Descriere
In the history of their knowledge, hormones have gone from the status of mysterious angels and demons of our body, to one of the most debated and explored medical specialties. It is proven that hormones control (almost) everything: growth, metabolism, behavior, sex and reproduction, lactation, sleep-wake cycles, mood swings, stress, pain, immune system, struggle and abandonment…
What makes them so remarkable – compared to all other biomolecules – is the seemingly magical way they work: they "excite" the receptors of some target cells by pressing the "switches" that trigger them. or stops biochemical processes.
The study of hormones is fascinating because it integrates biochemistry, anatomy, physiology and pathology… The latest discoveries in cellular and molecular biology, immunology and genetics, currently explain the mechanisms of hormone secretion and action, and the mechanisms of endocrine diseases, so they have an applicability and a major impact in developing vital treatments.
