The prevalence of polymorphism of exon 3 expression of the growth hormone receptor gene in the general population and its influence on quality of life, body composition and response to growth hormone replacement in growth hormone deficient adults

2013-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Growth hormone (GH) deficiency developing in adult life results in impaired quality of life (QoL) and altered body composition (Be). As in children, it is now standard practice to treat adult growth hormone deficiency (GHD) with recombinant human GH (rhGH). Response to treatment with rhGH remains variable in patients with GHD. In health, the growth hormone receptor (GHR) is the principal regulator of growth hormon...
