Ghrelin secretion is altered at the onset and after the start of insulin therapy in children with type 1 diabetes. Contemporary regulation of acylated ghrelin (AG), unacylated ghrelin (UAG), and obestatin (OBST) remains undefined in this disease. It is unknown as to whether they could be good predictors of changes in glucose and metabolic control.
