Anabolic steroid therapies for growth disorders
Abstract
Until recently, human growth hormone was the only endocrine therapy available for promotion of growth and development. Dramatic progress in understanding the secretory and regulatory pathways pertinent to the anabolic steroids has led to multiple pharmacologic approaches. Growth hormone dynamics and its impact on therapy are discussed.
