The HypoCCS series aims to bring the latest basic and clinical advances in pituitary-related endocrinology to a broad audience. The BioScientifica rapid-publication system ensures that the content is completely up to date.

This is the 7th volume in a series of HypoCCS publications dedicated to detailed, in-depth analysis of pituitary pathophysiology and disease states. It focuses on the regulation of energy homeostasis, post-secretory regulation of hormone activity and the fading boundaries between the endocrine and immune systems.

Contributors include leading researchers from the USA and Europe: C Auernhammer (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany), VKK Chatterjee (University of Cambridge, UK), DR Clemmons (University of North Carolina School of Medicine), J Frystyk (Aarhus University Hospitals, Denmark), E Ghigo (University of Turin, Italy), P Havel (University of California), TL Horvath and S Diano (Yale University School of Medicine), R Seeley (University of Cincinnati) and M Stenzel-Poore (Oregon Health & Sciences University).

Sections:
Ghrelin, Role of the pituitary in energy homeostasis, Post-secretory regulation of hormone activity, and Neuro-immuno endocrine interface.
