Genetically lean and fat sheep differ in their growth hormone response to growth hormone-releasing factor.

Domestic animal endocrinology - 1 Apr 1991

Suttie J M, Lord E A, Gluckman P D, Fennessy P F, Littlejohn R P

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to compare the ovine growth hormone (oGH) responses of 5 genetically lean and 5 genetically fat 9 month old ram lambs (selected on the basis of their ultrasonic backfat thickness) given two 0.3 micrograms kg-1 liveweight intravenous injections of synthetic human pancreatic GH releasing factor analogue Nle27 hGHRF29 -NH2 (GRF-29) 150 minutes apart. Plasma oGH response curves were analysed...
