There are disclosed certain novel compounds identified as spiro piperidines and homologs which promote the release of growth hormone in humans and animals. This property can be utilized to promote the growth of food animals to render the production of edible meat products more efficient, and in humans, to treat physiological or medical conditions characterized by a deficiency in growth hormone secretion, such as short stature in growth hormone deficient children, and to treat medical conditions which are improved by the anabolic effects of growth hormone. Growth hormone releasing compositions containing such spiro compounds as the active ingredient thereof are also disclosed.
已公开的某些新型化合物被鉴定为螺哌啶和同源物,它们能促进人和动物体内生长激素的释放。这种特性可用于促进食用动物的生长,使可食用肉类产品的生产更有效率;在人类中,可用于治疗以生长激素分泌不足为特征的生理或医学病症,如生长激素缺乏症儿童的身材矮小,以及治疗因生长激素的同化作用而得到改善的医学病症。此外,还公开了含有此类螺化合物作为活性成分的生长激素释放组合物。
