Anti Inflammatory Endocrinology

Meaning

This specialized field focuses on the bidirectional relationship between the endocrine system and systemic inflammation, specifically investigating how hormones and their signaling pathways can actively suppress or resolve chronic inflammatory states. It acknowledges that persistent low-grade inflammation, or ‘inflammaging,’ is a primary driver of endocrine dysfunction and age-related pathology. Clinical interventions in this domain aim to restore hormonal balance to leverage the body’s natural anti-inflammatory mechanisms. This approach is central to preventing metabolic and autoimmune disorders rooted in chronic cellular stress.
