Heart, lipids and hormones
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in general population. Besides well-known risk factors such as hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance and dyslipidemia, growing evidence suggests that hormonal changes in various endocrine diseases also impact the cardiac morphology and function. Recent studies highlight the importance of ectopic intracellular myocardial and pericardial lip...

متن کاملLipids as hormones and second messengers
Some lipids act as hormones to induce responses in target tissues whereas others influence the behavior of cell-surface receptors and/or serve as second messengers; i.e. they are formed as part of the cellular response to extracellular agonists, and directly affect protein kinases, ion channels and other systems that govern cell behavior. Our understanding of these functions on a structural lev...
