What is the Endocrine System?
Series of cells, tissues, and organs that secrete hormones into body fluids (blood).
Hormone= a chemical secreted by endocrine glands which has a specific effect on another cell or organ.

Where are the major endocrine glands located?
• Added info
– Gland= organ that is made up of epithelial tissue
– Secrete hormones.

What do hormones control?
• Reproduction• Growth and development• Maintain homeostasis• Regulation of metabolism• Increasing bodies defenses• Gets “stuff” through cell
membranes.
![Page 6: The Endocrine System How our hormones function The Endocrine System Clip.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e035503460f94aef40b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How do hormones work?
Hormones are produced by specialized cells in glands.
Glands secrete hormones into extra-cellular fluids
Blood transfers hormones to target sites
Hormones cause changes in target cells
![Page 7: The Endocrine System How our hormones function The Endocrine System Clip.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e035503460f94aef40b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What organic compounds are hormones made of?
Amino acid-based hormones
Steroids – made from cholesterol; sex hormones, and adrenal cortex
Prostaglandins – local hormones made from lipids
![Page 8: The Endocrine System How our hormones function The Endocrine System Clip.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e035503460f94aef40b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What are the two types of hormones? Fig 9.1
• Steroid Hormones
– Soluble in fat. Penetrate cell membrane.
– Reach nucleus
• Nonsteroid Hormones
– Not soluble in fat. Bind to cell membrane.
– Cascade of chemical reactions. Adrenalin The non Steroid
Hormone
Steroid Hormone

How are Hormone Secretions Controlled?
Negative Feedback System
Gland A secretes causing Gland B to secrete. Gland B’s secretions inhibit A. Like a thermostat.
Nerve Control
Controlled by the brain. Complicated.
There are Positive feedback systems- but they are limited.
Neg.Sys.

What can go wrong if there is a loss of hormonal control?
• Dwarfism (Hypopitutiary dwarfism)– GH= Growth hormone– When inadequate amounts are secreted.– Short, underdeveloped, lack full adult
sexual features.– Treatment: Hormone therapy if diagnosed early

Gigantism can also be an issue.
• Too much growth hormone.
• 8ft +
• Usually caused by a tumor that has developed in the pituitary gland causing too much GH to be secreted.
• Life expectancy is not full due
to strain on the heart.

The Pituitary Gland
Location: Between the eyes and ears.
Hangs by the hypothalamus stalk.
Has two functional lobes
Anterior pituitary – glandular tissue
Posterior pituitary – nervous tissue

6 Hormones of the Anterior Pituitary
Gland Growth Hormone (GH)- Stimulates Mitosis
Prolactin- Milk Production After Birth of Baby
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)- Plays role in MetabolismAdrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) And
Luteinizing hormone (LH)- Releases egg from follicle & regulates testosterone
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)- Stimulates follicles to develop in the ovaries & sperm to develop in the testes.

The 2 Hormones of the Posterior Pituitary
Oxytocin- Contracts uterus during labor & stimulates milk ejection.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)- Inhibits urine production, can increase blood pressure through vasoconstriction/water retention.

Thyroid Gland
Butterfly shape at the base of the throat
Produces two hormones
Thyroid hormones (T4 & T3) regulate the metabolism of carbs, lipids, & proteins.
Calcitonin decrease Ca+ in the blood (more for your bones).

What can go wrong with the Thyroid?
A goiter.
A lack of Iodine in the diet (3rd world countries) or too much TSH (Thyroid Stimulating hormone)

Parathyroid Glands
On each of the 4 corners of the thyroid.
Stimulate osteoclasts to remove calcium from bone
Stimulate the kidneys and intestine to absorb more calciumRaise calcium levels in the blood

Adrenal Glands Two glands
Cortex – outer glandular region
Medulla – inner neural tissue region
Sit on top of the kidneys

Hormones of the Adrenal Cortex
Glucocorticoids (including cortisone and cortisol)
Increases the use of fat, proteins (A.A) and sugar when body needs energy
Mineralocorticoids (aldosterone)Regulate electrolyte balance
Target organ is the kidney

Hormones of the Adrenal Cortex
Sex hormones
Produced in the inner layer of the adrenal cortex
Androgens (male) and some estrogen (female)
![Page 21: The Endocrine System How our hormones function The Endocrine System Clip.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e035503460f94aef40b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Hormones of the Adrenal Medulla
Produces two similar hormones that prepare the body to deal with short-term stress
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine

Pancreatic Islets The islets of the pancreas produce hormones
Insulin – allows glucose to cross plasma membranes into cells from beta cells
Glucagon – allows glucose to enter the blood from alpha cells
These hormones are antagonists that maintain blood sugar homeostasis.

Development Aspects ofthe Endocrine System
Menopause
Growth hormone production declines with age
Many endocrine glands decrease output with age
