Endocrine Regulators

Meaning

Endocrine Regulators are a diverse and critical class of signaling molecules, including endogenous hormones, various growth factors, and certain environmental compounds, that precisely control the synthesis, secretion, transport, binding, or eventual elimination of the body’s native hormones. These substances maintain the delicate, essential homeostatic balance of the entire endocrine system, ensuring appropriate physiological responses to both internal and external stimuli. They are absolutely essential for the regulation of metabolism, reproduction, growth, and mood throughout the entire human lifespan.
