Ghrelin is a relatively novel multifaceted hormone that has been found to exert a plethora of
physiological effects. In this review, we found/confirmed that ghrelin has effect on all body …

The major active product of ghrelin gene is a 28-amino acid peptide acylated at the serine 3
position with an octanoyl group, called simply ghrelin. Ghrelin has a multiplicity of …

Ghrelin, a hormone that is produced mainly by the stomach, was identified originally as the
endogenous ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) receptor. Ghrelin might also …

The only molecularly identified ghrelin receptor is the growth hormone secretagogue
receptor GHSR1a. Its natural ligand, ghrelin, is an acylated peptide whose unacylated …

Ghrelin, a newly discovered bioactive peptide, is a natural endogenous ligand of the growth
hormone (GH) secretagogue receptor and initially identified as a strong stimulant for the …

Ghrelin is a small peptide released primarily from the stomach. It is a potent stimulator of
growth hormone secretion from the pituitary gland and is well known for its regulation of …

Ghrelin is a peptide hormone mainly produced by the stomach, which strongly stimulates the
release of growth hormone (GH) via the GH secretagogue receptor 1a (GHSR-1a) located in …

In 1976, small peptide growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) were discovered and found
to promote growth hormone (GH) release from the pituitary. The GHS receptor (GHS-R) was …

Oligopeptide derivatives of metenkephalin were found to stimulate growth‐hormone (GH)
release directly by pituitary somatotrope cells in vitro in 1977. Members of this class of …

Chronic exposure to hypoxia, a common adverse consequence of most pulmonary
disorders, can lead to a sustained increase in pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), right …
