including those reported in the paper of Suri et al., show that the pituitary gland is not able to maintain GH elevated responses to two successive GHRH administration, and the different GH responsiveness of adults and children might reflect an age-dependent and different mode of neuroendocrine control.
