Journal of Endocrinology (2023) 257, e220271<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong><br \/>\n1 &#8211; Metabolic function refers to the continuous chemical processes within cells and organisms that convert food into usable energy, build and repair tissues, and sustain life. This includes vital processes like breathing, blood circulation, and cell maintenance, even during rest. The two main categories of metabolic reactions are anabolism, which builds larger molecules and uses energy, and catabolism, which breaks down larger molecules to release energy, such as the digestion of food<\/p>\n<p>2 &#8211; Inflammation immunology describes the immune system&#8217;s response to tissue damage or infection, an innate, nonspecific defense mechanism that serves to eliminate harmful agents and promote repair. Inflammation, or inflammation, involves immune cells and molecules drawing more blood to the damaged site, causing redness, heat, swelling, and pain. While a protective process, excessive or chronic inflammation can become harmful and contribute to autoimmune diseases or other conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inflammation is part of the body\u2019s innate immune response and is an essential process that not only defends against harmful bacteria and pathogens but also plays a key role in the maintenance and repair of tissues.
