Endocrine System
Lecture OutlineSCENARIO: Katie was getting nervous. At 16,
she was the only one in her group of friends
who had not started menstruating. Katie has
always dreamed of having three beautiful
children and she was worried. Her mother took
her to see Dr. Josephine, who ordered several
blood test. When the results came back, Dr.
Josephine gently explained to Katie and her
mother that Katie would never be able to have
children and would never menstruate. Dr.
Josephine then asked Katie to wait in the outer
room while she spoke privately to her mother.She explained to Katie’s mom that Katie had
Androgen Insensivity Syndrome. Though Katie
was genetically male and her gonads produce
more of the male reproductive hormone,
testosterone, than the female reproductive
hormone female, estrogen.Endocrine System Glands

Figure 10.1Chemical Messengers
> Are hormones that allows the cells to
communicate with each other to regulate
body activities.
> Four classes: Autocrine, Paracrine,
Neurotransmitter, and Endocrine
>» Endocrine chemical messengers are
called HORMONESCell Secretion Types.
Autocrine
>» Secreted by cells in local effect area and influences
the activity of the same cell.
>» Example - eicosanoids
Paracrine
>» Produced by a wide variety of tissues and secreted
in ECF
» Example — somatostatin, histamineCell Secretion Types
Neurotransmitter
> produced by neuron, secreted in the synaptic cleft
that activate adjacent cell
> Example - Acethycholine
Endocrine
» secreted into blood and bind to receptor sites
» Example - epinephrine and insulin, estrogen, GH,

> composed of endocrine glands and

» Endocrine glands and cells secretes
chemical messengers called hormones
into the bloodstream or blood circulation
to target tissues or effectors.Types of Hormones
Water-soluble hormones:
> includes proteins, peptides, amino acids
>» most common, can dissolve in blood
>» Examples - growth hormone, antidiuretic, prolactin
Lipid-soluble hormones:
» includes steroids and eicosanoids
» Examples - LH, FSH, androgensRegulation of Hormone Levels
Negative Feedback mechanism
» the hormone’s secretion is inhibited by the
hormone itself once blood levels have reached a
certain point.
Positive Feedback mechanism
> hormones are regulated as exemplified by tropic
hormone action.
>» The response to the stimulus does not stop
or reverse the stimulus, but instead keeps the
sequence of event going.Negative and Positive Feedback
Figure 10.5Classification of HORMONES
1. AMINES
> Structural variations of the amino acids
> tyrosine, thyroxine and epinephrine
norepinephrine.
2. PROTEINS
> Are chains of amino acids
> Insulin, growth hormones, and calcitonin.STEROIDS
> Includes cortisol, and aldosterone, estrogen
and progesterone, and testosterone.HYPOTHALAMUS
> superior to the pituitary gland and
inferior to the thalamus

the pituitary glandPituitary Gland
> Small gland in brain
> Controlled by hypothalamus
> Divided into 2 regions:
Anterior and Posterior

Growth Hormone

stimulates growth of bones, muscles, and
organs
» Stimulate cells to produce insulin like growth
factors
» Increase the rate of CHON synthesis
» increases the use of fats as energy
metabolism.Growth Hormone
> It increases blood glucose levels by reducing
glucose utilization (insulin antagonist)
» Abnormalities
> Too much GH causes giantism
> Too little GH causes pituitary dwarfismAnterior Pituitary Hormones.
Prolactin
>» AKA mammotropic hormone, lactotropic
hormone
> Target tissues: mammary glands and
ovaries
> Functions: milk production
> It is necessary for breast development and
lactation> Prolactin Releasing Hormone (PRH)
stimulate the secretion from the
hypothalamus.
> Prolactin Inhibiting Hormone inhibits
the secretion from the hypothalamusAnterior Pituitary Hormones
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
(TSH)
* AKA thyrotropin
* Target tissues: thyroid gland
* Functions: regulates thyroid gland secretions
¢ Thyroxine (T4) and thriodothyronine T3 by the TG
* Thyrotropin releasing hormone - triggers the
pituitary gland to release TSH.* Abnormalities:
Too much TSH, thyroid gland enlarges
Too little TSH, thyroid gland shrinks26

reduces blood calcium level when high
It inhibits osteoclastic activity
It lowers phosphate levels
It helps maintain stable and strong bones matrix.

Target tissues: bones and kidneys
Functions: regulates blood Ca** levels (more
than calcitonin)
If Ca 2+ is low then osteoclasts break down bone
matrix and less Ca 2* is lost in urine.
If Ca 2+ is high then osteoclasts don’t break down
bone matrix and more Ca ?* is lost in urine.aL

> is a mixed gland, with an exocrine portion and
an endocrine portion.
> The exocrine portion of the pancreas secretes
digestive enzymes.
> The endocrine part of the pancreas consists of
pancreatic islets (islets of Langerhans), which
are dispersed throughout the exocrine portion
of the pancreas.Pancreas
> The islets consist of three cell types, each of
which secretes a separate hormone.
> Alpha cells secrete glucagon,
> Beta cells secrete insulin,

Insulin
Target tissues: liver, skeletal muscle, adipose
tissue
¢ Functions
* regulates blood glucose levels
¢ after a meal glucose levels are high and
insulin is secreted
* extra glucose is stored in form of glycogenInsulin Abnormalities
Diabetes mellitus:
Causes: too little insulin or faulty insulin receptors
Symptoms: exaggerated appetite, excess urine,
dehydration, thirst, fatigue
Type |: insulin dependent (daily injections required)
Type Il: insulin independent, often found in obese
people, can be treated with diet but can turn into

Glucagon
* Target tissues: liver
* Function:
* regulates blood glucose levels
* between meals glucose levels drop and
glucagon is secreted
* glucagon allows glycogen to be broken down
into glucose58
