Mutation of the Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone Receptor in the little Mouse,ph cells to stimulate the synthesis and secretion of GH (.). The actions of GHRH are opposed by those of somatostatin, a peptide hormone of hypothalamic origin that acts to suppress pituitary growth hormone secretion; together, GHRH and somatostatin are thought to be the predominant mediators of the

Functional Variants of the MSH Receptor (MC1-R), Agouti, and Their Effects on Mammalian Pigmentatiohat plays an important role in the regulation of mammalian pigmentation. No diseases and in fact no pigmentation phenotypes in humans have been definitively linked to this receptor. Nevertheless, the study of the MC 1 -R has introduced at least two novel paradigms to the G-protein signaling field: f

Dopamine Receptors in Human Disease,tems (.). In the central nervous system, dopamine affects locomotion and behavior. In the cardiovascular system, dopamine affects heart rate and myocardial contractility. Dopamine effects on blood pressure and blood volume have been postulated to involve both brainstem and direct renal mechanisms, a

Chorionic gonadotropin produced by the placenta acts on the corpus luteum and promotes development of the fetal testes in the first trimester of pregnancy.
