Document Summary
Growth depends on adequate diet --> energy, calcium, protein, etc. , also. Stress (cortisol) o depends on genetics o o. Hormones play a role as wel as growth factors. 11:36 pm: growth, a complex process, depends on: Growth hormone-releasing hormone (ghrh) stimulates growth hormone (gh) o release o o o o o which they act on bones and soft issue. Gh cells in anterior pituitary release gh in pulses. Acts on receptors in bone and soft tissues. Gh releases vary throughout the day, huge amounts during sleep. Acts on the liver, to stimulate the release igf-1 (insulin like growth factor) in. 3. o o o o o o: growth hormone (gh) Somatostatin also regulates gh it inhibits it in the hypothalamus. Gh produced in anterior pituitary , released into circulation where they are bound o o to plasma binding proteins, extending the half life of the gh to reach more distant targets o in the cell.
