Hormones regulate growth through complex interactions between the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and peripheral endocrine glands. The hypothalamus secretes releasing hormones that stimulate the pituitary to secrete tropic hormones, which then target endocrine glands. Key hormones include growth hormone, insulin-like growth factors, estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, cortisol, and thyroid hormones. These hormones promote growth through tissue-specific effects on protein, bone, fat and muscle development.
The document discusses various mechanisms of transport across cell membranes, including diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, active transport, and bulk transport. Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration down a gradient. Facilitated diffusion utilizes protein channels to transport molecules that cannot diffuse directly through the membrane. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to low. Active transport requires energy and transports molecules against a gradient using carrier proteins. Bulk transport moves many molecules at once through endocytosis, exocytosis, or vesicle transport.

Blind Spots in AI and Formulation Science Knowledge Pyramid (Updated Perspect...Ajaz Hussain
油
This presentation delves into the systemic blind spots within pharmaceutical science and regulatory systems, emphasizing the significance of "inactive ingredients" and their influence on therapeutic equivalence. These blind spots, indicative of normalized systemic failures, go beyond mere chance occurrences and are ingrained deeply enough to compromise decision-making processes and erode trust.
Historical instances like the 1938 FD&C Act and the Generic Drug Scandals underscore how crisis-triggered reforms often fail to address the fundamental issues, perpetuating inefficiencies and hazards.
The narrative advocates a shift from reactive crisis management to proactive, adaptable systems prioritizing continuous enhancement. Key hurdles involve challenging outdated assumptions regarding bioavailability, inadequately funded research ventures, and the impact of vague language in regulatory frameworks.
The rise of large language models (LLMs) presents promising solutions, albeit with accompanying risks necessitating thorough validation and seamless integration.
Tackling these blind spots demands a holistic approach, embracing adaptive learning and a steadfast commitment to self-improvement. By nurturing curiosity, refining regulatory terminology, and judiciously harnessing new technologies, the pharmaceutical sector can progress towards better public health service delivery and ensure the safety, efficacy, and real-world impact of drug products.
