M Tschöp, DL Smiley, ML Heiman - Nature, 2000 - nature.com The discovery of the peptide hormone ghrelin, an endogenous ligand for the growth hormone
secretagogue (GHS) receptor 1, 2 , yielded the surprising result 3 that the principal site of ghrelin
synthesis is the stomach and not the hypothalamus. Although ghrelin is likely to regulate ... Cited by 1693 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
