| 1 | In thyrotoxicosis before treatment ACTH response to ghrelin was two fold higher (107.4 +- 26.3) than those of controls (54.9 +- 10.3), although not significantly. | Ghrelin | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | There was a trend to a decreased ACTH response to ghrelin after 3 months of euthyroidism (35.6 +- 5.3; P = 0.052), but after 6 months this decrease was non-significant (50.7 +- 14.0). | Ghrelin | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | Our results suggest that the pathways of GH release after ghrelin/GHRP-6 and GHRH are similarly affected by thyroid hormone excess and hypothalamic mechanisms of ACTH release modulated by ghrelin/GHSs may be activated in this situation. | Ghrelin | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
