中文詞源
hormone 荷爾蒙，激素
來自希臘語horman,驅動，使移動，來自PIE*er,移動，使。古希臘著名醫(yī)生Hippocrates用來指人體中一種重要的生命元素，后19世紀英國生理學家Ernest Henry借用該希臘詞來指荷爾蒙。
英文詞源
- hormone (n.)
- 1905, from Greek hormon "that which sets in motion," present participle of horman "impel, urge on," from horme "onset, impulse," from PIE *or-sma-, from root *er- "to move, set in motion." Used by Hippocrates to denote a vital principle; modern meaning coined by English physiologist Ernest Henry Starling (1866-1927). Jung used horme (1915) in reference to hypothetical mental energy that drives unconscious activities and instincts. Related: Hormones.
