The field of molecular endocrinology has witnessed a decade of explosive growth of new information from scientists' laboratories. The cellular pathways through which most hormones act are now understood. Thus, we now know how hormonal signals are transferred, through specific receptors, to enzymes and genes within the cells that regulate cell function and growth.

Endocrinology is the study of hormones. Hormones are made in the thyroid gland, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, and pancreas.
