Rename article?

We currently have a growth-hormone-releasing hormone (somatocrinin) article and a somatostatin (growth hormone-inhibiting hormone) article – this should change. It should be either:

somatocrinin and somatostatin

or

growth-hormone-releasing hormone and growth-hormone-inhibiting hormone

Tony Mach (talk) 10:38, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I dsagree. Somatostatin and growth-hormone-releasing hormone (or GHRH) are the two names that are used in the endocrinology field. Growth-hormone-inhibiting hormone is seldom used and somatocrinin is even less common. For instance, by doing a search on the page of Endocrinology (the journal of the Endocrine society) we get 2347 entries for GHRH or "growth hormone releasing hormone" but only 39 for somatocrinin. Similarly somatostatin gives 5731 entries and GHIH or "growth hormone inhibiting hormone" only 5.

Pulsatile secretion?

Has anyone got a reference for the fact that GHRH is pulsatile? The only one I know of is,^[1] but it only shows a couple of hours and the sampling frequency is quite low...

I added the reference in the text, but if someone knows a better one I'd be very happy to know about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gould80 (talk • contribs) 11:52, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Found a better one from sheep studies, added as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gould80 (talk • contribs) 10:40, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New source needed for dead link

The first source cited in the article has a dead link. It's also the most cited one in the article. I think it would be best if it was replaced with a working source. -Pearofapples (talk) 03:13, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note; I've fixed it. I know nothing about the subject of this article though; it's only on my watchlist due to relatively long-standing vandalism. Graham87 04:02, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Growth Hormone-releasing hormone defects

Should there be another content section about any defects related to Growth hormone-releasing hormone for example GHRH deficiency? or any therapies related to this topic?Shania1451 (talk) 03:13, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
