Overview
Pathophysiology
- The somatotroph cells of the anterior pituitary gland produce growth hormone.
- They are regulated by two hypothalamic hormones; GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) stimulates and somatostatin inhibits them.
- GH best-known effect is increasing body mass:
- GH increases total body protein content and is associated with an increase in amino acid incorporation into cartilage and bone.[1]
- GH stimulates lipolysis decreasing total body fat content.
- GH also increases bone mass by stimulating skeletal insulin-like growth factor-I and causing hypertrophy of osteoblasts, bone remodeling, and mineralization.[2]
- GH causes epiphyseal plate widening and cartilage growth.
- GH deficiency results in alterations in the physiology of different systems of the body, manifesting as altered lipid metabolism, increased subcutaneous visceral fat, decreased muscle mass, decreased bone density, low exercise performance, and reduced quality of life.
Genetics
POU1F1 gene mutations
- It is the most common known genetic cause of combined pituitary hormone deficiency.[3]
- It is responsible for pituitary-specific transcription of genes for GH, prolactin, thyrotropin, and the growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) receptor.[4]
- PROP1 mutations result in failure to activate POU1F1/Pit1 gene expression and probably cause pituitary hypoplasia.[5]
GH1 gene mutations
- It is GH1 is the gene encoding GH, located on chromosome 17.
- Gene deletions, frameshift mutations, and nonsense mutations of GH1 have been described as causes of familial GHD.
Syndrome of bioinactive GH
- Bioinactive GH has the main symptoms and signs of isolated GHD with normal basal GH levels and low insulin-like growth factor I concentrations.[6]
GH receptor signal transduction
- It is essential for normal signaling of the GH receptor. Mutations in the gene encoding signal transducer decrease the response of receptors to GH.[7]
IGF-I gene mutations
- Mutations in the gene encoding IGF-I cause a unique syndrome of GHD.[8]
- Patients with IGF-I gene mutations have prenatal growth failure, microcephaly, significant neurocognitive deficits, and sensorineural hearing loss.
Defective stabilization of circulating IGF-I
- Acid-labile subunit is important for the stabilization of the IGF-I.
- Mutations in the gene coding for it causes less stable and subsequently less effect.[9]
IGF-I receptor mutations
- Mutations in the gene encoding the receptor for IGF-I result in partial loss of function of the IGF-I receptor.[10]
