The phylogeny of the endocrine system
Experientia, 1986Phylogeny, which is a representation of the evolutionary history of taxa, requires critical interpretation of biological diversity and of the relationship of this with the unity of organisation which underlies living systems. Some degree of personal judgement may be involved in particular cases, and so, because of this subjective element, phylogenetic ...

Publisher Summary This chapter addresses the thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal glands and the paraganglia; the pineal and pituitary glands. Endocrine organs are richly vascularized ductless organs that produce hormones. The epithelial cells of the organ secrete their hormone product directly into the bloodstream where, upon binding with specific ...

Iodoacetic Acid Disrupting the Thyroid Endocrine System in Vitro and in Vivo.
Environmental Science and Technology, 2018Exposure to drinking water disinfection byproducts (DBPs) is potentially associated with adverse developmental effects. Iodoacetic acid (IAA), an unregulated DBP, has been shown to be cytotoxic, mutagenic, genotoxic, and tumorigenic.

Immunity and the Endocrine System
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1994In conclusion, interaction between the immune and endocrine systems is highly complex. Generally, abnormalities of T suppressor cells, a result of HLA antigen genetic abnormalities, result in autoimmunity that causes endocrine gland destruction and hormone deficiency, as seen in lymphocytic thyroiditis of dogs, type I DM, hypoparathyroidism ...

Publisher Summary The endocrine system is comprised of a network of hormone-producing glands that synthesize and release carefully measured doses of these hormones, which in some instances are in the parts-per-trillion range. A large number of individual chemicals are demonstrated to be endocrine disruptors.

Streptomycin and endocrine system
Experientia, 1956Auf Grund klinischer Erfahrungen, nach welchen anlasslich einer Streptomycintherapie verschiedene endokrine Storungen beobachtet werden konnten, wurden zur Klarung derselben Tierexperimente durchgefuhrt. Die Versuchsergebnisse deuten auf eine funktionelle Storung der Nebennierenrindenenzyme hin, hervorgerufen durch die Einwirkung des Antibiotikums ...

Thyroid history and examination is one of the very important topics for the OSCE. It is frequently repeated. It is very important to practice focused history and thyroid examination well before the actual examination. When I used to practice with my colleagues for OSCE, I found it very difficult to complete both the history and examination of the ...

Classically, endocrinology has consisted of the study of hormone-secreting organs and the evaluation of hormonal activity. Hormones were considered chemical substances that, when secreted into the circulation, would affect the metabolic pathways of cells with appropriate receptors. In recent years it has been appreciated that many hormones can also act
