What's The Definition Of The Medical Condition Somatotropin Receptor?

Cell surface proteins that bind somatotropin with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells.

Many of these effects are mediated indirectly through stimulation of the release of somatomedins.
