Description
HGH Technical Overview
HGH (Human Growth Hormone) is a protein hormone investigated for its activity at the growth hormone receptor.
The predominant mature human GH isoform contains 191 amino acid residues. GHR-associated signaling includes JAK2 and STAT5 activation and contributes to the regulation of IGF-1 expression.
