Vesiculogenesis in Children With GH Deficiency (VESCIGHTP)
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the size and derivational profile of the extracellular vescicles (EV) generated in children with GH deficiency, undergoing hormone replacement therapy with rhGH. Secondary objectives is to correlate vesiculogenesis with auxometric and biochemical parameters used in clinical-endocrine practice in the evaluation of short stature.
The results of the study will provide useful information to more rationally set up the clinical and biochemical follow-up of hormone replacement therapy with rhGH, as well as to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the multi-systemic action of GH, the most important anabolic hormone of the human organism.
