Age-Related Hyposomatotropism Attenuation

Meaning

Age-Related Hyposomatotropism Attenuation describes the observed mitigation or lessening of the decline in endogenous growth hormone secretion associated with advancing age. This decline, termed somatopause, affects body composition, energy metabolism, and tissue repair capacity. Attenuation implies successful clinical or lifestyle interventions designed to restore GH secretion toward more youthful profiles. We seek to normalize the anabolic signaling pathways often compromised in older adults. Achieving this balance supports lean mass maintenance and metabolic efficiency.
