Effect of cholinergic enhancement by pyridostigmine on growth hormone secretion in obese adults and children
Ezio Ghigo,Ezio Ghigo,E. Mazza,E. Mazza,Andrea Corrias,Andrea Corrias,E. Imperiale,E. Imperiale,S. Goffi,S. Goffi,Emanuela Arvat,Emanuela Arvat,Jaele Bellone,Jaele Bellone,C. De Sanctis,C. De Sanctis,E. E. Muller,E. E. Muller,Franco Camanni,Franco Camanni +19 more
TL;DR: PD is able to potentiate the blunted GH responses to GHRH in obese adults and children, inducing a GH increase similar to that observed after G HRH alone in normal subjects, suggesting that an alteration of somatostatinergic tone could be involved in the reduced GH secretion in obesity.

Prolactin Responsiveness to Nomifensine in Patients with Hyperprolactinemia of Tumorous or Uncertain Etiology
Franco Camanni,Andrea R. Genazzani,Ferdinando Massara,Vincenzo De Leo,Gian Michele Molinatti,E. E. Muller +5 more
TL;DR: Nomifensine (Nom), an antidepressant which activates dopamine transmission mainly by inhibiting DA reuptake in the central nervous system, was assessed as a tool for distinguishing between tumorous and nontumorous hyperprolactinemia (Hper-PRL).

Failure of pyridostigmine to increase both basal and GHRH-induced GH secretion in the night.
TL;DR: The data seem to indicate that cholinergic neurons controlling GH secretion are already maximally stimulated at night, and suggest that a reduced somatostatinergic tone in the hypothalamus is present during the night.

Impaired prolactin responsiveness to dopamine antagonists in acromegaly
Franco Camanni,Franco Camanni,F. Massara,F. Massara,M. Santià,M. Santià,G. M. Molinatti,G. M. Molinatti,E. E. Muller,E. E. Muller +9 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that a defective tuberoinfundibular DA function or a diminished PRL reserve due to a decrease pituitary lactotroph mass may be responsible for the blunted PRL responsiveness of acromegalics.

Tests of prolactin secretion in the diagnosis of hyperprolactinemic states: nomifensine and domperidone.
F. Massara,F. Massara,Andrea R. Genazzani,Andrea R. Genazzani,Franco Camanni,Franco Camanni,Vincenzo De Leo,Vincenzo De Leo,Gian Michele Molinatti,Gian Michele Molinatti,E. E. Muller,E. E. Muller +11 more
TL;DR: The combined application of nomifensine and domperidone tests holds promise of being a useful method for distinguishing among hyperprolactinemic subjects those with a prolactinoma.
