Growth Hormone

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A polypeptide that is secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). Growth hormone, also known as somatotropin, stimulates mitosis, cell differentiation and cell growth. Species-specific growth hormones have been synthesized.  despite X ref, coord with RECOMBINANT PROTEINS for recombinant somatotropin; HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE is also available   
See Also Receptors, Somatotropin
