Abstract
SUMMARY: Growth hormone and prolactin levels during standardized exercise tests were measured in ten normal male volunteers, with and without previous intravenous administration of 4 mg naloxone. No significant influence of naloxone on hormone release could be observed. The lack of effect indicates that an opioid pathway is not involved in exercise‐induced growth hormone and prolactin release in humans, in contrast to that in rats.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
