Alterations in the Growth Hormone/Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Pathways in Feline GM1 Gangliosidosis1 Open
Cats affected with feline GM1 gangliosidosis, an autosomal, recessively inherited, lysosomal enzymopathy, have progressive neurological dysfunction, premature thymic involution, stunted growth, and premature death. Although increased membr…

Endocrine and metabolite responses to porcine growth hormone administered by sustained release implant for different lengths of time in male pigs. Open
The effects of long term administration of GH on serum concentrations of hormones and metabolites was investigated in intact and castrate male swine. At 10 weeks of age, male swine were assigned to six treatments (n = 10/group): nonimplant…

Obesity and dehydroepiandrosterone/dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate relationships in lean, obese, and meat-type cross-bred boars: responses to porcine growth hormone. Open
As so many variables can affect obesity (age, genetics, health status), new directions, other than reducing or altering diet, are being pursued in controlling obesity in our society. Both dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and GH have reported …

Fertility of Transgenic Female Mice Expressing Bovine Growth Hormone or Human Growth Hormone Variant Genes1 Open
Although growth hormone (GH) exerts various direct and indirect stimulatory effects on gonadal development and function, excessive levels of GH in acromegalic patients and in transgenic animals are often associated with reproductive disord…

Periparturient Changes in Secretion and Mammary Uptake of Insulin and in Concentrations of Insulin and Insulin-Like Growth Factors in Milk of Dairy Cows Open
Mammary uptake of insulin from blood was quantified near parturition in nine dairy cows, some of which were milked prepartum to induce prepartum lactogenesis. Milk samples were immunoassayed for concentrations of insulin, insulin-like grow…

Growth Hormone-Releasing Factor Effects on Pituitary Function, Growth, and Lactation Open
Growth and lactation are complex processes controlled by several metabolic hormones such as insulin, glucagon, and thyroid hormones but most notably growth hormone. Growth hormone secretion is regulated by two hypothalamic hormones, somato…

Effects of Gradation in Protein-Calorie Restriction on the Hypothalo-Pituitary-Gonadal Axis in Young Domestic Fowl Open
The effect of protein-calorie restriction on the circulating concentration of luteinizing hormone (LH) was investigated in the young domestic fowl. Two-week-old broiler chicks were fed isocaloric synthetic diets with varying levels of soy …
