Somatropin plays an important role in physiological environments such as: increasing muscle mass, reducing fat mass, providing the energy necessary for tissue growth, maintaining the right level of glucose and lipids and the development of the individual's body <ref name="ncbi">PMID:22291494</ref>. It acts directly on a cell surface or indirectly. In the second case, somatotropin stimulates tissues such as the liver, which in turn allows the synthesis and secretion of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin-like_growth_factor_1 IGF-1], thus enabling the development of cell growth, tissue, bone and thus the linear growth of the individual.<ref name="britannica"> Utiger, R.

The GH regulates direct or indirect anabolic and growth promoting actions. Through direct regulation GH increases the amino acid uptake, the RNA- ,protein- and cartilage-synthesis and muscle growth. These regulations are often mediated by IFG. [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ygcen.2017.07.028 ] However, the GH is also able to regulate catabolic actions. Thus it stimulates the breakdown of lipids ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipolysis lipolysis] as is evident by increased fatty acids. A lack of GH is therefore associated with an increased lipid deposit. [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ygcen.2017.07.028 ]
