The endocrine system and associated disorders.
British Journal of Nursing, 2022The endocrine system and the hormones it produces control a range of processes in the body, as well as helping to maintain homeostasis. When this complex system is disrupted, including by changes associated with ageing, disease may result.

The endocrine system is composed of a group of ductless glands which synthesise, may store, and can release into the blood stream those agents called hormones. The synthesis of hormones can be stimulated or inhibited by other substances generally called releasing or inhibiting factors.

The endocrine system consists of a set of glands that, through the release of hormones and in synergy with the nervous and immune systems, regulate the various organs and apparatuses, contributing to maintaining homeostasis. The communication among the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems includes complex regulatory circuits operating at different ...

Telomerase and the endocrine system
Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 2011Telomeres are nucleoprotein complexes located at the ends of chromosomes that have a critical role in the maintenance of chromosomal integrity. This involvement is based on complex secondary and tertiary structures that rely on DNA-DNA, DNA-protein and protein-protein interactions.

In the developing fetus, the endocrine system progressively establishes feedback and regulatory mechanisms similar to those of the adult. However, the fetal system also has to accommodate additional endocrine tissues: the placenta, the steroidogenic zone (fetal zone, FZ) of the adrenal cortex, as well as a contribution from the central nervous system ...

To understand the pathological lesions found in disorders of the endocrine system of the fetus and neonate it is necessary to have a knowledge of the interrelationships which exist within the developing endocrine system and its target tissues. Although the feedback and regulatory mechanisms are similar to those of the adult, the fetal endocrine system ...
