Endocrine Gene Expression

Meaning

Endocrine Gene Expression describes the precise molecular process by which the genetic information encoded in DNA is transcribed and translated into functional proteins, specifically those involved in the synthesis, regulation, or action of hormones. This mechanism determines the concentration and efficacy of key endocrine signaling molecules throughout the body. Alterations in this expression profile can directly lead to hormonal imbalances and subsequent physiological dysfunction.
