Endocrine System: Overview
• Acts with the nervous system to coordinate and integrate the activity of body cells
• Influences metabolic activities by means of hormones transported in the blood
• Responses occur more slowly but tend to last longer than those of the nervous system
• Endocrine glands: pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, and pineal glands
![Page 3: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Endocrine System: Overview
• Some organs produce both hormones and exocrine products (e.g., pancreas)
• The hypothalamus has both neural and endocrine functions
• secondary endocrine include adipose cells, thymus, cells in the walls of the small intestine, stomach, kidneys, and heart

Chemical Messengers: Review• Hormone:
• Autocrines:
• Paracrines:
• Autocrines and paracrines are local chemical messengers and are not considered part of the endocrine system

Target Cell Activation
• Target cell activation depends on three factors
1. Blood levels of the hormone
2. Relative number of receptors on or in the target cell
3. Affinity of binding between receptor and hormone

Hormones in the Blood• Hormones are removed from the blood by
• Degrading enzymes
• Kidneys
• Liver
• These factors influence a hormone’s half-life

Interaction of Hormones at Target Cells
• Multiple hormones may interact in several ways!
• Permissiveness:
• Synergism:
• Antagonism:
![Page 14: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Control of Hormone Release
• Blood levels of hormones• Are controlled by negative feedback systems
• Vary only within a narrow desirable range
• Hormones are synthesized and released in response to
1. Humoral stimuli
2. Neural stimuli
3. Hormonal stimuli
![Page 15: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Humoral Stimuli
• Changing blood levels of ions and nutrients directly stimulates secretion of hormones
• Example: Ca2+ in the blood
• Declining blood Ca2+ concentration
• This hormone causes Ca2+ concentrations to

• Hormones stimulate other endocrine organs to release their hormones
• Involve feedback loops

The Pituitary Gland and Hypothalamus
• The pituitary gland (hypophysis) has two major lobes
1. Posterior pituitary (lobe) (neurohypophysis):
• Glial-like cells and nerve fibers
2. Anterior pituitary (lobe) (adenohypophysis)
• Glandular tissue

When appropriatelystimulated, hypothalamic neurons secrete releasing and inhibiting hormones into the primary capillary plexus.
Hypothalamic hormones travel through the portal veins to the anterior pituitary where they stimulate or inhibit release of hormones from the anterior pituitary.
Anterior pituitaryhormones are secreted into the secondary capillary plexus.

Anterior Pituitary Hormones
• Growth hormone (GH)
• Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or thyrotropin
• Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
• Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
• Luteinizing hormone (LH)
• Prolactin (PRL)
![Page 32: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Anterior Pituitary Hormones
• All are proteins
• All except GH activate cyclic AMP second-messenger systems at their targets
• TSH, ACTH, FSH, and LH are all _________ hormones (regulate the secretory action of other endocrine glands)
![Page 33: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Growth Hormone (GH)• Stimulates most cells, but primarily targets bone and
skeletal muscle
• Causes protein synthesis and use of fats for fuel
• Most effects are mediated indirectly by insulin-like growth factors (IGFs)
• GH release is regulated by• (GHRH)
• (GHIH)
(AKA: somatostatin)
![Page 34: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Actions of Growth Hormone
• Direct action of GH
• Stimulates liver, skeletal muscle, bone, and cartilage to produce insulin-like growth factors
• Mobilizes fats, elevates blood glucose by decreasing glucose uptake and encouraging glycogen breakdown (anti-insulin effect of GH)
![Page 35: Marieb Chapter 16: The Endocrine System](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061413/56816827550346895dddb872/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (Thyrotropin)
• Regulation of TSH release
• Stimulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)
• Inhibited by rising blood levels of thyroid hormones that act on the pituitary and hypothalamus

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH)
• Secreted by glandular cells of the anterior pituitary
• Stimulates the adrenal cortex to release corticosteroids
