Current Opinion in Immunology, 2002
The immune system can attack almost any given organ in a very specific and directed fashion. The endocrine system appears to be particularly vulnerable to this kind of insult. Which endocrine organs are most susceptible and why? Genetic studies and animal models have revealed some commonalities for these diseases.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2008
The frequency of documented endocrine diseases in rodents and other small mammals varies considerably among the species maintained as pets, biomedical research animals, or display animals in zoos. The clinical diagnosis of endocrine diseases almost never occurs in free-ranging animals in their native habitat.

Diagnosis of endocrine disease: Biochemical diagnosis of phaeochromocytoma and paraganglioma.
European Journal of Endocrinology, 2014Adrenal phaechromocytomas and extra-adrenal sympathetic paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumours, characterised by production of the catecholamines: noradrenaline, adrenaline and dopamine.

Endocrine Changes in Alzheimer’s Disease
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1988In conclusion, at present, no consistent endocrine abnormalities can be detected in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease. However, assessment of neuroendocrine function might help identify subpopulations of patients with particular neurotransmission abnormalities who are likely to benefit from a specific pharmacologic strategy.

Endocrine Aspects of Coeliac Disease
Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2003Coeliac disease (CD) is a permanent intolerance to gluten that results in damage of the small intestinal mucosa, and it is one of the common causes of chronic malabsorption in children. It is well known that patients with CD are at great risk of malignant complications, but in patients with CD many other disorders have been recognized.
