Anterior-pituitary hormones {growth hormone}| (GH) can increase bone, increase body growth, raise metabolism rate, and make glucose from glycogen. Growth hormones enter cells directly and bind to cytoplasm receptors, which send molecules to cell nucleus to bind to DNA sites and express or repress genes. Growth hormone helps generate and maintain nerve-pathway connections.
