Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Determine whether release of endogenous growth hormone GH-releasing hormone is involved in GH responses to clonidine pyridostigmine levodopa arginine GH-releasing peptide insulin-induced hypoglycemia and exercise in patients with acromegaly

II Determine whether endogenous GH-releasing hormone influences the maintenance of GH hypersecretion
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Growth hormone-releasing hormone antagonist GHRH-A is administered to volunteers and followed with 1 of these challenges insulin clonidine pyridostigmine arginine levodopa growth hormone-releasing peptide or exercise Tests are repeated with normal saline as the control the order of administration control vs pharmacologic stimulation is randomly assigned

Patients receive GHRH-A dose determined in volunteer study thyrotropin-releasing hormone and growth-releasing hormone

All stimulation tests follow an overnight fast
