The secretion of human growth hormones (HGH) is regulated at the genome level by genetic and epigenetic factors (environment and diet among others). And the expression of the gene of this hormone differs from one individual to another, so the quantity produced differs between individuals, which explains why we observe individuals of different sizes in a population.

Growth hormone acts by interaction with cellular receptors, it affects carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism.

A key component of growth is the growth hormone releasing factor or the growth regulating factor (GH-RF or GRF). This chemical messenger is produced in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus. GH-RF allows the pituitary gland (the "master gland" involved in the growth process) to secrete growth hormone, the main hormone responsible for a person's growth.

GH is not only involved in growth phenomena, it also plays a role in the fine regulation of reproductive phenomena in both male and female mammals.

Human growth hormone (HGH) is the polypeptide hormone released from the anterior pituitary. This hormone is also known as somatotropin that plays an important role in human development.

The human growth hormone regulates the cell growth, development, cell reproduction and cell regeneration. The excess release of growth hormone causes gigantism and its deficient release causes dwarfism in the individual. The irregulation of growth hormone disturb the cellular metabolism of the body. This irregulation of the hormone can be maintained by giving artificial HGH hormone. The deficiency of HGH hormone can be treated by the artificial introduction of HGH.

Imagine a self-reactive t cell that has not undergone clonal deletion in the thymus (that is to say, it has escaped central tolerance). if it encounters self antigen in the absence of an infection or inflammation, what will happen to this self-reactive t cell? (select two answers) (a) the t cell undergoes clonal expansion. (b) the t cell gains effector functions. (c) the t cell undergoes apoptosis. (d) the t cell becomes activated. (e) the t cell becomes anergic.
