Plant-derived functional components: prevent from various disorders by regulating the endocrine glands

Disorders of the Endocrine Glands in Relation to Pregnancy.

incidence with cases often arising from cousin marriages of unaffected members, who can be given no assurance that they will not transmit the disorder. On an average one of every four children will be affected. Peroneal muscular atrophy, the cerebromacular degenerations, torsion spasm, albinism, hepatolenticular degeneration, and some myopathies may show this mode of heredity. Leber's optic atr...

Urinary 17-ketosteroids in various endocrine disorders.

HE PURPOSE OF THE PRESENT REVIEW of the literature is an examination of the contemporary data on the clinical diagnostic value of the determination of the 17-ketosteroid content in the urine in various disorders of the endocrine glands. The basis of the chemical structure of the 17-ketosteroids is the perhydrocyclopentanophenanthrene ring. The 17-ketosteroids can be looked upon as derivatives o...

Endocrine Glands and Hearing: Auditory Manifestations of Various Endocrine and Metabolic Conditions

The aetiology of hearing loss in humans is multifactorial. Besides genetic, environmental and infectious causes, several endocrine and metabolic abnormalities are associated with varying degrees of hearing impairment. The pattern of hearing loss may be conductive, sensori-neural or mixed. The neurophysiology of hearing as well as the anatomical structure of the auditory system may be influenced...

Autophagy in the endocrine glands.

Autophagy is an important cellular process involving the degradation of intracellular components. Its regulation is complex and while there are many methods available, there is currently no single effective way of detecting and monitoring autophagy. It has several cellular functions that are conserved throughout the body, as well as a variety of different physiological roles depending on the co...
