Biochem/physiol Actions

Ghrelin (GHRL), an orexigenic peptide, is primarily produced and secreted by the gastrointestinal tract. Its expression is correlated with tumor depth and tumor differentiation. It also plays an important role in tumor growth in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Ghrelin secretion is changed during the onset and after the start of insulin therapy in children with type 1 diabetes. It may act as a good predictor of changes in glucose and metabolic control.
