    abstract = {The gut hormone ghrelin plays an important physiological role 
  in modulating GH secretion, insulin secretion and glucose metabolism. To test 
  the hypothesis that long term effect of peripheral ghrelin on serotonin and 
  insulin levels in ruminant species, ten male lambs were 2 months old with an 
  average body weight of 26 kg and 2 groups according to ghrelin treatment in 
  group I, animals were fed <I>ad libitum</I> in the group II, animals were fed 
  <I>ad libitum</I> and intravenously injected with the ghrelin. In the laboratory, 
  researchers have shown that ghrelin administration was significantly decreased 
  plasma serotonin, insulin and glucose concentrations in the long term. Although, 
  the results obtained by ghrelin treatment in the long term are not enough clear 
  in ruminant species and further research should validate the obtained results 
  before applying this information on relationships between ghrelin, insulin and 
  serotonin.}
