Abstract
GHRH is a neuropeptide associated with a diverse variety of activities in human physiology and immune responses. The present study reviews the latest information on the involvement of GHRH in the immune system and inflammation, suggesting that GHRH antagonists may deliver a new therapeutic possibility in disorders related to immune system dysfunction and inflammation.
期刊介绍:
Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders is an international journal dedicated to the field of endocrinology and metabolism. It aims to provide the latest advancements in this rapidly advancing field to students, clinicians, and researchers. Unlike other journals, each quarterly issue of this review journal focuses on a specific topic and features ten to twelve articles written by world leaders in the field. These articles provide brief overviews of the latest developments, offering insights into both the basic aspects of the disease and its clinical implications. This format allows individuals in all areas of the field, including students, academic clinicians, and practicing clinicians, to understand the disease process and apply their knowledge to their specific areas of interest. The journal also includes selected readings and other essential references to encourage further in-depth exploration of specific topics.
