Biological function

Growth hormone 1 (GH1/somatotropin/hGH) is a pituitary-derived peptide hormone that promotes postnatal body growth and influences protein, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. GH1 signals through the growth hormone receptor and contributes to induction of insulin-like growth factor pathways that mediate many growth-promoting effects.

Research context

Growth hormone 1 (GH1/hGH/somatotropin) is widely studied in endocrine signalling, growth regulation, metabolism and GH-IGF axis research.
