Somatropin Found Less Effective Than Somatrogon, a Long-Acting Human Growth Hormone Molecule, in Treatment of Growth Hormone Deficiency
Somatropin is a protein synthetic hormone that is commonly used in injecting it to the body to induce puberty. It is produced by the pituitary gland and the secretion of this hormone causes the enlargement of tissues and muscles. This hormone is found in higher levels during childhood and gradually decreases with the person's age. This allows the person to develop leaner and muscular muscles. It helps in improving bone strength and density and also helps in reducing fat. Production of somatropin is stimulated by the secretion of the hormone receptor cells, which are present both in the anterior pituitary gland and the anterior suprachiasmatic nucleus. Somatropin or growth hormone, also called human growth hormone in its pure human form, is basically a peptide hormone, which stimulates cell growth, cell repair, and cell metabolism in humans and many other animals as well. It is therefore extremely important in human growth and development. Somatropin has its own receptor call...
