hormone releasing factor ≤vs≥ hormone inhibiting factor
Answers
Hormone releasing factor :-
The consequence of growth hormone-releasing hormone action is an increase in the circulating levels of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 which, in turn, act back on the hypothalamus to prevent growth hormone-releasing hormone production and to stimulate somatostatin secretion.
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) is a hypothalamic peptide that stimulates both the synthesis and secretion of growth hormone. Ghrelin is a peptide hormone secreted from the stomach. Ghrelin binds to receptors on somatotrophs and potently stimulates secretion of growth hormone.
Hormone inhibiting factor :-
Somatostatin (also known as growth hormone-inhibiting hormone (GHIH) or somatotropin release-inhibiting factor (SRIF)) is a peptide hormone that regulates the endocrine system and affects neurotransmission and cell proliferation via interaction with G-protein-coupled somatostatin receptors and inhibition of the release of numerous secondary hormones.
Somatostatin inhibits a variety of physiological functions in the gastrointestinal tract, such as gastrointestinal motility, gastric acid production, pancreatic enzyme secretion, bile secretion and colonic fluid secretion. It also inhibits the secretion of pancreatic and intestinal hormones such as insulin, glucagon, secretin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP).
