A hormone that is crucial for normal growth in height is the Growth Hormone (HGH). It is made by the pituitary gland located in the middle of the head at the base of the brain.

Growth hormone affects glucose and fat metabolism, the production of protein to sustain new cell development and, most importantly, it stimulates bone growth at the growth plates located at the ends of the bones. Children with growth hormone deficiency usually have a dramatic slowing of growth. They may have younger looking faces than their actual age, but have normal body proportions. Diagnosis is made with blood tests and treatment is by regular injections of human growth hormone or one of its analogues. Treatment should continue until the bone growth plates fuse indicating that growth is completed. Unlike many other hormones, replacement growth hormone is very expensive.

Since human growth hormone was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2003 to treat unusually short but otherwise medically normal children, a great deal of research has gone into trying to prove why a couple of extra inches are crucial for an undersize kid.

As endocrinologist Alan Rogol put it, “Short stature became a disease when unlimited amounts of growth hormone became available.” Last week, a story in the New York Post added some class frisson to the issue, reporting that “at least” six sophomores at the exclusive Dalton School were taking HGH to augment their height. The family of 16-year-old (and five-foot-seven) Jeffrey Stern was reportedly suing the family’s insurance provider for not paying for continuing treatment—nearly $30,000 a year—in order for Jeffrey to reach, in the words of his mother, Margot, “the height that’s owed to him.” The Post argued that HGH treatments “are being used increasingly by wealthy parents looking to give their children a leg up.”

 In 1931, chemists discovered that the pituitary gland contains a hormone, HGH, that controls growth.

Overactivity of the pituitary, which sits at the base of the brain, results in gigantism. Underactivity results in dwarfism. The discovery in 1931 eventually led to physicians treating children suffering from a deficiency of the hormone by injections of HGH obtained from the pituitaries of cadavers. More recently, scientists have discovered a way to produce genetically engineered HGH in bacteria.

Lately, it has become common that a drug designed for one purpose gets a second life because of desirable side effects that have little or nothing to do with the original intent. Sometimes, the drug even gets a third life, like human growth hormone (HGH).When the other incarnations of the drugs have little or no apparent medical value, and are instead used for what amounts to pure vanity, should we be using biotech research to put them on the market? The answers are as varied as the products.

For instance, human growth hormone originally was intended for children with growth disorders. Then “older people seeking the fountain of youth and athletes wanting a boost started finding illegal suppliers of HGH for muscle growth and overall toning,” reported USA Today. HGH, a substance secreted by the pituitary gland, promotes growth during childhood and adolescence. The hormone acts on the liver and other tissues to stimulate production of insulin-like growth factor I, which is responsible for the growth-promoting effects of growth hormone and also reflects the amount produced.

HGH: Expensive!

August 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment

What about human growth hormone (HGH), which is secreted by the pituitary gland? HGH aids in growth during childhood, and it’s estimated that 30,000 people in North America are now taking HGH at a cost of $20,000 a year!

In studies done at Stanford University, HGH (human growth hormone) increased muscle by about four pounds. But 20 per cent of those taking it suffered from swollen, painful bones and joints, 19 per cent from carpal tunnel syndrome and six per cent developed enlarged breasts, another good example that you never get something for nothing.

Tens of thousands of boys (and some girls) in this country receive injections of human growth hoemone (HGH), the pituitary secretion pivotal to the complex hormonal cascade that mediates height.

The story of growth hormone contains many of the most painful object lessons of modern health care. First it was painstakingly harvested from cadavers, and the tiny supply was reserved for children with pituitary failure. But as we know now, human tissues make perilous drugs, and the recipients of cadaver hormone grew up under the hanging sword of the neurological condition Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, transmitted by some of those shots.

Then, in 1985, new technology flooded the marketplace with synthetic human growth hormone (HGH), safe from infectious contaminants and made in quantities enough to treat not just the truly pituitary-deficient, but all small-comers.

BANGALORE, June 29 (Reuters) - Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd  said U.S. health regulators approved its partner Antares Pharma Inc’s needle-free injector device to administer the Israeli company’s human growth hormone.

 

                           “This is an important validation of the Teva partnership, which is  the primary driver of our valuation and excitement about Antares stock,” Ladenburg Thalmann analyst Matthew Kaplan said by phone.

Shares of Antares rose as much as 58 percent to a new year high of $1.14, before paring some gains to trade up at $1.02 in morning trade Monday on the American Stock Exchange.

Teva, the world’s largest generic drug maker, and Antares filed a supplemental new drug application last year to use the needle-free device to administer Tev-Tropin, a human growth hormone.

Human growth hormone is a protein, given by injection, that is commonly used to treat children with growth hormone deficiency.

ZURICH, June 25 (Reuters) - Japanese regulators approved a human growth hormone from Novartis AG, the first green light in Japan for a biosimilar or generic version of a biotech drug, the Swiss drugmaker said on Thursday

Biosimilars are viewed as a promising new market, given the pent-up demand for cheaper versions of extremely expensive biotech drugs, some of which are coming to the end of their patent life.

Somatropin, made by Novartis’ generics unit Sandoz, is for treatment of growth hormone deficiency in children and growth disturbance associated with Turner’s syndrome or chronic renal insufficiency, the group said.

Even though it is touted as a “fountain of youth” drug, HGH has the potential for side effects. Read about the benefits of an all natural HGH product that has NO side effects, and is 100% legal. Click here!

Many of the tallest teens in the world tower over Peter Crouch, the 6ft 7in England footballer, and have to have custom-made beds, clothes and houses to accommodate their frames.

The group will appear in a documentary examining the explanations for their size and how they cope with the attention it attracts. Many have tumors on their pituitary gland which makes them  produce too much growth hormone (HGH).

Safety is key. Take a look at a safe, all natural HGH product used by tens of thousands of people.

MIDDLE-AGED men are increasingly injecting human growth hormones to fight off old age, spending up to $15,000 a year.

Strict government guidelines state human growth hormone (HGH) can only be prescribed to children with growth disorders and adults with severe hormone deficiencies. But Australian anti-ageing clinics prescribe it to mostly male patients as young as 35 who want to look good and stay fit.

Users say human growth hormone (HGH) gives them more energy, but specialists warn it can have serious side effects.

Black market sales are also booming with Australian Customs reporting a four-fold increase in seizures of the prohibited import in the last year.
