  • Title: [Control of growth hormone release by growth hormone-releasing factor and prostaglandin E2 in a system of perfused rat anterior pituitary cells].
    Author: Fafeur V, Tiberghien C, Haour F, Dray F.
    Journal: Reprod Nutr Dev (1980); 1988; 28(2A):229-31. PubMed ID: 3131855.
    Abstract:
    Using superfused rat pituitary cells we showed that the growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) increased growth hormone (GH) secretion in a similar manner in terms of kinetics and amplitude of responses. Moreover, our data suggest that they stimulate GH secretion mainly by cAMP-dependent mechanisms.
