    Growth Hormone Signaling in Vivo in Humans

    NCT00512473

    Sept 2005 to Apr 2006

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

Objective: GH induces insulin resistance in muscle and fat and in vitro data indicate that this may involve crosstalk between the signaling pathways of the two hormones. Aim: To investigate GH and insulin signaling in vivo in human muscle and fat tissue in response to GH, GH receptor blockade and insulin stimulation..
