  • Title: [HGH release after I.M. glucagon injection].
    Author: del Valle Núñez CJ, Ortega Amaya JL, Gayoso Gómez F.
    Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 1975; 8(1):42-7. PubMed ID: 1122081.
    Abstract:
    Intramuscular injection of glucagon was used to assess HGH release in 31 normal children and 4 hypopituitary dwarfs. The peak response in controls was obtained at 120 min. with values (nanograms) of 12.93 plus or minus 5.18 (p smaller than 0.0005). Values at 60 and 180 min. were equally significant when compared with basal (7.04 plus or minus 9.24, p smaller than 0.025 and 6.74 plus or minus 6.65, p smaller than 0.001). Hypopituitary dwarfs did not respond to glucagon injection.
