This complex pathophysiological process is characterized by the infiltration of target organs, with lymphocytes organizing themselves into distinct T- and B-cell rich zones.
The tissue responses to different catecholamines depend on the fact that there are two major types of adrenergic receptors (adrenoceptors) on the surface of target organs and tissues.
Diseases of the endocrine system can result from the oversecretion or undersecretion of hormones or from the inability of target organs or tissues to respond to hormones effectively.
The hypothalamus produces specific neurohormones that stimulate the pituitary gland to secrete specific pituitary hormones that affect any of a number of target organs, including the adrenal cortex, the gonads (testes and ovaries), and the thyroid gland.
The evolution of the endocrine system in the more advanced vertebrates with jaws (Gnathostomata) has involved both the appearance of new hormones and the further evolution of some of those already present in agnathans; in addition, extensive specialization of target organs has occurred to permit new patterns of response.
Would differences in the size of target organs explain ganglia structural asymmetry?
Compared to observations in FTIM studies, chronic studies identified toxicities in an additional 39% of target organs.
During cardiopulmonary bypass, leukocyte filters have the potential to remove leukocytes, thereby reducing contact of activated leukocytes with the endothelium of target organs.
Adopted from clinical practice from long ago, palpation examines the mechanical properties of target organs following the general logic shared by all modern imaging methods: it explores tissues detecting the effects determined by an external force.
Transmission to humans may occur via ingestion of contaminated fish in conjunction with compromise of the normal immune barrier function of the host GI tract, leading to bacteremia and seeding of target organs.
This paper we will consider a selection of target organs for oestrogen for which data are available in women with TS with particular reference to the starting age of oestrogen and possible effects of dose reduction in adult life.
