Description HGH:
Human growth hormone (HGH), also commonly referred to as Somatotropin. Human growth hormone (HGH) is a hormone that is produced in the human body and excreted into the blood by the somatotrope cells of the anterior pituitary gland. It is a single-chain protein that is composed of 191 amino acids with a molecular weight of approximately 22,000 Daltons. Human growth hormone (HGH) secretion has many direct and indirect effects on the human body. First, Human growth hormone (HGH) stimulates the liver's production of insulin-like growth factor (IGH-1). Because Human growth hormone (HGH) stimulates the liver's production of IGF-1, the effects of both GH and IGF-1 are listed below. Synthetic version of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is called Somatropin (191 amino acid sequence growth hormone). It is identical to human body's own Human growth hormone (HGH). However that is not the case for Somatrem (192 amino acid sequence growth hormone). But we will talk about that later Direct and Indirect Effects of Human growth hormone (Human growth hormone)Somatotropin on the Human Body: Stimulates division and multiplication of the chondrocytes of cartilage Increases both calcium retention and the mineralization of bones Human growth hormone (HGH) Stimulates cell growth in every organ of a human body Increases metabolism Repairs damaged cells Induces protein synthesis Decreases protein degradation Stimulates the immune system Promotes lipolysis Increases glucose transport In the human body, Human growth hormone (HGH) |
