Human Growth Hormone，HGHHuman Growth Hormone，HGH

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is a peptide hormone secreted by the anterior pituitary gland of the human body. It is composed of 191 amino acids and can promote the growth of bones, internal organs and the whole body. It promotes protein synthesis, affects fat and mineral metabolism, and plays a key role in human growth and development. [1-2]
Generally speaking, growth hormone is the abbreviation of human growth hormone for injection [5] (formerly known as recombinant human growth hormone for injection [2]). It is produced through genetic recombination technology and is completely consistent with human pituitary growth hormone in terms of amino acid content, sequence and protein structure. In the field of pediatrics, the use of growth hormone for replacement therapy can significantly promote the growth of children’s height. At the same time, growth hormone also plays an important role in the fields of reproduction, burns and anti-aging. It has been widely used in clinical practice.
