Cortisol secretion is indirectly controlled by the central nervous system. The hypothalamus releases the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) to the long pituitary portal veins. CRH binds to its membrane receptors in the anterior pituitary stimulating the release of ACTH into the blood [117]. ACTH ...
system, this research supports medical professionals in recognizing the consistent patterns of coronavirus entry into the nervous system. In the meantime, this discovery furnishes humanity with a means to anticipate and avert the damage to the human nervous system prompted by novel coronavirus strains,...
The international scientific community considers the MD to be a healthy and balanced eating pattern that can reduce the incidence of non-communicable diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular diseases, and in improving the immune system [34]. Effectively, the anti-inflammatory ...
as well as necrosis. Ferroptosis occurs due to its iron-dependent catalysis of lipid peroxidation, leading to the accumulation of lipid peroxides (lipid ROS) in cell membranes and the subsequent cell demise [8,9]. System xc−-
Endocrine disruptors are exogenous substances that act like hormones in the endocrine system and disrupt the physiologic function of endogenous hormones. They are sometimes also referred to as hormonally active agents or endocrine disrupting chemicals/compounds (EDC). Studies have linked endocrine ...

There are three main hypotheses that could explain the increased risk of frac- ture associated with central analgesics, such as opioids: 1) the increased risk of falls caused by central nervous system effects, including sedation and dizziness; 2) reduced bone mass density caused by the direct ...
While the adult system is able to compensate to external environmental 'insults', such exposures may leave a lasting effect on the systems of the developing fetus (Mansfield 2017; Vogel 2008). The effects on the developing fetus may manifest only years later, and again making it difficult to ...
Notes 1. Imposex is defined as the imposition of male reproductive characteristics, for example, penis development, on female individuals. 2. For example, female testosterone levels might be increased by aromatase inhibition. See Fernandes et al. [369] for a comprehensive review on molluskan ...
