Proceedings of the 5th All-Russian Congress of Endocrinology on the Molecular and Biochemical Aspects of Endocrinology

Abstract

The multifaceted nature of the development of such a biomedical discipline as endocrinology in recent years is due to the achievements of molecular endocrinology. The results are impressive: in addition to traditional topics related to neuro- and immuno-endocrine relationships, the problem of obesity is being successfully developed in connection with the discovery of the hormone actively involved in this process - leptin.
