WHAT DOES SOMATOMEDIN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Somatomedin

Somatomedins are a group of hormones that promote cell growth and division in response to stimulation by growth hormone, which is also called somatotropin. They have similar biological effects to somatotropin. In addition to their actions that stimulate growth, somatomedins also stimulate production of somatostatin, which suppresses growth hormone release. Thus, levels of somatomedins are controlled via negative feedback through the intermediates of somatostatin and growth hormone. Somatomedins are produced in many tissues and have autocrine and paracrine actions in addition to their endocrine action. The liver is thought to be the predominant source of circulating somatomedins. Three forms include: ▪ somatomedin A, which is another name for insulin-like growth factor 2 ▪ somatomedin B, which is derived from vitronectin ▪ somatomedin C, which is another name for insulin-like growth factor 1...
