Preferred Label : receptors, somatotropin;
MeSH definition : Cell surface proteins that bind GROWTH HORMONE with high affinity and trigger intracellular
changes influencing the behavior of cells. Activation of growth hormone receptors
regulates amino acid transport through cell membranes, RNA translation to protein,
DNA transcription, and protein and amino acid catabolism in many cell types. Many
of these effects are mediated indirectly through stimulation of the release of somatomedins.;
MeSH synonym : receptor, growth hormone; somatotropin receptor; growth hormone receptors; growth hormone receptor; hormone receptors, growth; somatotropin receptors; hormone receptor, growth; receptors, growth hormone;
MeSH hyponym : receptors, somatomammotropin; Somatomammotropin Receptors; Somatomammotropin Receptor;
MeSH annotation : DF: RECEPT SOMATOTROPIN;
