Target Information
Ghrelin acts as the ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1 (GHSR). It stimulates the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland, enhances appetite, induces adiposity, and promotes gastric acid secretion. Ghrelin is also involved in growth regulation. In mice, ghrelin has several physiological functions, including appetite regulation, energy metabolism, weight control, and influencing neurobehavior. Ghrelin-deficient mice tend to have lower body weight and fat accumulation, highlighting its critical role in fat metabolism. Additionally, ghrelin may influence eating behavior in mice by modulating taste and the reward value of food.
