🧠 Mammalian Endocrinology

This section focuses on the classic vertebrate endocrine system, where hormones are released into the bloodstream to act on distant target organs. Key areas include:

Hypothalamus-Pituitary Axis: The master command center regulating growth, stress responses, and reproduction.
Thyroid & Parathyroid Glands: Control of metabolic rate, cellular energy expenditure, and calcium homeostasis.
Adrenal Glands: Release of cortisol and adrenaline managing stress, blood pressure, and electrolyte balance.
Endocrine Pancreas: Regulation of blood glucose levels through insulin and glucagon.
Gonadal Hormones: Estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone driving sexual development and reproductive cycles.
