Human growth hormone molecule F006 / 9355
Human growth hormone (hGH), molecular model. hGH is produced in the anterior pituitary gland of the brain. It binds to specific receptors on cells in the body to stimulate growth, especially in childhood. It is also involved in strengthening bone, increasing muscle mass, reducing glucose uptake by the liver and promoting the breakdown of body fat

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Human Growth Hormone (hGH), a vital protein molecule responsible for stimulating growth and development in humans. Produced in the anterior pituitary gland of the brain, hGH binds to specific receptors on cells throughout the body, particularly during childhood, to promote growth. The white background beautifully highlights this detailed illustration, which serves as a valuable tool for researchers and medical professionals studying endocrinology and biochemistry. The model depicts hGH's alpha helix and beta sheet structures, showcasing its tertiary composition. Beyond its role in growth regulation, hGH also plays a crucial part in strengthening bones, increasing muscle mass, regulating glucose uptake by the liver, and facilitating the breakdown of body fat. This multifaceted hormone is an essential component of our overall health. LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY has expertly captured this molecular marvel with their stunning artwork. Its cutout design allows viewers to focus solely on understanding hGH's complex structure without any distractions. Whether used for educational purposes or scientific research within proteomics or medicine fields, this print offers an invaluable visual aid that deepens our comprehension of human biology at a microscopic level.
