It has been ten years since the National Hormone and Pituitary Program (then called the National Pituitary Agency) sponsored a symposium on human growth hormone (hGH). Numerous advances have occurred during this period. This book does not attempt to summarize past achievements. Rather, it deals with the contemporary issues in hGH research. A discussion of the present state of the art, of necessity, includes a review of the past. Some of the topics herein discussed include the following: 1. Growth hormone releasing factor (GRF). In 1973, the growth hormone inhibitory factor (somatostatin) had recently been discovered. The search for a releasing factor in humans led to its discovery not in the pituitary but in a pancreatic tumor that secreted growth hormone. The advances are discussed in this book. The current hope is that GRF will eventually become an effective therapeutic agent for idiopathic hypopituitarism in childhood and adolescence. 2. Biosynthesis of hGR by recombinant DNA technology. Current advances are discussed. Although hGH is not yet an approved drug, it will eventually become one. This will broaden our horizons in terms of hGH effectiveness in disorders other than hypopituitary dwarfism. The current experience with this type of hGH in both the Vnited States and Europe is reviewed by several authors.

This book provides current information on synthesis of plant hormones, how their concentrations are regulated, and how they modulate various plant processes. It details how plants sense and tolerate such factors as drought, salinity, and cold temperature, factors that limit plant productivity on earth. It also explains how plants sense two other environmental signals, light and gravity, and modify their developmental patterns in response to those signals. This book takes the reader from basic concepts to the most up-to-date thinking on these topics.* Provides clear synthesis and review of hormonal and environmental regulation of plant growth and development* Contains more than 600 illustrations supplementary information on techniques and/or related topics of interest* Single-authored text provides uniformity of presentation and integration of the subject matter* References listed alphabetically in each section

The main argument of this book is that cell signalling via nerves, hormones, local mediators and growth factors are not distinct phenomena, but branches of one general mechanism and should therefore be studied in an integrated manner. This volume is designed to act as a bridge between general texts and is aimed at biologists coming to the topic from a variety of backgrounds. The first two chapters introduce the general concepts of intracellular signalling and also cover the topic of direct cell-to-cell communication by cytoplasmic bridges (gap junctions). The remaining chapters cover the first and second messengers, starting with their structure, synthesis and release, progressing to the target cell and then working from the membrane inwards towards the nucleus. There is also a section on the mechanism of nervous conduction and the regulation of the ionic balace of cells. The final chapters discuss the regulation of cell growth and division and the special case of messengers acting via nuclear receptors.

Plant hormones playa crucial role in controlling the way in which plants grow and develop. While metabolism provides the power and building blocks for plant life it is the hormones that regulate the speed of growth of the individual parts and integrate these parts to produce the form that we recognize as a plant. In addition, they playa controlling role in the processes of reproduction. This book is a description of these natural chemicals: how they are synthesized and metabolized; how they work; how we measure them; and a description of some of the roles they play in regulating plant growth and development. This is not a conference proceedings but a selected collection of newly written, integrated, illustrated reviews describing our knowledge of plant hormones and the experimental work which is the foundation of this knowledge. The information in these pages is directed at advanced students and professionals in the plant sciences: botanists, biochemists, molecular biologists, or those in the horticultural, agricultural and forestry sciences. It is intended that the book should serve as a text and guide to the literature for graduate level courses in the plant hormones, or as a part of courses in plant or comparative development. Scientists in other disciplines who wish to know more about the plant hormones and their role in plants should also find this volume invaluable It is hoped that anyone with a reasonable scientific background can find valuable information in this book expounded in an understandable fashion.

Humans have thousands, perhaps millions, of hormones in our bloodstreams. These complex chemical messengers regulate the function of our cells and organs. They keep our bodies working properly, coordinating processes like growth, fertility and metabolism. Meet Your Hormones explores and explains this fascinating hidden world: what hormones are, what they do, and why we can't live without these super-fast chemical messengers. It includes in-depth profiles on each of the most important hormones at work in the human body and helpful advice on how we can look after our own health through greater knowledge of our hormones. The book is laid out in four parts: An introduction to hormones: What are hormones, what they do and how they work; Who discovered hormones; How they are made and how they interact with the body's systems; Hormones with multiple functions; The science of endocrinology. The role of hormones: Growth; Bones; Sexual development and reproduction; Menopause and aging; Sleep; Brain function; Aggression, mood and stress; Blood pressure and heart function; the Immune response; Food metabolism and weight; Disease. Hormone deficiencies: What are the symptoms and effects? Plus lifestyle and dietary advice on how we can influence hormones. The future for hormones: The latest thinking and research; Where would we be without hormones and hormonal therapy; Hormone truths and myths; Use of hormones in agriculture; Hormones in genders and gender reassignment; Synthetic hormones; Fertility; Performance-enhancing drugs; Hormone inhibitors; Hormones in cancer; Digital hormones; New discoveries such as artificial glands, and the future for endocrinology Like Meet Your Bacteria (9780228101260), Meet Your Hormones introduces readers to a part of the body that they may not consider until something goes wrong with it. It is a wide-ranging introduction to another secret but essential world inside your own body.

Emphasis has also been placed on the new findings on plant hormones deriving from the expanding use ofmolecular biology as a tool to understand these fascinating regulatory molecules. Even at the present time, when the role of genes in regulating all aspects of growth and development is considered of prime importance, it is still clear that the path of development is nonetheless very much under hormonal control, either via changes in hormone levels in response to changes in gene transcription, or with the hormones themselves as regulators ofgene transcription. This is not a conference proceedings, but a selected collection ofnewly written, integrated, illustrated reviews describing our knowledge of plant hormones, and the experimental work that is the foundation of this knowledge.

Although testosterone is considered a male sex hormone, what many people don’t realize is that this vital hormone is also present in females. For men, it is mainly responsible for stimulating and controlling characteristics that are considered “masculine,” like muscles and hair growth. However for both sexes, low testosterone levels can cause countless health problems including memory loss, anxiety and depression, osteoporosis, increased cholesterol levels, weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and infertility. While testosterone supplements are available, most are ineffective and some are even dangerous.In the updated third edition of Testosterone Is Your Friend, author Roger Mason presents the latest and most effective natural treatments and supplements to help raise testosterone levels. The book begins by looking at how the body uses testosteroneand how this hormone functions differently in men and women. Later chapters examine how testosterone deficiency affects various health conditions. In addition to presenting safe treatments for elevating testosterone levels naturally, the author also explains how simple it is to test the levels yourself. It’s time to re-energize. With Testosterone Is Your Friend, you will have the latest information on how to increase your testosterone levels safely and naturally. By following the advice within, you can improve not only your sex life, but also the overall quality of your life.
