Definitions

  • Growth hormone which is secreted from the pituitary, stimulates growth of all tissues of the body that are capable of growing.
  • growth hormone is known to have the following basic effects on the metabolic processes of the body: ( 1 ) Increased rate of protein synthesis in all cells of the body; (2) Decreased rate of carbohydrate utilization in cells of the body; (3) Increased mobilization of free fatty acids and use of fatty acids for energy.
  • a deficiency in growth hormone secretion can result in various medical disorders, such as dwarfism.
  • growth hormone Various ways are known to release growth hormone. For example, chemicals such as arginine, L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), glucagon, vasopressin, and insulin induced hypoglycemia, as well as activities such as sleep and exercise, indirectly cause growth hormone to be released from the pituitary by acting in some fashion on the hypothalamus perhaps either to decrease somatostatin secretion or to increase the secretion of the known secretagogue growth hormone releasing factor (GRF) or an unknown endogenous growth hormone- releasing hormone or all of these.
