    Differential effect of insulin-like growth factor-I and growth hormone on hypothalamic regulation of growth hormone secretion in the rat

    Pharmacological administration of either growth hormone (GH) or insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) were reported to inhibit endogenous GH release in humans and in the laboratory animal. We have evaluated the...
