Endocrine gland hormones at target cells "Permissiveness" is the situation in which a hormone cannot exert its full effects without the presence of another hormone. "Synergism" occurs when two or more hormones produce the same effects in a target cell and their results are amplified. "Antagonism" occurs when a hormone opposes or reverses the effect of another hormone. The endocrine glands belong to the body's control system. The hormones which they produce help to regulate the functions of cells and tissues throughout the body. Endocrine organs are activated to release their hormones by humoral, neural or hormonal stimuli. Negative feedback is important
Multiple endocrine neoplasia all but abandoned in the medical literature. Another early report was Schimke "et al." in 1968. OMIM also includes a fourth form of multiple endocrine neoplasia ("MEN4"), associated with CDKN1B. The presentation is believed to overlap that of MEN1 and MEN2. The "MEN1" gene consists of ten exons, spanning about 10 kb, and encodes a 610 amino acid protein named menin. The first exon and the last part of exon 10 are not translated. A main transcript of 2.8 kb has been described in a large variety of human tissues (pancreas, thymus, adrenal glands, thyroid, testis, leukocytes, heart, brain, lung,
