Download or read book Metabolic and Endocrine Physiology Third Edition written by Larry Engelking and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to give readers a “quick look” at metabolic and endocrine physiology. Emphasis is placed on instructional figures, flow diagrams and tables, while text material has been held to a minimum. In general, the endocrine system is first defined and described, and then each endocrine gland is discussed separately. Where appropriate, common endocrine disorders have also been included. This text concisely elucidates the endocrine mechanisms responsible for maintaining homeostatic control of important physiologic variables, and to assist the reader in understanding common pathophysiologic deviations from normal. Over 360 multiple-choice questions gauge the reader’s capacity to effectively understand the subject material. This new edition contains six new chapters covering: hormone disposition, measurement and secretion; bovine, equine and rodent estrus cycles; primate menstrual cycle; male reproductive system; testosterone, estrogen and progesterone; comparative aspects of endocrinology. Learning objectives have been added at the beginning of each chapter and all of the questions are new.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vitamins in Endocrine Metabolism covers the problems of nutritional diseases in the fields of endocrinology, pathology, enzymology, and vitamin research. This book is divided into 11 chapters that discuss the conditions affecting vitamin requirements. The introductory chapters deal with the intracellular localization, synthesis, molecular structure, and reaction rate of enzymes. The succeeding chapters examine the methods of analysis and mode of action of hormones; pathology of vitamin A deficiency in man and animals; description of vitamin B complex; and diseases of vitamin C deficiency. Other chapters explore the modifying effects of the diet and availability of enzymic activators, as well as the biochemical aspects of isoenzymes, pre-enzymes, coenzymes, and enzyme cofactors. A chapter highlights the characteristics of vitamin, while another chapter is devoted to the chemical structure of vitamin E and the essential fatty acids. The final chapters focus on the exogenous chemical carcinogen. The book can provide useful information to doctors, nutritionists, students, and researchers.

Download or read book A Synopsis of Endocrinology and Metabolism written by David G. Ferriman and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Synopsis of Endocrinology and Metabolism deals with advances and current thinking on endocrine research. The book describes the diseases of the hypothalamus and adenohypophysis including aetiology, methods of investigation, signs, symptoms, growth disturbances (related to height, bone age, skeletal proportions, sexual development, mental development). The authors also investigate the diseases of the neurohypophysis and of the thyroid such as diabetes insipidus, hypernatraemia (salt imbalance), hypothyroidism, myxedema coma, and malignant exophthalmos. Disorders of the adrenal glands—adrenal cortex include Cushing's disease (excess cortisol production), adrenogenital syndrome, feminizing adrenal tumors (feminization of the male), and hyperaldosteronism. Disorders of sexual function involve main structures, namely, cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, anterior pituitary, or gonads. The book also describes disorders of carbohydrate and fat metabolism, for example, diabetes mellitus, hypoglycemia, coronary artery disease, and hypercholesterolemia. One method for reducing raised serum cholesterol levels is following diets based on corn oils or other unsaturated fat oils. This book is suitable for students of medicine, dieticians, endocrinologists, and general medicine practitioners.
Download or read book Human Endocrinology written by Paul R. Gard and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The endocrine system is an efficient means of controlling, via hormones, large numbers of cells at many different sites in the body and it is the most important factor in the control of the basic processes of the individual, such as metabolism, growth and reproduction. _ Human Endocrinology is a concise lucid explanation of how hormones are secreted by various glands into the blood and dispersed to cells within the body. Each hormone group is described in a separate chapter dealing with the factors affecting the hormones secretion and the use of particular hormones in the treatment of disease. _ Disorders of the endocrine system, such as diabetes and some forms of dwarfism and the use of hormones in medicine (such as oral contraceptives) are covered. The illegal use of hormonal drugs, for example anabolic steroids, in sport is also discussed. _ The author's accessible style and extensive use of figures and tables make this a valuable text for all students studying the subject as part of many bioscience courses including medicine, nursing, physiology, pharmacy pharmacology and biomedical science.
