What is Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Market?
Human growth hormone is a peptide pituitary hormone of about 190 amino acids that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and regeneration. This hormone is synthesized and secreted by cells called somatotrophs in the anterior pituitary and also regulates body composition, fluids, and sugar and fat metabolism. Human growth hormone can be used to treat growth disorders and growth hormone deficiency. Recombinant human growth hormones are made in a laboratory using recombinant technology. These hormones work by stimulating growth in the body and used to treat growth hormone deficiency and to aid in weight gain. In the past years, recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) primarily used for stimulating the growth of growth-retarded GH deficient (GHD) children. Recently it is being used for other conditions associated with short stature, including Turner syndrome and end-stage renal disease.
The market study is being classified, by Application (Growth Hormone (GH) Deficiency, Adult GH Deficiency, Pediatric GH Deficiency, Turner Syndrome, Idiopathic Short Stature, Prader-Willi Syndrome, Small for Gestational Age and Other) and major geographies with country level break-up.
