is secreted by the anterior pituitary and binds to a plasma protein.
Answer is secreted by anterior pituitary and binds to plasma protein.
Growth hormone is secreted by somatotrops which are the acidophillic cells of anterior pituitary. GH acts on bones, growth and protein through somatomedin. It is a polypeptide through which GH act.
GH is responsible for the differentiation and development of bone cells and growth of skeleton (not limiting the growth as given in option 1)
GH doesn't bind to MHC 2 proteins, but instead it binds to growth hormone secretagogue receptor. It is a transmembrane receptor belonging to cytokine receptor family.
