Abstract

Neuroendocrine Regulation of Stress and Human Adaptation

Elena Kovalenko

Stress is an inevitable component of human life, influencing physiological, psychological and behavioral processes. While acute stress responses are essential for survival, chronic or dysregulated stress can contribute to a wide range of disorders, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, depression, anxiety and impaired immune function. At the center of these adaptive responses lies the neuroendocrine system, a highly integrated network that coordinates communication between the brain and peripheral endocrine organs. Understanding the neuroendocrine regulation of stress has become increasingly important as researchers seek to develop more effective strategies for preventing and managing stress related diseases.
