The effect of human growth hormone (HGH) and human placental lactogen (HPL) on glucose consumption by erythrocytes and leucocytes in vitro was investigated. Glucose consumption was measured by determining glucose utilization during 3 h incubation at 37 °C, using the glucose oxidase method.HGH and HPL showed no effect on glucose consumption by erythrocytes, and HPL showed no effect on glucose consumption by leucocytes in vitro. Our results do not confirm previous reports of an inhibitory effect of HGH on glucose consumption by erythrocytes in vitro.

Plasma somatomedin activity enhanced the incorporation of [3H]thymidine into chondrocytes isolated from human foetal cartilage during weeks 13–21 of gestation. Human growth hormone (0·1–20 μu./ml), human placental lactogen (0·1–5 μg/ml) and insulin (0·25– 10 μu./ml) had no direct effects on the synthesis of DNA in these chondrocytes, although insulin at concentrations of 2·5–100 mu./ml increased [3H]thymidine incorporation by up to 400%.
