Clinically Relevant Anatomy[edit | edit source]
Endocrine and metabolic diseases span a vast range of conditions. The endocrine system works via chemical messages (hormones) secreted from glands directly into the circulatory system to regulate the function of distant target organ. A negative feedback loop works to maintain the release of these hormones and so maintain homeostasis ie the state of steady conditions vital for life.[1]
The endocrine system involves many organ systems and hormones, many of which are still being investigated.[3]
