DEFINITION

Classification: 930/120

Growth hormone, growth factor other than T-Cell or B-Cell growth factor, and growth hormone releasing factor; related peptides:

Subject matter under cross-reference art collection 10 containing peptides or proteins related to growth hormone, growth factor, or growth hormone-releasing factor and variations thereof, synthetic and natural.

(1) Note. Since urogastrone is thought to be identical to epidermal growth factor, this art collection is appropriate for urogastrone amino acid sequences.

(2) Note. Physiological properties: Growth hormone or factor: promote growth of tissues. GH is also involved in regulation of other phases of protein metabolism as well as fat, carbohydrate, and mineral metabolism. GH-RF: helps mediate the neuro-regulation of GH secretion.

(3) Note. Synonyms. Growth hormone: Somatotropin, Adenohypophyseal growth hormone, GH, hypophyseal growth hormone, anterior pituitary growth hormone, phyone, pituitary growth hormone, somatotropic hormone, STH, Antuitrin-Growth,

Phyol, and Somacton. Growth hormone-releasing factor: GH-RF, GH-RH, GRF, and growth hormone-releasing hormone.
