Receptor for pituitary gland growth hormone (GH1) involved in regulating postnatal body growth (PubMed:1549776, PubMed:2825030, PubMed:8943276). On ligand binding, couples to the JAK2/STAT5 pathway (PubMed:1549776, PubMed:15690087, PubMed:2825030, PubMed:8943276). Growth hormone-binding protein. The soluble form (GHBP) acts as a reservoir of growth hormone in plasma and may be a modulator/inhibitor of GH signaling. Isoform 2. Up-regulates the production of the soluble Growth hormone-binding protein form (GHBP) and acts as a negative inhibitor of growth hormone signaling.

The Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) also known as somatotropin receptor is a vital protein that mediates the effects of growth hormone (GH). GHR is a transmembrane receptor with a mass of approximately 70 kDa and is expressed in many tissues including liver muscle and adipose tissue. It plays an important role in growth regulation by binding to growth hormone which triggers signal transduction pathways involved in cellular proliferation and growth.
The growth hormone receptor facilitates the hormone's ability to promote growth and cell differentiation. The receptor when activated stimulates the JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathway a part of a larger GHR complex. This complex leads to gene transcription that stimulates growth and metabolism. The activation of GHR has significant effects on the cellular functions related to protein synthesis lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism.
The growth hormone receptor is an important component of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and the mTOR signaling pathway. In these pathways GHR interacts with other proteins such as Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5). These interactions play a critical role in translating the binding of growth hormone into cellular responses that lead to growth and metabolic regulation.
Disruptions or mutations in the growth hormone receptor can lead to conditions such as Laron syndrome and growth hormone insensitivity. These conditions often display symptoms of dwarfism and metabolic aberrations due to impaired signaling. GHR malfunction relates closely to growth hormone (GH) and anti-growth hormone treatments like somatropin used for managing growth deficiencies. The connection of GHR with related pathways and proteins like the IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) underlines its role in metabolic diseases.
