Levodopa 32-38 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 2-4 10830457-0 2000 Simultaneous stimulation of growth hormone, adrenocorticotropin and cortisol with L-dopa/L-carbidopa and propranolol in children of short stature. Levodopa 82-88 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 28-42 10830457-9 2000 We conclude that the administration of L-dopa/L-carbidopa and propranolol is useful for the simultaneous evaluation of growth hormone, cortisol and ACTH secretion in children of short stature. Levodopa 39-45 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 119-133 10731533-9 2000 The OWR in patients with PCOS obviously reduced their androstenedione and testosterone levels and insulin-glucose ratios, and increased the GH and GH-IGF-1 responses to L-dopa. Levodopa 169-175 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 140-142 10352397-11 1999 GH response to L-dopa stimulation was blunted in all subjects and it was increased after treatment in both groups. Levodopa 15-21 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-2 10584673-6 1999 In conclusion, in patients with MSA, the GHRH and GH responses to L-dopa were preserved and were similar to responses in age-matched control subjects. Levodopa 66-72 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 41-43 9929973-12 1999 When group I was subdivided into group A (with the A1 allele) and group B (with only the A2 allele), group A had a significantly lower peak GH response to the l-dopa test, lower levels of IGF-I, and retarded bone maturation. Levodopa 159-165 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 140-142 9583205-4 1998 Growth hormone stimulation tests were done with L-dopa and clonidine before or during acidosis therapy and after the correction of metabolic acidosis. Levodopa 48-54 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 9255200-4 1997 Growth hormone reserve was assessed by at least two stimulation tests (clonidine, L-dopa, growth hormone-releasing hormone). Levodopa 82-88 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 9639745-0 1997 [Responses of growth hormone and prolactin to L-Dopa in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome]. Levodopa 46-52 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 14-28 9224438-6 1997 RESULTS: Plasma IGF-I concentrations and the GH responses to sumatriptan, sodium valproate and L-Dopa were significantly lower in older than in younger women. Levodopa 95-101 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 45-47 9178029-8 1997 We conclude that 1) the elevated IR-GHRH in the cord blood plasma originates from the fetus and may have a primary role in enhancing secretion of GH which promotes growth in early human life, and 2) the participations of GHRH in the mechanisms of GH secretion seen after administrations of L-dopa, L-arginine and somatostatin are different. Levodopa 290-296 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 36-38 9004111-5 1996 The delta serum GH during levodopa was 5.7 +/- 6.3 ng ml-1 in DS and 13.1 +/- 9.8 ng ml-1 in controls. Levodopa 26-34 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 16-18 9004111-11 1996 These results indicate that levodopa and clonidine (drugs stimulating hypothalamic GHRH release and secondary pituitary GH release in normal individuals) do not stimulate GH release in DS. Levodopa 28-36 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 83-85 8867520-5 1996 At the beginning of the study, basal hormonal levels were within normal limits, and levodopa administration induced a significant suppression in PRL and TSH levels (both p < 0.01)) and a significant increase in GH (p < 0.01). Levodopa 84-92 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 211-213 8867520-10 1996 The dopaminergic effects of levodopa on TSH, GH, and IGF-I secretion were unchanged by terguride treatment. Levodopa 28-36 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 45-47 8747120-6 1995 In response to L-dopa and arginine hydrochloride stimulation, serum GH rose to above 7 mg/ml in all patients. Levodopa 15-21 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 68-70 8836934-6 1996 As expected, LD/carbidopa increased the concentration of GH and decreased that of PRL. Levodopa 13-15 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 57-59 8406335-7 1993 This suggests a specific but as yet undetermined effect of L-dopa on urinary GH secretion. Levodopa 59-65 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 77-79 7920871-5 1994 Growth hormone responses and GH area under the response curve (AUC) to L-dopa were significantly lower in obese subjects than those in controls. Levodopa 71-77 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 29-31 7920871-6 1994 Pyridostigmine significantly enhanced the GH response to L-dopa in both obese and control subjects. Levodopa 57-63 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 42-44 7920871-7 1994 However, enhanced GH responses in obese subjects were attenuated biologically and lower than those in controls with L-dopa only. Levodopa 116-122 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 18-20 9160587-0 1994 Growth hormone response to clonidine and L-dopa in normal volunteers. Levodopa 41-47 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 8513959-0 1993 Growth hormone response to L-dopa and pyridostigmine in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Levodopa 27-33 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 8210606-0 1993 Growth hormone response after administration of L-dopa, clonidine, and growth hormone releasing hormone in children with Down syndrome. Levodopa 48-54 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 8210606-1 1993 We studied the response of growth hormone secretion after the administration of L-dopa, clonidine, and growth hormone releasing hormone in eight growth-retarded children with Down syndrome aged 1 to 6.5 years. Levodopa 80-86 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 27-41 7603406-3 1995 Growth hormone (GH) reserve was assessed by two different provocative stimuli (Clonidine and L-Dopa). Levodopa 93-99 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 7603406-3 1995 Growth hormone (GH) reserve was assessed by two different provocative stimuli (Clonidine and L-Dopa). Levodopa 93-99 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 16-18 7993663-3 1994 Two patients with propionic acidemia had decreased growth hormone secretion in response to provocative stimuli (intravenous L-arginine and oral levodopa or clonidine); the remaining subjects had sufficient growth hormone secretion. Levodopa 144-152 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 51-65 7920871-0 1994 Reduced growth hormone response to L-dopa and pyridostigmine in obesity. Levodopa 35-41 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 8-22 8243704-0 1993 Diminished growth hormone responses to L-dopa in polycystic ovarian disease. Levodopa 39-45 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 11-25 8262472-4 1993 GH secretion in response to pharmacological stimuli (insulin, arginine and/or L-Dopa) was evaluated when growth failure occurred. Levodopa 78-84 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-2 1961117-0 1991 Age-related decrease in plasma growth hormone: response to growth hormone-releasing hormone, arginine, and L-dopa in obesity. Levodopa 107-113 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 31-45 1346143-5 1992 Our data showed a significant increase (P less than 0.001) in GH, GHRH, and SRIH levels (peak vs. basal values) in response to L-dopa administration in all groups. Levodopa 127-133 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 62-64 1533556-4 1992 GH was evaluated by levodopa (125 mg up to 15 kg, and 250 mg between 15-30 kg), clonidine (0.15 mg m-2) stimulation tests and hGH secretory patterns by the integrated 24 h. GH concentration (IC-GH) using a constant withdrawal pump with continuous blood collection every 30 min. Levodopa 20-28 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-2 1533556-6 1992 Peak serum GH after levodopa and clonidine was found to be below 10 ng ml-1 for both stimulatory tests in seven out of the 20 children studied. Levodopa 20-28 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 11-13 1595643-4 1992 In both controls and treated patients, TRH did not influence GH secretion, whereas L-dopa significantly increased GH levels. Levodopa 83-89 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 114-116 1595643-6 1992 Because L-dopa would stimulate hypothalamic GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) secretion, four untreated patients, unresponsive to L-dopa, received GHRH, and GH levels rose markedly. Levodopa 8-14 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 44-46 1518496-1 1992 In this study, on the basis of the inhibiting action of l-dopa administration on prolactin (PRL) secretion, we evaluated in a number of short children the levels of PRL during the provocative stimuli test with l-dopa in order to identify an index able to give reliability to the test and to investigate whether some differences may exist among the subjects showing a different response in growth hormone (GH) secretion to l-dopa. Levodopa 56-62 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 389-403 1345575-4 1992 TRH 0.2 mg iv blunted GH response to L-dopa 0.5 g p.o. Levodopa 37-43 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 22-24 1961117-5 1991 The mean peak levels of plasma GH in response to GRH, arginine, and L-dopa in obese subjects were 11.3 +/- 2.1, 21.9 +/- 4.4, and 5.2 +/- 0.3 ng/mL in adolescents, 8.2 +/- 1.6, 9.1 +/- 1.5, and 3.1 +/- 0.6 ng/mL in those in their 20s, and 4.5 +/- 0.4, 7.3 +/- 1.4, and 2.8 +/- 0.3 ng/mL in those 30 years or older, respectively, showing a significant decrease in peak GH level with advancing age (P less than .05 to P less than .01). Levodopa 68-74 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 31-33 1782731-11 1991 Standardized exercise is as effective as L-DOPA/P as a stimulation test for growth hormone response in very short children with abnormal growth velocities. Levodopa 41-47 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 76-90 1831841-3 1991 Before treatment, peak serum growth hormone concentrations were less than 10 micrograms/L after levodopa and clonidine stimulation tests in five patients, after clonidine in three patients, and after levodopa in three patients. Levodopa 96-104 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 29-43 1709847-6 1991 Levodopa (L-dopa) [125 to 500mg orally], the physiological precursor of the catecholamines, administered either alone or in combination with carbidopa (50mg orally), to prevent its peripheral decarboxylation to dopamine, and/or the beta-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol (0.75 mg/kg orally), and the alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist clonidine (0.15 mg/m2 orally), are a fairly reliable stimulus of GH release. Levodopa 0-8 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 396-398 1674920-4 1991 Br or L-Dopa was considered to be effective when serum GH or PRL levels were suppressed more than 50% of the basal value. Levodopa 6-12 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 55-57 1674920-9 1991 Suppression of serum GH level by L-Dopa was also observed in the Ss group. Levodopa 33-39 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 21-23 1986445-5 1991 Impaired growth hormone (GH) secretion was present in 6 patients after insulin-induced hypoglycaemia and L-dopa administration. Levodopa 105-111 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 9-23 1986445-5 1991 Impaired growth hormone (GH) secretion was present in 6 patients after insulin-induced hypoglycaemia and L-dopa administration. Levodopa 105-111 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 25-27 2118219-3 1990 GH response to GRH, arginine, and L-dopa in obese subjects was markedly impaired before weight reduction, whereas significantly increased responses were noted after weight reduction (P less than .01). Levodopa 34-40 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-2 1843006-2 1991 The secretion of GH was studied by means of insulin (ITT), glucose (GTT), lysine-vasopressin (LVP), and L-Dopa administrations. Levodopa 104-110 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 17-19 1843006-5 1991 Contrarily, after L-Dopa administration, GH elevations were normal in the two younger and absent in the oldest case. Levodopa 18-24 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 41-43 2279968-0 1990 Growth hormone response to L-dopa and clonidine in autistic children. Levodopa 27-33 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 2279968-8 1990 In the autistic subjects, the L-Dopa-stimulated growth hormone peak was delayed and the clonidine growth hormone peak was premature. Levodopa 30-36 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 48-62 2084146-10 1990 Challenge with either L-dopa or clonidine produced a peak GH response of 2.3 ng/ml (normals = greater than 7 ng/ml). Levodopa 22-28 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 58-60 2270318-1 1990 We sought to clarify the mechanisms of growth hormone (GH) secretion induced by insulin hypoglycemia, L-dopa, and arginine in man. Levodopa 102-108 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 39-53 2118219-0 1990 Very-low-calorie diet-induced weight reduction reverses impaired growth hormone secretion response to growth hormone-releasing hormone, arginine, and L-dopa in obesity. Levodopa 150-156 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 65-79 2118219-4 1990 Impaired integrated GH response to GRH, arginine, and L-dopa in obese subjects was significantly restored after weight reduction (P less than .01). Levodopa 54-60 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 20-22 1697660-4 1990 In 8 children, PD and L-dopa when administered alone induced an equivalent GH rise (area under the response curve, mean +/- SEM: 241.4 +/- 31.1 vs. 202.9 +/- 38.6 micrograms/l/h) while their coadministration had an additive effect (435.4 +/- 41.4 micrograms/l/h; p less than 0.02 vs. PD and L-dopa alone). Levodopa 22-28 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 75-77 1697660-7 1990 These data show that the enhancement of the cholinergic activity by PD increases the L-dopa-induced GH release but fails to modify both Arg- and GAL-induced GH release in short children. Levodopa 85-91 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 100-102 2318945-0 1990 Blindness impairs plasma growth hormone response to L-dopa but not to arginine. Levodopa 52-58 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 25-39 34956087-8 2021 The peak value of growth hormone was 10.26 ng/ml in the levodopa provocation test. Levodopa 56-64 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 18-32 876212-0 1977 [Stimulation of the secretion of somatotropin by administration of Nacom (L-dopa and L-carbidopa) in ambulatory patients with retarded growth]. Levodopa 74-80 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 33-45 2669475-4 1989 GH levels did not increase after TRH or LHRH administration but decreased after L-Dopa and glucose. Levodopa 80-86 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-2 2497615-0 1989 Influence of estrogen administration on growth hormone response to GHRH and L-Dopa in patients with Turner"s syndrome. Levodopa 76-82 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 40-54 2645703-7 1989 Of 53 patients, 23 were able to discontinue prednisone and be maintained on monodrug cyclosporine therapy, and 21 of the 53 patients had growth hormone measured using L-dopa stimulation. Levodopa 167-173 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 137-151 2645703-11 1989 Based on these data we suggest that (1) discontinuation of even very small doses of prednisone may be essential for normalizing growth hormone response to L-dopa and (2) further studies are needed to exploit the growth stimulation effect of recombinant growth hormone in transplanted children. Levodopa 155-161 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 128-142 2495961-4 1989 The treatment significantly increased growth hormone (GH) response to L-dopa administration (P less than 0.025) as well as sleep GH secretion (P less than 0.025). Levodopa 70-76 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 38-52 3177326-4 1988 Growth hormone release was evaluated by arginine and levodopa tests after the end of treatment. Levodopa 53-61 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 3243205-0 1988 Diminished growth hormone secretion in blind males after L-dopa stimulation. Levodopa 57-63 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 11-25 3243205-1 1988 Growth hormone secretion after L-dopa administration (1000 mg p.o.) Levodopa 31-37 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 3243205-3 1988 The average increment of plasma growth hormone after L-dopa stimulation in the blind was below the criterion for a positive response (less than 5 ng ml-1). Levodopa 53-59 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 32-46 3243205-5 1988 After L-dopa stimulation there was a significantly diminished growth hormone response in the young adult blind compared to control volunteers. Levodopa 6-12 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 62-76 3243342-1 1988 Basal and L-dopa-stimulated secretion of growth hormone (GH) was investigated in 10 patients with beta-thalassaemia major. Levodopa 10-16 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 41-55 3243342-1 1988 Basal and L-dopa-stimulated secretion of growth hormone (GH) was investigated in 10 patients with beta-thalassaemia major. Levodopa 10-16 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 57-59 3243342-6 1988 In contrast, the pituitary responsiveness to L-dopa, expressed as the relative maximum response for GH (GH delta %), was significantly higher in the latter two groups (8.5-fold, p less than 0.05, and 10.9-fold, p less than 0.02, respectively). Levodopa 45-51 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 100-102 3243342-6 1988 In contrast, the pituitary responsiveness to L-dopa, expressed as the relative maximum response for GH (GH delta %), was significantly higher in the latter two groups (8.5-fold, p less than 0.05, and 10.9-fold, p less than 0.02, respectively). Levodopa 45-51 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 104-106 2897907-1 1988 This article summarizes the existing neuroendocrine literature and reports the growth hormone response to stimulation with L-dopa and clonidine in male children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Levodopa 123-129 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 79-93 3141449-1 1988 Plasma GH responses to human GHRH, arginine, L-dopa, and insulin-induced hypoglycemia were determined in seven myotonic dystrophy (MD) patients. Levodopa 45-51 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 7-9 3141449-5 1988 The plasma GH responses to a 30-min iv infusion of arginine (0.5 g/kg BW) and oral ingestion of L-dopa (0.5 g) were attenuated to a similar extent, whereas insulin-induced hypoglycemia caused a significant increase in plasma GH in all seven MD patients [mean peak, 17.4 +/- 4.1 (+/- SE) microgram/L]. Levodopa 96-102 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 11-13 3141449-5 1988 The plasma GH responses to a 30-min iv infusion of arginine (0.5 g/kg BW) and oral ingestion of L-dopa (0.5 g) were attenuated to a similar extent, whereas insulin-induced hypoglycemia caused a significant increase in plasma GH in all seven MD patients [mean peak, 17.4 +/- 4.1 (+/- SE) microgram/L]. Levodopa 96-102 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 225-227 3170408-9 1988 After treatment with met-hGH, five of seven subjects had a suppressed GH response to stimulation from either L-dopa/arginine or submaximal exercise. Levodopa 109-116 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 26-28 3145820-0 1988 Growth hormone (GH) responses to arginine and L-dopa alone and after GHRH pretreatment. Levodopa 46-52 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 0-14 3145820-0 1988 Growth hormone (GH) responses to arginine and L-dopa alone and after GHRH pretreatment. Levodopa 46-52 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 16-18 3145820-1 1988 In order to investigate the mechanisms by which arginine and L-dopa cause GH release in humans we measured the GH response to GHRH 1-44 (200 micrograms i.v. Levodopa 61-67 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 74-76 3141449-7 1988 These findings suggest that 1) the impaired GH release after GHRH, arginine, and L-dopa administration in MD patients is not due to somatotroph deficiency, since the GH response to hypoglycemia is well preserved; and 2) insulin-induced hypoglycemia may stimulate GH release at least in part via inhibition of somatostatin release. Levodopa 81-87 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 44-46 3138280-0 1988 Variable plasma growth hormone (GH)-releasing hormone and GH responses to clonidine, L-dopa, and insulin in normal men. Levodopa 85-91 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 32-34 3138280-0 1988 Variable plasma growth hormone (GH)-releasing hormone and GH responses to clonidine, L-dopa, and insulin in normal men. Levodopa 85-91 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 58-60 3138280-7 1988 L-Dopa increased plasma ir-GHRH at 60 min (P less than 0.05) and GH at 60-120 min (P less than 0.05). Levodopa 0-6 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 27-29 3145820-8 1988 L-dopa alone induced a rise in GH levels maximal at 90 min (17.6 +/- 7.4 mU/l, mean +/- SEM) but this rise was abolished by pretreatment with GHRH. Levodopa 0-6 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 31-33 3380074-1 1988 This article summarizes the existing neuroendocrine literature and reports the growth hormone response to stimulation with L-dopa and clonidine in male children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Levodopa 123-129 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 79-93 3123283-2 1987 In normal subjects, the plasma GHRH concentration was increased from the basal value of 9.8 +/- 1.4 pg/ml (mean +/- SE) to 34.8 +/- 3.1 pg/ml at 30 approximately 90 min after oral administration of 500 mg L-dopa, followed by a rise of GH release (plasma GH level from less than 1 ng/ml to 21.7 +/- 4.7 ng/ml) in most cases, indicating that L-dopa stimulates GH secretion via hypothalamic GHRH. Levodopa 340-346 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 31-33 3118729-1 1987 The growth hormone (GH) responses to (A) GRF 1-44, 1 microgram/kg i.v., (B) L-dopa and either arginine, insulin, or glucagon, and (C) exercise were evaluated in 10 children (3 girls, 7 boys; ages 10 years to 15 years, 8 months), 2-10.75 years following cranial irradiation for medulloblastoma (8 patients), pineoblastoma (1 patient), and a fourth ventricular ependymoma (1 patient). Levodopa 76-82 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 4-18 3118729-1 1987 The growth hormone (GH) responses to (A) GRF 1-44, 1 microgram/kg i.v., (B) L-dopa and either arginine, insulin, or glucagon, and (C) exercise were evaluated in 10 children (3 girls, 7 boys; ages 10 years to 15 years, 8 months), 2-10.75 years following cranial irradiation for medulloblastoma (8 patients), pineoblastoma (1 patient), and a fourth ventricular ependymoma (1 patient). Levodopa 76-82 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 20-22 3123283-1 1987 The responses of plasma growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and growth hormone (GH) to oral administration of L-dopa were studied in normal subjects and patients with various endocrine and metabolic diseases to clarify the pathophysiological role of the GHRH-GH axis. Levodopa 114-120 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 24-38 3123283-1 1987 The responses of plasma growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and growth hormone (GH) to oral administration of L-dopa were studied in normal subjects and patients with various endocrine and metabolic diseases to clarify the pathophysiological role of the GHRH-GH axis. Levodopa 114-120 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 58-60 3123283-2 1987 In normal subjects, the plasma GHRH concentration was increased from the basal value of 9.8 +/- 1.4 pg/ml (mean +/- SE) to 34.8 +/- 3.1 pg/ml at 30 approximately 90 min after oral administration of 500 mg L-dopa, followed by a rise of GH release (plasma GH level from less than 1 ng/ml to 21.7 +/- 4.7 ng/ml) in most cases, indicating that L-dopa stimulates GH secretion via hypothalamic GHRH. Levodopa 205-211 growth hormone 1 Homo sapiens 31-33 3123283-4 1987 In patients with acromegaly, the plasma levels of GHRH remained stationary after the L-dopa administration and did not correlate with plasma GH levels.
