hormone (organic material, <materials by composition>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Any of numerous organic compounds that serve as chemical messengers. They are secreted by a gland or organ into the body fluids of an animal, particularly the bloodstream, by a gland or organ, are transported to another part of the organism, and trigger or regulate particular functions such as growth, metabolism, reproduction, and the functioning of various organs. The term may also refer to similar compounds produced by plants or produced synthetically. The term was coined in 1905 from the Greek "horman," meaning "to set in motion."

| Dutch ..... Een van de talrijke organische verbindingen die als chemische boodschapper fungeren. Hormonen worden via een klier of orgaan uitgescheiden in de lichaamsvloeistoffen van dieren, in het bijzonder de bloedbaan, worden vervolgens naar een ander deel van het organisme getransporteerd en initiëren of reguleren daar specifieke functies, zoals de groei, de stofwisseling, de voortplanting en de werking van diverse organen. De term kan ook verwijzen naar soortgelijke verbindingen die door planten worden geproduceerd of kunstmatig worden vervaardigd. De term werd in 1905 bedacht en is afgeleid van het Griekse 'horman', dat 'in werking stellen' betekent. |
