Abstract
The concentration of acetic acid-soluble collagen in the skin of hamsters was used as a measure of the effect of growth hormone on collagen metabolism. The intraperitoneal administration of growth hormone increased the concentration of the acetic acid-soluble collagen in the skin of old hamsters.Keywords
