Neuroendocrinology: Understanding the complex interactions between the brain and hormonal system
Author(s): Johannes Sapolsky*
Neuroendocrinology is a rapidly growing field that investigates
the interactions between the nervous and endocrine systems. The
hypothalamus, located at the base of the brain, plays a key role in
regulating the activity of various endocrine glands throughout the
body. The study of neuroendocrinology is critical for understanding
the mechanisms of communication and regulation between the brain
and hormonal system, and has important implications for various
disorders such as diabetes, obesity, depression, and infertility. In this
mini-review, we provide an overview of the fundamental concepts
and current research trends in neuroendocrinology, highlighting its
importance in our understanding of behavior, physiology, and health... View More»
