The functions of the endocrine system cover a broad range of action. Endocrine activity affects the entire body: growth and development, metabolism, sexual activity, and even mental ability and emotions.
The endocrine system is a means of communication between one body part and another.

Anatomy and Physiology
Homeostasis* state of equilibrium
Hormones (chemical messengers) Target Tissues or Target Organs Hypersecretion Hyposecretion

Hormones
chemical substances produced by specialized cells (glands)
released slowly, minute amounts, circulate in blood
some hormones effect the entire body, some effect target organs
most hormones are inactivated or excreted by the liver and kidneys

oxytocin * stimulates contraction of pregnant uterus,
labor, and childbirth* stimulates milk secretion

Thyroid Secretions
thyroxine, T4 triiodothytonine, T3 regulates rate of cellular
metabolism influences physical and
mental development euthyroidism

stimulates cellular metabolism by increasing the rate of oxygen use with subsequent energy and heat production
Faster cellular metabolism increases the cell’s demand for oxygen, so more O2 must be circulated.
Increase O2 demand leads to increase CO2 Increase demand on circulatory system leads to
increase pulse rate and heart activity.

Parathyroid Glands
four glands parathyroid hormone PTH regulates the level of circulating calcium
and phosphate target organs: bones, intestines, kidneys
![Page 12: 1 Medical Terminology Endocrine System Chapter 14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649d3b5503460f94a15e0a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Calcium is essential to blood-clotting mechanism
Calcium increases the tone of heart muscle Calcium plays a significant role in muscle
contraction When blood calcium levels drop, PTH is
secreted to increase calcium levels

Diabetes Mellitus inadequate amount of insulin secreted in absence of insulin; glucose cannot enter the
cells for normal metabolism results in hyperglycemia blood sugar may increase from 300 to 1200
mg/dl of blood and even higher cells deprived of principal nutrient, glucose glycosuria, diuresis, polydipsia, polyphagia
![Page 26: 1 Medical Terminology Endocrine System Chapter 14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649d3b5503460f94a15e0a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus IDDM* Type I* Juvenile diabetes* destruction of Beta cells* more serious form* requires daily insulin injections
![Page 27: 1 Medical Terminology Endocrine System Chapter 14.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062313/56649d3b5503460f94a15e0a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus* NIDDM* type II* maturity onset diabetes* less severe, often diet controlled* oral hypoglycemic agents
A prolonged, excessively high carbohydrate diet over time stimulates the beta cells to secrete insulin. Result: beta cells “burn out”.

accumulation of ketones gestational diabetes mellitus
* deficiency of insulin during pregnancy
