Biochemical and Physiological Effects of Galanin in Health and Disease
Galanin is a biologically active neuropeptide hormone that mediates its effects through three galanin receptors. Galanin signaling induces changes in glucose homeostasis amongst others and plays a dynamic role in the physiological health of many organ systems.

Adrenogenital syndrome: molecular mechanisms of development
On the long multistage pathway of biosynthesis of steroid hormones from cholesterol to cortisol, testosterone and estradiol, due to mutations in genes, there is the deficiency of steroidogenesis enzymes in the adrenal glands: cholesterol desmolase, 3β ...
