Albumin ♂

Albumin is a multifunctional protein synthesized by the liver. It maintains oncotic pressure in blood vessels, aiding in fluid balance between blood and tissues. Additionally, albumin binds to and transports various substances, including hormones such as testosterone, estrogen, and cortisol, as well as fatty acids, and drugs. Its role in buffering pH and antioxidant activity contributes to overall physiological stability.
