Abstract

Under physiological circumstances growth hormone (GH) is secreted in bursts after the onset of sleep and a few hours postprandially. Because most relevant studies have employed constant or repeated infusion of high doses of GH, the possible metabolic effects of such bursts are largely unknown. We have studied seven healthy, male subjects for 7 h after an intravenous bolus of 1) 140 micrograms GH and 2) saline. When injected, serum GH rose to a peak of 21 +/- 3 micrograms/l 10 min after injection. GH caused 1) a rapid, sustained 55% decrease in forearm glucose uptake (P less than 0.05) followed by increases toward control values, 2) a delayed 5 mg/100 ml decrease in plasma glucose (P less than 0.05), and 3) significant 60-250% increases (P less than 0.05) in all measured lipid intermediates (nonesterified fatty acids, 3-hydroxybutyrate, and glycerol) 120-160 min after administration followed by decreases to below control values (P less than 0.05). GH did not influence circulating levels of insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, or insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), or isotopically determined glucose turnover. Physiological bursts of GH secretion appear to have acute insulin antagonistic effects with maximal effect on lipolysis after 2 h. These effects are reversed after 4 h. Therefore, GH could play a key role in regulation of diurnal rhythms of substrate levels and fuel utilization in humans.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
