Official title
Glucagon, Ghrelin and Growth Hormone as Counterregulatory Hormones
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Glucagon has been used for decades as a test of growth hormone (GH) reserve. The pathway by which GH is stimulated by glucagon is not established. Acyl ghrelin has been shown to increase GH levels and to be stimulated by an increase in adrenergic activity. The proposed study will test the concept that with the fall in blood glucose it is likely that there is a sympathetic discharge which contributes to the increase in acyl ghrelin and indirectly leads to the increase in GH and cortisol.
