It presents essential as well as in-depth information of value to both medical students and specialists in Endocrinology, Gynecology, Pediatrics, and Internal Medicine. Although it is well established that the endocrine system regulates essential functions involved in growth, reproduction, and homeostasis, it is increasingly being recognized that this complex regulatory system comprises not only hormones secreted by the classic endocrine glands but also hormones and regulatory factors produced by many organs, and involves extensive crosstalk with the neural and immune system. At the same time, our knowledge of the molecular basis of hormone action has greatly improved. Understanding this complexity of endocrine physiology is crucial to prevent endocrine disorders, to improve the sensitivity of our diagnostic tools, and to provide the rationale for pharmacological, immunological, or genetic interventions. It is such understanding that this book is designed to foster. 000825884 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 1, 2018). 000825884 650_0 $$aEndocrinology. 000825884 7001_ $$aBelfiore, Antonino,$$eeditor. 000825884 7001_ $$aLeRoith, Derek,$$d1945-$$eeditor. 000825884 830_0 $$aEndocrinology (Springer (Firm)) 000825884 852__ $$bebk 000825884 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-44675-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000825884 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:825884$$pGLOBAL_SET 000825884 980__ $$aEBOOK 000825884 980__ $$aBIB 000825884 982__ $$aEbook 000825884 983__ $$aOnline 000825884 994__ $$a92$$bISE
