Non-pituitary growth hormone damages colon epithelial cells and promotes DNA damage accumulation
Accumulation of DNA damage and insufficient DNA repair causes mutation and age-related pathologies. A study showed that aging induces non-pituitary growth hormone (npGH) in organoids of human colon epithelium and fibroblasts. Results are increased p16, senescence, and telomere shortening, that are consistent with age-associated changes. In vivo experiment in mice confirmed the findings. It means that npGH enhances age-associated colon DNA damage accumulation.
