<prompt> Growth hormone secretion, true isContinuous secretionStimulated by somatostatinStimulated by glucoseStimulated by exercise  <response>: Growth hormone GH, also known as somatotropin or as human growth hormone in its human form, is a peptide hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration in humans.A number of factors are known to affect GH secretion, such as age, sex, diet, exercise, stress, and other hormones. Young adolescents secrete GH at the rate of about 700 mgday, while healthy adults secrete GH at the rate of about 400 mgday. Sleep deprivation generally suppresses GH release, paicularly after early adulthood.Stimulators of growth hormone GH secretion include:peptide hormones GHRH, Ghrelinsex hormonesincreased androgen secretion during pubey in males from testis and in females from adrenal coexestrogeNdeep sleepfastingvigorous exerciseInhibitors of GH secretion include:GHIH somatostatin from the periventricular nucleuscirculating concentrations of GH and IGF-1 negative feedback on the pituitary and hypothalamushyperglycemiaglucocoicoidsdihydrotestosteroneRef: Ganong;s review of medical physiology;24th edition; page no-330
