abstract：UNLABELLED:ABSTRACT. Several data show that meal intake and nutritional status regulate circulating ghrelin concentrations in humans. Ghrelin mainly circulates in two different forms: octanoyl and des-octanoyl ghrelin. Most circulating ghrelin is des-octanoyl ghrelin which is considered inactive because it lacks endocr...
