Abuse of growth hormone by athletes

Anne E Nelson; Ken Ky Ho

Growth hormone abuse is prevalent in sport because of the perceived benefits on lean muscle mass, strength, and performance. As discussed in this Viewpoint, however, inappropriate use of growth hormone might be associated with adverse effects, such as hypertension and cardiomyopathy, particularly when athletes concurrently abuse anabolic androgen steroids.

Objectiveu2002 Measurement of biochemical markers of the IGF‐system and of collagen turnover is a potential approach to detect GH abuse in sport. These markers are increased in patients on dialysis treated with recombinant human erythropoietin (r‐HuEPO), mimicking the effects of GH. The aim was to determine whether r‐HuEPO induces similar effects on the IGF‐system and collagen turnover in healthy athletes.
