Age-specific effects of insulin on the secretion of somatotropic hormone

Abstract

It is shown that insulin is able to alter the secretion of somatotropic hormone directly at the level of the pituitary. The direction of the regulatory effect of insulin depends on the age of the animals donating the pituitary cells, while the intensity of the effect of insulin is largely modulated by glucocorticoid and thyroid hormone.
