In
1985, Keith Kelley, M.D., a research
immunologist at the University of Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign, showed that injections
of cells that secrete high amounts of growth
hormone could regrow the shriveled thymus
gland in old rats until it was as large and
robust as in young rats. Kelley's work was
confirmed by Israeli scientists who used
bovine growth hormone to reverse thymus
shrinkage in mice, and similar results have
been demonstrated in dogs. Immune
activities that growth hormone improves are
the manufactures of new antibodies;
increased production of T-cells and
interleukin 2; greater proliferation and
activity of lymphocytes; higher activity of
natural killer cells; stimulation of
macrophages; increased maturation of
neutrophils; and increased production of red
blood cells.
The Doctors found Hgh to be a potent
anabolic agent "Daily Administration of human growth hormone in the first week
after trauma would enhance the metabolic
status….resulting in reduced morbidity and
earlier discharge from the hospital." (May
1992, Journal of Surgery, Vol, 495-502.
