1 Administration of E(2) compared with Pl followed by saline infusion: 1) stimulated pulsatile GH secretion ( micro g/liter.6 h), viz., 12 +/- 3.3 (Pl) and 18 +/- 4.6 (E(2)) (mean +/- SEM, paired comparison, P < 0.05); 2) halved the time latency (min) to achieve peak GH secretion after GHRH injection, 24 +/- 2.2 (Pl) and 12 +/- 2.1 (E(2)) (P < 0.01); and 3) did not alter the mass of GH secreted ( micro g/liter) in response to a maximally effective dose of GHRH, 30 +/- 7.2 (Pl) and 37 +/- 11 (E(2)).
