Hormone Protein-Peptide

Hormones of the protein-peptide group (H.P.P.) are the general name for a group of hormones that, in their chemical composition, are proteins or peptides. These hormones play an important role in regulating various processes in the body, such as growth, development, metabolism, immune system and others.

Hormones of the protein-peptide group include hormones of the anterior pituitary gland (ACTH, TSH, FSH, LH, STH), thyroid gland (T3, T4) and parathyroid glands (PTH). All of these hormones are proteins that are produced in the corresponding glands and then released into the blood.

The hormone ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) stimulates the production of cortisol in the adrenal cortex and is involved in the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism. The hormone TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) regulates the functioning of the thyroid gland and the production of thyroxine and triiodothyronine. The hormone FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) is responsible for the growth and development of follicles in the ovaries and the production of estrogen. The hormone LH (luteinizing hormone) also stimulates the development of follicles, but in the ovary. Finally, the hormone STH (somatotropic hormone, or growth hormone) is involved in the growth and development of the body, as well as in metabolism.

All these hormones of the protein-peptide group have a very complex and diverse mechanism of action, which has not yet been fully studied. However, due to their role in regulating many processes in the body, they are important components of the hormonal system and are involved in maintaining homeostasis.

Protein-peptide group hormones (PPGs) are a class of hormones with a protein structure. They are synthesized by endocrine glands such as the anterior pituitary gland and the thyroid gland, as well as endothelial cells and other tissues.

BGG hormones regulate various physiological functions, including growth and
