Product details
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is a recombinant form of somatotropin, a 191–amino acid peptide hormone produced by the anterior pituitary gland. It acts primarily through the growth hormone receptor (GHR), triggering downstream IGF-1 signaling and influencing protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and cellular growth processes.
-
Receptor Targets: Growth hormone receptor (GHR)
-
Key Feature: Activates GH–IGF-1 signaling axis
-
Research Focus Areas: Tissue growth, metabolic regulation, cellular repair mechanisms
-
Common Models: Endocrine research, muscle and bone metabolism studies
-
Mechanistic Interests: JAK-STAT signaling, IGF-1 induction, anabolic/catabolic balance
It is used in research to study endocrine signaling cascades, growth regulation, metabolic adaptation, and hormone-driven cellular responses.
