The journal features studies on the role of hormones during development, particularly how endocrine signaling influences growth, differentiation, and reproductive processes. - Pathophysiology of endocrine disorders:
The journal addresses the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying endocrine disorders, such as thyroid dysfunction, adrenal disorders, and reproductive system diseases. - Emerging technologies in endocrinology:
It also emphasizes the use of novel technologies and methodologies in the study of endocrine functions, including genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics.
Trending and Emerging
- MicroRNA and non-coding RNA in endocrinology:
There is a growing emphasis on the role of microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs in regulating endocrine functions and their implications in diseases, particularly in cancer and metabolic disorders. - Endocrine disruptors and environmental impacts:
Research focusing on endocrine disruptors, their mechanisms, and their effects on human health and development is gaining traction, highlighting the importance of environmental factors in endocrinology. - Sexual dimorphism in hormone action:
Emerging studies are increasingly exploring the differences in hormonal responses between sexes, particularly in metabolic and reproductive contexts, acknowledging the complexity of hormonal signaling. - Integration of systems biology in endocrinology:
There is a trend towards integrating systems biology approaches to better understand the complex interactions within the endocrine system and their implications for health and disease. - Therapeutic targeting of hormonal pathways:
Research aimed at identifying therapeutic strategies that target specific hormonal pathways to treat endocrine disorders is on the rise, reflecting advancements in precision medicine.
Declining or Waning
- Historical perspectives on endocrinology:
There has been a noticeable decrease in articles focusing on historical perspectives of endocrine systems, as the field moves towards more contemporary and applied research. - Invertebrate endocrinology:
Research pertaining to invertebrate endocrine systems has dwindled, possibly due to the increasing emphasis on vertebrate models that are more relevant to human health. - Basic research on classical hormones:
The exploration of classical hormones such as insulin, glucagon, and thyroid hormones in isolation is less frequent, as the focus shifts towards complex interactions and multi-hormonal systems. - Non-hormonal endocrine disruptors:
There appears to be a waning interest in the effects of non-hormonal endocrine disruptors, as the field increasingly prioritizes the study of hormonal interactions and their physiological impacts.
