Journal ArticleDOI
Arginine stimulates growth hormone secretion by suppressing endogenous somatostatin secretion.
TL;DR: The results indicate that Arg administered with GHRH led to higher serum GH levels than did a maximally stimulatory dose of G HRH or Arg alone, and the stimulatory effects of Arg are mediated by suppression of endogenous somatostatin secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticotropin releasing factor : a new tool for the differential diagnosis of cushing’s syndrome*
TL;DR: It is concluded that CRF administration is an effective tool in the differential diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and gonadotropin therapy in male patients with idiopathic hypothalamic hypogonadism.
TL;DR: GnRH-releasing hormone leads to a higher testicular volume and a more rapid initiation of spermatogenesis compared with gonadotropin therapy, and endocrine and exocrine testicular function can be normalized by both forms of therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF)-stimulation test in normal controls and patients with disturbances of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis
TL;DR: Intravenous application of 100 µg synthetic ovine corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) led to stimulation of ACTH-secretion in nine normal controls, with a maximum 30 min after CRF.
