La recherche en endocrinologie a été un des points forts de la biologie française au cours des dernières décennies. Elle joue un rôle majeur sur le plan fondamental où, en dehors de son intérêt propre, elle sert de modèle à la compréhension des mécanismes généraux de signalisation. En outre, elle débouche sur certains des problèmes les plus préoccupants de santé publique, donnant lieu à de très importantes approches pharmacologiques et thérapeutiques. L'objet de ce rapport est d'évoquer les plus importants de ces problèmes, situés à l'interface des sciences médicales et des sciences de la société. du point de vue strictement médical, quatre questions se posent avec une acuité croissante : les relations entre hormones et cancers, le traitement substitutif de la ménopause, la contraception hormonale au long terme et l'influence de certaines hormones sur le développement de l'obésité et du diabète de type 2. Un autre sujet important concerne le vieillissement, conçu comme un ensemble complexe de facteurs biologiques, cognitifs, sociaux et finalement sociétaux. Un aspect, plus technique mais également de grande importance, concerne les perturbateurs hormonaux, des produits chimiques qui peuvent modifier de façon indésirable la production de certaines hormones. Un dernier aspect concerne l'utilisation des hormones hors de la médecine, notamment chez les animaux comestibles. L'ambition de ce rapport est de donner l'arrière-plan scientifique permettant de comprendre les mécanismes biologiques impliqués dans ce groupe de problèmes majeurs de santé publique. Les voies de recherches actuelles sont résumées, les voies futures sont indiquées et des recommandations sont présentées. Les principaux partenaires institutionnels intervenant dans chaque cas sont cités. Lorsqu'elles existent, les controverses scientifiques et quelquefois politico-médiatiques sont explicitées. L'ouvrage traite les questions suivantes: 1-Les cancers hormonodépendants: Les mécanismes de base, les cancers du sein, les cancers de la prostate. 2-Le traitement substitutif de la ménopause. 3-L'obésité, les diabète de type 2. 4-Les hormones et le vieillissement. 5-Les perturbateurs hormonaux 6-Les hormones en Zootechnie.

Pharmacotherapy is an important part of the treatment of major phychiatric disorders. Although psychiatric drugs can have benefits for patients, adverse syndromes are common, causing distress for patients. This book will help psychiatrists, GPs pharmacists and nurses manage adverse syndromes associated with psychiatric drugs.

Basic Medical Endocrinology, Third Edition provides up-to-date coverage of rapidly unfolding advances in the understanding of hormones involved in regulating most aspects of bodily functions. The discussion focuses on molecular and cellular aspects of hormone production and action firmly rooted in the context of integrative physiology. Topics are approached from the perspective of a physiologist with four decades of teaching experience. This book is richly illustrated with both descriptive schematic diagrams and laboratory findings obtained in clinical studies. Each of the thir
