APUD SYSTEM
• The name APUD is derived from
Amine - for high amine content.
Precursor Uptake - for high uptake of
(amine) precursors.
Decarboxylase - for high content of
the enzyme amino acid
decarboxylase (for conversion of
precursors to amines).
DNES
• Deviation in relative levels of
secretions of different cells in this
system may cause psychosomatic
diseases
• Awareness about APUD or
DNES system will lead to improved
