THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM Body systems interact through the use of
chemicals: hormones Chemicals produced in glands and secreted
directly into the blood are endocrine hormones; carried by the circulatory system
Hormones are classified according to their activation site
Hormones: (Greek: hormon – to excite, set into motion)
Are produced by glands and sent to the bloodstream
Exert effect somewhere else in the body Are required in small amounts only Act in the metabolic pathway

CHEMICAL CONTROL SYSTEMS
Provide integration and control of organs and tissues along with the nervous system
Nervous system enables quick changes to environment
Endocrine system designed to maintain control over longer durations
The hypothalamus regulates the pituitary- the master gland- through nerve signals, but the pituitary, through other glands, affect the nerve activity of the hypothalamus

TWO TYPES OF HORMONES
Steroid hormones (made from cholesterol (testosterone, estrogen) and Protein hormones
Steroids diffuse from capillaries into interstitial fluid, then into target cellsCombine with receptor molecules in the
cytoplasmHormone-receptor complex then moves
into nucleus and attaches to segment of chromatin with complementary shape
Activates a gene to produce a specific protein

STEROID HORMONES – SEX HORMONES
![Page 10: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
PROTEIN HORMONES – INSULIN, GH
Made up of chains of AA (insulin, GH) Combine with specific receptors on the cell
membrane Some activate the enzyme adenylyl
cyclase which causes cell to convert ATP into cyclic AMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate)
Cyclic AMP functions as a messenger, activating other enzymes in the cytoplasm to carry our normal functions

HORMONES THAT AFFECT BLOOD SUGAR
The Pancreas contains two types of cells Produces digestive
enzymes Produces hormones
– located in structures called the islets of Langerhans Over 2000 islets (each
containing thousands of cells) are scattered throughout pancreas
Islets contain alpha and beta cells which are responsible for the production of insulin and glucagon
![Page 16: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

STORING AND RELEASING GLUCOSE!
Insulin released when blood sugar levels increase insulin causes cells of muscles, liver, and
other organs to become permeable to glucose. Liver converts glucose to glycogen
Insulin causes decreases in blood sugar level Glucagon causes increase in blood sugar
level (released when blood sugar levels are low, promotes conversion of glycogen to glucose.

ADRENAL GLANDS
Located above each kidney Inner gland – adrenal medulla
medulla surrounded by outer casing (adrenal cortex), regulated by the nervous system hormones regulate the adrenal cortex
Adrenal medulla produces two hormones (produced when cells within adrenal medulla are stimulated by sympathetic nerves in times of stressepinephrinenorepinephrine
![Page 20: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

FIGHT OR FLIGHT!!
These two hormones initiate fight-or-flight biological responses
blood sugar level rises glycogen converted to glucose ensures greater energy reserve available increase heart and breathing rates as well as
cell metabolism blood vessels dilate = allowing more oxygen

ADRENAL CORTEX
Produces three different types of hormonesGlucocorticoids
one of the most important - Cortisol, increases level of amino acids in blood and helps in recovery of stress by being converted to glucose in liver, supplying more energy needed for repair or recovery by cells or participating in protein synthesis
Mineralocortiocoids Salt and water balance – ALDOSTERONE!
Sex hormones Small amounts!
![Page 23: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
LONG TERM STRESS RESPONSE
hypothalamus sends hormone to anterior lobe of pituitary
stimulates pituitary to secrete corticotrophin (adrenocorticotropic hormone; ACTH)
blood carries ACTH to target cells in adrenal cortex cells of adrenal cortex secrete mineralocorticoids
and glucocorticoids (one of which is cortisol) these are carried to target cells in liver and
muscles as cortisol levels rise, hypothalamus and pituitary
production of regulatory hormones decreases eventually cortisol levels begin to fall
![Page 24: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
SHORT TERM STRESS RESPONSE
regulated by adrenal medullaepinephrine & norepinephrine
aldosterone is one of most important mineralocorticoids increases sodium retention and water
reabsorption by kidneys

THYROID GLAND
located at base of neck two important thyroid hormones (which
regulate body metabolism, growth, and differentiation of tissues)thyroxine (T4)triiodothyronine (T3)
![Page 28: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
HORMONES THAT AFFECT METABOLISM
Three different glands affect metabolism thyroid gland
helps regulate body metabolism (glucose oxidation rate)
produces three hormones triiodothyronine, thyroxine, calcitonin
parathyroid gland produces parathyroid hormone helps regulate calcium levels in blood and
lower phosphate levels anterior pituitary gland
produces growth hormones and regulatory hormones
![Page 29: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
THYROID GLAND
individuals who secrete higher levels of thyroxine oxidize sugars and other nutrients at a faster rate
When glycogen stores are filled, excess sugar is converted to fat
control of thyroid hormones is accomplished by negative feedback
![Page 30: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
FEEDBACK LOOP... receptors in hypothalamus are activated if the
metabolic rate decreases nerve cells secrete TRH (thyroid releasing
hormone) this stimulates pituitary to release TSH (thyroid
stimulating hormone) carried by blood to thyroid gland which then
releases thyroxine which raises metabolism by stimulating sugar utilization by cells
high levels of thyroxine cause pathway to be turned off, inhibiting release of TRH
thyroxine contains calcitonin hormone acting on bone cells to lower level of
calcium found in blood when inadequate amounts of iodine
![Page 31: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
OH NO!
when inadequate amounts of iodine are obtained from the diet, thyroid enlarges, producing a goiter.

PARATHYROID GLANDS
Four parathyroid glands hidden within larger thyroid gland
Usually nerves or other hormones regulate the endocrine glands with the parathyroid glands being the exceptionThese maintain homeostasis by
responding directly to chemical changes in their immediate surroundings
Raises calcium levels in the blood
PTH (parathyroid hormone) also help activate vitamin D. (Low levels of vit D cause rickets!)

ADJUSTMENTS TO STRESS
When initiator of
stress is identified, endocrine and nervous systems make adjustments enabling body to cope with problem
![Page 38: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
NERVOUS SYSTEM
increases heart ratediverts blood to needed musclesactivates reninangiotensin-aldosterone
pathway in response to reduced blood flow to kidneys by increasing Na+ reabsorption, kidneys help maintain increased fluid volume thus helping to sustain adequate blood pressure during stress.
Activation of hypothalamus causes increased release of antidiurectic hormone ADH which further increases water reabsorption from nephron to help maintain body fluids.

PROSTAGLANDINS
local responses to changes in immediate environment of cells detected by mediator cells
these produce low concentrations of prostaglandins (hormones having pronounced effects in small localized areas) that tend to be absorbed by surrounding tissues (some absorbed by capillaries and carried in blood)
Released during stress and allergic reactions

CHEMICALLY ENHANCED SPORTS PERFORMANCE Anabolic steroids – designed to mimic many of
the muscle-building traits of the sex hormone testosterone
In 1988 Olympic, Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson was disqualified for using Stanozolol
There are a number of health risks linked to extended use of anabolic steroids: prematurely fuse growth plates in long bones
of teens, thereby reducing height potential mood swings (e.g. rage)
There are a myriad of drugs that affect the body sharpshooters use beta blockers that slow the
heartbeat (helps to steady ain and calm jangled nerves)
EPO and HGH are hard to detect b/c they are naturally occuring in the body

FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
females follow complicated sexual cycle one egg matures ~ every month hormone levels fluctuate through
reproductive years ending at menopause
![Page 53: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
OOGENESIS AND OVULATION
ovaries contain fibrous connective tissue and small groups of cells called follicles (two types of cells)primary oocytegranulosa cells
primary oocyte contains 46 chromosomes, undergoes meiosis, transformed to mature oocyte (ovum)
granulosa cells provide nutrients for oocyte each ovary contains ~ 400000 follicles at
puberty, many follicles develop during each reproductive cycle, usually only one becomes dominant and reaches maturity
![Page 54: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

OVULATION
Hormone produced in pituitary controls follicle development
Eventually a dominant follicle pushes outward, ballooning outer wall of ovary
Secondary oocyte releases – ovulation Surrounding follicle cells remain within ovary
and are transformed into corpus luteum, secreting hormones necessary for pregnancy.
Secondary oocyte enters oviduct and begins Meiosis II
![Page 56: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
MENSTRUAL CYCLE Takes about 28 days Divided into four distinct phases
flow phase – shedding of endometrium (menstruation)(Day 1-5)
follicular phase – development of follicles within ovary
- hormone estrogen secreted (day 6-13) ovulatory phase – egg bursts from ovary and follicular
cells differentiate into corpus luteum
luteal phase – development of corpus luteum, secretion of estrogen and progesterone, prepares uterus for embryo and inhibits further ovulation (Day 15-28)
![Page 57: THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM ALL ABOUT YOUR HORMONES!!](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020307/56649f0d5503460f94c218c9/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
HORMONAL CONTROL OF FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Hypothalamus-pituitary complex regulates production of estrogen and progesterone
Gonadotropins Female follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)Luteinizing hormone (LH)
Gonadotropins regulate control of hormones
produced by ovaries Ovarian hormones regulate gonadotropins
via negative feedback mechanisms
