endocrine, immune, & nervous systems
Homeostasis through Feedback
Feedback MechanismsLiving organisms use biochemical pathways
in response to environmental conditions in order to maintain a constant internal environment
Maintaining HomeostasisInvolves communication between cells
Single-celled communication http://

Multicellular communicationImmune System: 43Nervous System: 48-50Endocrine System: 45
Positive Feedback Ex: Oxytocin
Negative Feedback Ex: Insulin
Immune System

Life relentlessly attempts to murder you
Your ninja cells fight back
Contact CommunicationCells pass messages directly to each other
Plant cells Animal cells
Nonspecific (innate) ImmunityDefenses that activate immediately upon
infection
PlantsOrganism Barrier: barkCellular: cellulose cell wallMolecular: terpenoids, phenolics, alkaloids
InvertebratesOrganism Barrier: Chitinous exoskeletonCellular: Hemocytes ingest bacteriaMolecular: Lysozyme enzymes break cell
walls
VertebratesOrganism Barrier: SkinCellular: Neutrophils and macrophagesMolecular: Interferon & 30 protein
complement system
Inflammatory responseHistamine and citokine signals trigger
capillaries to dilate
Specific (adaptive) ImmunityVertebrate defenses remembered after
initial exposures

Long Distance Communication
SignalsMolecules produced by endocrine cellsTypically travel through circulatory system
Example: Insulin
Ex: Human Growth Hormone
