pubmed:abstractText
Growth hormone (GH) secretion declines with age and is affected by body composition. The signal that mediates the latter relationship remains III-defined. Leptin, the protein product of the adipocyte specific ob gene, is thought to accurately reflect fat mass and could therefore be a candidate to influence GH secretion. We have therefore investigated the relationship between GH status, leptin and body composition in normal and GH-deficient elderly subjects.
