Diffuse neuro-endocrine system
- Diffuse neuro-endocrine system
-
The Diffuse Neuro-Endocrine System (DNES) consists of cells from the central nervous system (CNS), Peripheral nervous system (PNS) and nearly all organs with the common phenotype: The ability to produce biological active Amines or Peptides which act like Neurotransmitters (NT), Hormones or Paracrine regulators.
It regroups the old APUD system which stated that all these cells originated from the neural tube.
The Neural Type
These include:
The Epithelial type
These include: separate endocrine gland, or parts thereof
unicellular glands incorporated in other epithelial cells
