Abstract Intracellular bacterial reservoirs contribute to antibiotic treatment failure by fostering metabolically dormant persister cells that are highly tolerant to killing
GH facilitates growth via IGF-dependent pathways (hepatic secretion of IGF-1, and proliferation and maturation of IGF-sensitive, epiphyseal chondrocytes) and other direct, non-IGF-dependent mechanisms [53,54,55] In SAM, despite raised concentrations of GH, circulating IGF-1 levels remain low, possibly indicating a resistance to GH-mediated production of IGF-1 [44]
