Abstract: | The presence of biorhythms in the endocrine organs (pituitary gland, adrenal gland, thyroid gland, islet organ, gonades , and kidney) are reviewed. Biorhythms ( circadian and circannual rhythms) have an influence on the action of this organs. The acrophases of the hormones in the serum have different peaks and their time-correlation is different. The importance of this data for experiments and for the clinical practice is discussed. |
