Unifying regulatory motifs in endocrine circuits

Moriya Raz, David S. Glass, Tomer Milo, Yael Korem Kohanim, Omer Karin, Avichai Tendler, Avi Mayo, Uri S. Alon

This study identifies five classes of endocrine circuits in humans, revealing shared structural and regulatory principles across 43 hormone systems.

Hormone circuit analysis explains why most HPA drugs fail for mood disorders and predicts the few that work

Tomer Milo, Shiraz Nir Halber, Moriya Raz, Dor Danan, Avi Mayo, Uri S. Alon

The paper uses a mathematical model of the HPA axis to show that only CRH-targeting drugs can lower long-term cortisol in mood disorders, while other targets fail due to gland-mass compensation.

An opponent process for alcohol addiction based on changes in endocrine gland mass

Omer Karin, Moriya Raz, Uri S. Alon

The paper proposes a mathematical model of opponent processes in alcohol addiction, linking changes in HPA gland mass to {beta}-endorphin secretion and addiction vulnerability.

Human hormone seasonality

Avichai Tendler, Alon Bar, Netta Mendelson Cohen, Omer Karin, Yael Korem Kohanim, Lior Maimon, Tomer Milo, Moriya Raz, Avi Mayo, Amos Tanay, Uri S. Alon

The paper analyzes health records to show seasonal patterns in human hormones, finding that effector hormones peak in winter-spring while upstream pituitary hormones peak in summer, suggesting a circannual clock mechanism.
