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 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose glucose] and [https://www.britannica.com/science/lipid 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.
