Manipulation of the Endocrine System
• Hormones can be used to regulate body functions»growth (anabolic steroids)
» lactation (GH or STH)
»birth control (Estradiol, Progesterone)
»estrous cycle (PGF2)
»superovulation and embryo transplant (FSH,eCG)
»parturition (oxytocin)

Endocrine Gland
• A ductless gland• Secretes substances (hormones) into
blood or lymph that affect cells elsewhere in the body
• The secretion does not involve loss of tissue
![Page 7: Animal Science 434 Reproductive Physiology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681593c550346895dc67a7b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Exocrine Gland
• A gland with ducts that are used for secretion
![Page 8: Animal Science 434 Reproductive Physiology](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081503/5681593c550346895dc67a7b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Hormone
• Substance produced by endocrine gland
• Acts on cells, tissues or organs at a place other than where produced
• Acts as a catalyst.
