PRODUCT NAME: |
ST AIA-PACK HGH |
INTENDED USE: |
ST AIA-PACK HGH is designed for IN-VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE for the quantitative measurement of human growth Hormone (hGH) in human serum or heparinized plasma on Tosoh AIA immunoassay analyzers. |
SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION OF TEST: |
Human growth hormone (hGH) is a straight chain polypeptide that is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland and is present in the blood as a monomer. This hormone is essential for growth and development (bone growth, protein synthesis and cellular proliferation) and its secretion is regulated by somatostatin and hGH releasing hormone (GHRH). In acromegaly or pituitary gigantism, the level of hGH is high and most cases are caused by excessive hGH secretion due to hGH-producing adenoma. On the other hand, the level of hGH is generally low in hypopituitarism. |
