Extra Details:: Ghrelin was identified as the endogenous ligand for the growth hormone (GH) secretagogue receptor 1a. Ghrelin, a GH-releasing acylated peptide, stimulated the release of GH from the anterior pituitary through the GH secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). Ghrelin-producing cells was identified in the gastrointestinal tracts of humans by light and electron microscopic immunohistochemistry. Ghrelin also was found in enteric endocrine cells of rats and humans, it was determined in the rat gastrointestinal tract. Ghrelin probably functions not only in the control of GH secretion, but also in the regulation of diverse processes of the digestive system. It plays a role in the regulation of energy balance.
