Endocrinology & Metabolism
A section of Journal of Clinical Medicine (ISSN 2077-0383).
Section Information
The endocrine system includes the pancreatic islets and other endocrine cells of the digestive system, thyroid, parathyroid, hypothalamic/pituitary gland, adrenal, and gonadal endocrine cells, as well as other hormone regulatory pathways involved in other processes such as aging and pregnancy. Metabolism involves all the chemical processes at the cellular level that lead to the regulation of energy and relevant cellular substrate pathways, such as those of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Both endocrinology and metabolism encompass a broad field within clinical care and some of the most relevant public health issues in current times. Articles are welcome from a broad range of disciplines and approaches within the field of clinical medicine.
