  1. 01LabIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In human fetal pituitary somatotroph cultures, the mechanism of GHRP‑2 on GH secretion differed from that of GHRH and somatostatin.

    In plain wordsIn cells from human fetal pituitary, GHRP‑2 acted on growth hormone release by a different route than GHRH and somatostatin.
