Vital role of hormones in predicting long term health of men: Research
Hindustan TimesResearchers have found that a hormone that develops in men during puberty plays a critical role in predicting early in life whether a person will acquire specific diseases later in life. Vital role of hormones in predicting long term health of men: Research Researchers from the University of Nottingham have found that the novel insulin-like peptide hormone INSL3, which is a crucial early biomarker for predicting age-related disease, is consistent across extended periods of time. The team examined blood samples taken twice, four years apart, from 3,000 men from eight regional centres spread across Europe's north, south, east, and west, including the UK. Professor Richard Ivell added: "Now we know the important role this hormone plays in predicting disease and how it varies amongst men we are turning our attention to finding out what factors have the most influence on the level of INSL3 in the blood.
