The endocrinology of aging.

Physiologic systems have substantial reserves in younger individuals. The process of aging and intercurrent pathologic processes gradually eliminate these reserves. Changes in endocrine systems, including menopause in women, androgen deficiency in men, loss of skeletal mass, decrease in growth hormone serum concentrations, and increased incidence of type 2 diabetes are all more common or certai...

Endocrinology of the aging male.

The endocrinology of the aging male is complex, with multiple hormones along the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular (HPT) axis interacting with one another in feedback. As men age, there is a small and progressive (not precipitous, as in women) decline in several sex hormones, in particular testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone, and related increases in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulatin...

Comparative Endocrinology of Aging and Longevity Regulation

Hormones regulate growth, development, metabolism, and other complex processes in multicellular animals. For many years it has been suggested that hormones may also influence the rate of the aging process. Aging is a multifactorial process that causes biological systems to break down and cease to function in adult organisms as time passes, eventually leading to death. The exact underlying cause...

Molecular endocrinology and physiology of the aging central nervous system.

Aging is associated with a progressive decline in physical and cognitive functions. The impact of age-dependent endocrine changes regulated by the central nervous system on the dynamics of neuronal behavior, neurodegeneration, cognition, biological rhythms, sexual behavior, and metabolism are reviewed. We also briefly review how functional deficits associated with increases in glucocorticoids a...

Endocrinology of Aging From a Muscle Function Point of View: Results From the Toledo Study for Healthy Aging.

INTRODUCTION Aging is a process that involves a reduction in muscle strength and anabolic hormone concentrations, which impacts significantly on health. AIM To study the hormone/total strength (H/TS) ratio as a proxy of anabolic insensitivity status in elders, and its relationship with disability, hospitalization, and mortality risk. DESIGN A total of 1462 persons aged ≥65 years from the To...
