Functions of GH

Main pathways in endocrine regulation of growth.


Effects of growth hormone on the tissues of the body can generally be described as anabolic (building up). Like most other protein hormones, GH acts by interacting with a specific receptor on the surface of cells.
Increased height during childhood is the most widely known effect of GH. Height appears to be stimulated by at least two mechanisms:

1. Because polypeptide hormones are not fat-soluble, they cannot penetrate sarcolemma. Thus, GH exerts some of its effects by binding to receptors on target cells, where it activates the MAPK/ERK pathway.[22] Through this mechanism GH directly stimulates division and multiplication of chondrocytes of cartilage.
2. GH also stimulates, through the JAK-STAT signaling pathway[23], the production of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1, formerly known as somatomedin C), a hormone homologous to proinsulin.[24] The liver is a major target organ of GH for this process and is the principal site of IGF-1 production. IGF-1 has growth-stimulating effects on a wide variety of tissues. Additional IGF-1 is generated within target tissues, making it what appears to be both an endocrine and an autocrine/paracrine hormone. IGF-1 also has stimulatory effects on osteoblast and chondrocyte activity to promote bone growth.

In addition to increasing height in children and adolescents, growth hormone has many other effects on the body:

• Increases calcium retention, and strengthens and increases the mineralization of bone
• Increases muscle mass through sarcomere hyperplasia
• Promotes lipolysis
• Increases protein synthesis
• Stimulates the growth of all internal organs excluding the brain
• Plays a role in fuel homeostasis
• Reduces liver uptake of glucose
• Promotes gluconeogenesis in the liver[25]
• Contributes to the maintenance and function of pancreatic islets
• Stimulates the immune system.

I had gone through the post. The details produced in the post are really very useful for many of the people. The drugs are not recommended unless prescribed by a doctor. Illegal drugs will stunt for growth, shrink our penis, gives us headaches, lead to bouts of anger, and can even start to kill of living tissue. I read a story of a body builder who abused steroids all his life. He eventually just passed out one way and was hospitalized for a full year. At one point he looked down at his legs to see maggots eating his flesh, because his cells were just decaying on him.



HGH will stump his growth??
you have given examples of all the extreme side effects of steroid abuse, and a crazy story to back it up, I once read a story of a man who drank so much water he drowned, better stay away from water than,

HGH is expensive and prob the hardest to get your hands on(good quality) and takes a solid 3-6month to start showing effect, what are you trying to achieve out off this??
