- In adults, too much of this hormone causes bones, cartilage, body organs, and other tissues to increase in size. (nih.gov)
Luteinizing2
- Point E shows the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge that initiates ovulation at mid-cycle. (proprofs.com)
- Vantas slows prostate tumor growth by delivering histrelin, which also is a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist, or LHRH agonist. (bioworld.com)
Insulin5
- CJC 1295 promotes the release of Growth Hormone (GH) and Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1). (operationmilitarykids.org)
- Diagnosis is clinical, by skull and hand x-rays, and by measurement of levels of growth hormone and insulin -like growth factor 1. (msdmanuals.com)
- GH controls synthesis of insulin -like growth factor 1 (IGF-1, also called somatomedin-C), which largely controls growth. (msdmanuals.com)
- When GH enters the blood, this signals the liver to produce another hormone, called insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). IGF-I is the hormone that actually causes bones and body tissue to grow. (nih.gov)
- Insulin signaling through the insulin receptor increases linear growth through effects on bone and the GH-IGF-1 axis. (medscape.com)
Tissues2
- During the course of folliculogenesis, growth is achieved by cell proliferation and formation of follicular fluid, whereas development involves cytodifferentiation of all the cells and tissues in the follicle. (glowm.com)
- Although early studies of IGSF1 ran into roadblocks and blind alleys, armed with the results of detailed clinical investigations, powerful mouse models, and new reagents, the field is now poised to discover IGSF1's function in endocrine tissues, including the pituitary and testes. (medscape.com)
Receptor Gene3
- Relationship between the Expression of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone Receptor Gene and Endocrinologic Profiles in GH-Secreting Pituitary Adenomas. (e-enm.org)
- Correlation between exon 3 polymorphism of growth hormone receptor gene and the responses to rhGH therapy. (cdc.gov)
- Pathogenic and likely pathogenic genetic alterations and polymorphisms in growth hormone gene (GH1) and growth hormone releasing hormone receptor gene (GHRHR) in a cohort of isolated growth hormone deficient (IGHD) children in Sri Lanka. (cdc.gov)
Levels of the hormone1
- Low levels of the hormone leads to low levels of calcium. (uhhospitals.org)
Enough growth hormone1
- It's also an endocrine problem if a kid isn't growing as quickly as expected because his or her pituitary gland isn't making enough growth hormone. (childrensmn.org)
Excessive3
- A rare acquired endocrine disease related to excessive production of growth hormone (GH) and characterized by progressive somatic disfigurement (mainly involving the face and extremities) and systemic manifestations. (orpha.net)
- This excessive growth makes the child extremely large for his or her age. (canestar.com)
- Gigantism refers to abnormally high linear growth (see the image below) due to excessive action of insulinlike growth factor I (IGF-I) while the epiphyseal growth plates are open during childhood. (medscape.com)
Genetic2
- Some causes of poor growth are genetic (a problem with a person's genes). (kidshealth.org)
- 7. Shimon I, Melmed S. Genetic basis of endocrine disease. (fucsalud.edu.co)
Diseases1
- Their pathophysiology was described and the mechanisms underlying female hormone-related diseases were investigated. (bvsalud.org)
Anterior Pitui1
- Ipamorelin is a growth hormone-releasing peptide or GHRP that promotes the release of growth hormones from the anterior pituitary gland. (bocapharm.is)
Hyperplasia1
- 6. Frohman L, Kineman R. Growth hormone-releasing hormone and pituitary development, hyperplasia and tumorigenesis. (fucsalud.edu.co)
Body's growth1
- By stimulating the functions of the pituitary gland, Ipamorelin helps with the body's growth regulation, the regulation of the thyroid gland function, pain relief, and temperature regulation. (bocapharm.is)
