Chapter 10 Endocrine System Lecture Outline SCENARIO: 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.

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, androgens Regulation 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 10.5 Classification of HORMONES 1. AMINES > Structural variations of the amino acids > tyrosine, thyroxine and epinephrine norepinephrine. 2.
