Metabolic Actions? |
=increased protein production by the cells (More a.a intake More Transcription More Translation) =More Fat Burning (increased fatty acid mobilization from adipose tissues increased plasma FA level and more Utilization of FA by cells) = Conservation of carbs. (Decrease the usage of Glucose by apposing the insulin action) |
|
Clinical significance of GH on metabolism? |
1)Due to excessive FA mobilization so much A.acetic acid produced that may lead to the general KETOSIS and FATTY LIVER |
|
GH on Carbs? |
Growth hormone is also known as Diabetogebic Hormone bcoz it induces Insulin Resistance by Decreasing Glucose uptake by the cells and increasing Gluconeogenisis thus leads to increased Glu in Blood (that stimulate insulin production) Excessive GH effects are similar to that of D.M type 2 (non insulin dependant) |
