Abstract
Differently to that occurring with autocrine GH, exogenous GH administration does not seem to be related to oncogenesis. According to its effects, there are multiple potential clinical applications of GH: acute treatment of brain injury, due to its antiapoptotic effect; central or peripheral neural regeneration; acute treatment of perinatal anoxia, prevention cerebral palsy; revascularisation of ischemic areas; decrease of the time of bone consolidation after a bone fracture; and torpid ulcer healing.
