Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Endocrine disorders result from dysfunction of the endocrine system. The endocrine system includes the glands that secrete hormones, the receptors that respond to hormones, and the organs directly affected by hormones. Dysfunction may occur at any point and affect the body's metabolic process, growth and development, reproductive aging, and many other physiological activities. Endocrine disorders are complex chronic diseases. More and more people are suffering from them. However, the current therapeutic options and effects are all limited and often accompanied by adverse reactions.
This Special Issue will cover all research on the molecular mechanisms of the pathophysiology of all endocrine disorders, cellular and animal disease models, new drugs, and cell and gene therapy options.
