Acute levodopa (LD) application and exercise release human growth hormone (GH). An
earlier trial showed, that combined stimulus of exercise and LD administration is the best …

Levodopa (LD) application improves motor symptoms and reduces cortisol levels in patients
with Parkinson's disease (PD). Endurance exercise enhances cortisol release in proportion …

Levodopa (LD) application improves motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease
(PD) patients. Little is known on further effects of LD, which induced lower plasma levels of …

Growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) secretion during a 24-hr period was evaluated in
10 patients with Parkinson's disease who had ingested 2–5 g of l-dopa per day for 2.5 to 4 …

In order to clarify the roles of cholinergic and serotonergic neurotransmission in the
mediation of exercise-induced growth hormone (GH) release, normal young volunteers of …

To test the hypothesis that heightened sympathetic outflow precedes and predicts the
magnitude of the growth hormone (GH) response to acute exercise (Ex), we studied 10 men …

500 mg of levodopa was administered orally to 8 normal subjects and induced an increase
of growth hormone (GH) and a decrease of prolactin (PRL) secretion. The levodopa-induced …

In 19 patients with Parkinson disease, we studied the relationship of the therapeutic effect of
levodopa, or dyskinesia, to the plasma content of DOPA and growth hormone (GH). Those …

The effect of acute exercise at three graded intensities on plasma growth hormone (GH) and
prolactin (PRL) concentrations was examined in three groups of healthy male volunteers …

The aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of endogenous growth hormone-
releasing hormone (GHRH) in the growth hormone (GH) release during strenuous exercise …
