Overview
In the mid-1940s, Li and Evans were the first to purify bovine GH. In 1981, Genentech developed the first recombinant human GH. In 1981, Genentech developed the first recombinant human GH for the therapy of severe childhood GHD. By 1985, GH extracted from human pituitary glands were used to treat growth hormone deficiency.
Historical Perspective
- In the mid-1940s, Li and Evans were the first to purify bovine GH at the University of California.[1]
- In 1956, Li and Papkoff were the first to isolate growth hormone from the human pituitary gland at California University.
- By 1985, GH extracted from human pituitary glands were used to treat growth hormone deficiency.[2]
- In 1985, treatment with GH extracts has been stopped completely due to reports of four young adults in the United States with Creuzfeldt Jacob Disease who had been treated with GH.[3]
- In 1981, Genentech developed the first recombinant human GH for the therapy of severe childhood GHD. [4]
- List of indications for GH use in non-GH-deficient children and adults have increased with time.[5]
