Abstract
ⶠPlasma acyl ghrelin (AG) decreases more than desacyl ghrelin (DG) at 2 h post-LPS. ⶠBoth forms equally decrease at 5 and 7 h and return to pre-injection levels at 24 h. ⶠAt 2 h post-LPS, plasma GOAT protein decreases while gastric GOAT protein increases. ⶠThis may account for lower plasma acyl ghrelin levels. ⶠDecline in AG and DG is not secondary to increased temperature and blood glucose.
