F Salomon,P H Sönksen,

Some historical background on the physiological effects of pituitary gland extract and later of purified hGH in experimental animals is given, and the regulatory role of hGH in the human adult is reviewed. The effects of hGH on carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism are complex and closely linked to the action of other hormones, particularly insulin.
