Human Growth Hormone or HGH is a naturally occurring hormone found in the bodies of animals and humans. In addition HGH, also known as somatotropin, is a 191 amino acid, single-chain polypeptide that, when found in the body, is made, stored and released from the cells of the anterior pituitary gland. It has many different functions in the body and its specific actions are not all clearly understood. The use of HGH fragment allows researchers to zero in on a specific known function of HGH and study that aspect of this complex hormone.
Simplifying Studies
This is a real benefit in research since using just a piece of the amino acid sequence from HGH triggers specific responses in the cells in a study without also triggering or causing changes that are not part of the specific study. The HGH fragment is created by producing an analog of just that desired aspect of the growth hormone-releasing factor that is known to be responsible or is being tested as a possible contributor to specific changes in the cells.
HGH Fragment 177-191
For example, HGH fragment 177-191 has been studied in its ability to decrease the levels of specific types of fat in the bodies of lab animals. In tests rats that were provided with a dosage of HGH fragment 177-191 lost visceral fat but showed no change their overall blood glucose level. This is important as HGH can increase blood glucose levels and the concentration of free fatty acids in the body, which in turn increases proteins.
HGH fragment has the ability to avoid the complication of increased blood glucose, free fatty acids and proteins. It also avoids the complication of combinations of results when HGH is combined with other naturally occurring hormones in laboratory tests both in vitro and in live animal tests.
As science moves to higher and higher levels of ability to trace and discover the specific aspects of Human Growth Hormone the opportunity to create other HGH fragments to target specific cellular functions is a very real possibility. Research into determining the functions of specific aspects of HGH continues to be a major focus in many long term research studies.
