Abstract
Summary Growth hormone releasing activity of a guinea-pig hypothalamic extract has been evaluated in guinea pig and rat. Guinea-pig stalk median eminence (SME) extracts injected in the carotid arteries of both guinea pig and rats induce a marked depletion of pituitary growth hormone content. The potential importance of a relative lack of species-specificity for growth hormone releasing factor (s) is considered.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
