| description | The endocrine system relies on complex cell signaling and epigenetic processes to adjust to the body’s needs. However, stressors such as climate change and heat can disrupt the endocrine system. This study aims to collect and systematically review evidence from publications exploring how climate change impacts endocrine laboratory parameters. The review process included developing research questions, defining inclusion and exclusion criteria, conducting database searches, screening and selecting relevant publications, collecting and analyzing data, interpreting the findings, and drawing conclusions. This review identified multiple endocrine parameters linked to climate change and the mechanisms by which various stressors disrupt endocrine function. Climate change, especially heat stress, affects the production and levels of key hormones. The mechanisms underlying the disruption of key hormones are also explored in this paper. This review provides a clear overview of how climate change influences endocrine parameters and outlines the processes underlying stress-triggered endocrine disruption. |
