Contents
Ghrelin is a gastric polypeptide displaying strong GH-releasing activity by activation of the type 1a GH secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) located in the hypothalamus-pituitary axis. GHS-R1a is a G-protein-coupled receptor that, upon the binding of ghrelin or synthetic peptidyl and non-peptidyl ghrelin-mimetic agents known as GHS, preferentially coup...
