Effects of unilateral arterial infusion of GH and IGF-I on tibial longitudinal bone growth in hypophysectomized rats
We have studied the effect of local arterial infusion of bacterially produced human growth hormone (hGH), insulinlike growth factor I (IGF-I), or pituitary-derived ovine prolactin (oPRL) on longitudinal bone g...
