Endocrine Cell Function and Dysfunction
نویسنده
چکیده
The endocrine system refers to the cells and tissue that release hormones into the blood. Unlike synaptic chemical communication, which is localized to the target cell, endocrine communication is global. The hormones act on other endocrine glands such as the adrenal gland, ovaries, testes, and others, as well as on the heart, kidneys, muscle, and the brain. Mathematical modeling has been used to understand network interactions mediated by the endocrine system, as well as the effects of hormones on single cells.
