Asparagine potentiates the growth-promoting effect of bovine growth hormone in rats when injected 3h after the latter, but not earlier. Tryptophan potentiates only when injected simultaneously with the hormone. The possible mode of action of growth hormone, and the likelihood that asparagine is a limiting factor in the growth of animals, are discussed.
天冬酰胺在牛生长激素注射3小时后注射时能增强其对大鼠的促生长作用,但在更早时间注射则无此效果。色氨酸仅在与该激素同时注射时才具有增强作用。文中讨论了生长激素可能的作用方式以及天冬酰胺作为动物生长限制因素的可能性。
