Despite the fact that we all start out as an egg cell in one of our mother's ovaries, these human reproductive organs are surprisingly under-studied. Scientists have been working on creating in vitro ...

The human gut is the largest mammalian organ to produce hormones. In response to food, the hormone-producing cells in this organ secrete dozens of peptides. Now, researchers from the Organoid group ...

The endocrine system uses chemical messengers called hormones to regulate a range of bodily functions through the release of hormones. The endocrine system is a network of glands and organs located ...
