3 13.1: Introduction The endocrine system assists the nervous system with communication and control of the body The cells, tissues, and organs are called endocrine glands They are ductless They use the bloodstream They secrete hormones There are also similar glands called paracrine and autocrine glands that are quasi-endocrine Other glands that secrete substances are the exocrine glands They have ducts They deliver their products directly to a specific site 3

5 13.2: General Characteristics of the Endocrine System
The endocrine and nervous systems communicate using chemical signals Neurons release neurotransmitters into a synapse affecting postsynaptic cells Endocrine glands release hormones into the bloodstream to specific target cell receptors 5

13.1 Clinical Application Using Hormones to Improve Athletic Performance 15

16 Prostaglandins Prostaglandins: Are paracrine substances
Are very potent in small amounts Are not stored in cells but synthesized just before release Rapidly inactivate Regulate cellular responses to hormones Can activate or inhibit adenylate cyclase Controls cAMP production Alters a cells response to hormones Has a wide variety of effects 16

17 13.4: Control of Hormonal Secretions
Primarily controlled by negative feedback mechanism Hormones can be short-lived or may last for days Hormone secretions are precisely regulated 17

43 13.9: Pancreas The pancreas has two major types of secretory tissue
This is why it is a dual functioning organ as both an exocrine gland and endocrine gland Three hormones are secreted from the islet cells: Alpha cells secrete glucagon Beta cells insulin Delta cells secrete somatostatin 43

Control center Beta cells secrete insulin Effectors Insulin • Promotes movement of glucose into certain cells • Stimulates formation of glycogen from glucose Receptors Beta cells detect a rise in blood glucose Stimulus Rise in blood glucose Response Blood glucose drops toward normal (and inhibits insulin secretion) too high Normal blood glucose concentration too low Response Blood glucose rises toward normal (and inhibits glucagon secretion) Stimulus Drop in blood glucose Receptors Alpha cells detect a drop in blood glucose Effectors Glucagon • Stimulates cells to break down glycogen into glucose • Stimulates cells to convert noncarbohydrates into glucose Control center Alpha cells secrete glucagon 46

47 13.4 Clinical Application Diabetes Mellitus 47

48 13.10: Other Endocrine Glands
Pineal Gland Secretes melatonin Regulates circadian rhythms Thymus Gland Secretes thymosins Promotes development of certain lymphocytes Important in role of immunity Reproductive Organs Ovaries produce estrogens and progesterone Testes produce testosterone Placenta produces estrogens, progesterone, and gonadotropin Other organs: digestive glands, heart, and kidney 48

49 13.11: Stress and Its Effects
Survival depends on maintaining homeostasis Factors that change the internal environment are potentially life-threatening Sensing such dangers directs nerve impulses to the hypothalamus This can trigger a loss of homeostasis 49

50 Types of Stress Two types of stress: Physical stress
Psychological stress 50

51 Responses to Stress 51 Stress results from changes
Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Stress results from changes in the external environment Hormonal signals Neural signals Signals from sensory receptors Sympathetic impulses Hypothalamus CRH released Adrenal medulla Anterior pituitary Epinephrine and norepinephrine released Norepinephrine released ACTH released Adrenal cortex Short-term “fight or flight” or alarm stage. Cortisol released • Blood glucose increases. • Blood glycerol and fatty acids increase. Long-term adjustment or resistance stage • Heart rate increases. • Blood pressure rises. • Increase in blood concentration of amino acids. • Breathing rate increases. • Increased release of fatty acids. Air passages dilate. • Increased glucose formed from noncarbohydrates—amino acids (from proteins) and glycerol (from fats). 51 • Pupils dilate. • Blood flow redistributes.

53 13.12: Lifespan Changes Endocrine glands decrease in size
Muscular strength decreases as GH levels decrease ADH levels increase due to slower break down in liver and kidneys Calcitonin levels decrease; increase risk of osteoporosis PTH level changes contribute to risk of osteoporosis Insulin resistance may develop Changes in melatonin secretion affect the body clock Thymosin production declines increasing risk of infections 53

54 Important Points in Chapter 13: Outcomes to be Assessed
13.1: Introduction Define hormone. Distinguish between endocrine and exocrine glands. 13.2: General Characteristics of the Endocrine System Explain what makes a cell a target cell for a hormone. List some important functions of hormones. 13.3: Hormone Action Describe how hormones can be classified according to their chemical composition. Explain how steroid and non-steroid hormones affect their target cells. 54

55 Important Points in Chapter 13: Outcomes to be Assessed
13.4: Control of Hormone Secretion Discuss how negative feedback mechanisms regulate hormone secretion. Explain how the nervous system controls hormone secretion. : Pituitary Gland – Other Endocrine Glands Name and describe the locations of the major endocrine glands and list the hormones that they secrete. Describe the actions of the various hormones and their contributions to homeostasis. Explain how the secretion of each hormone is regulated. 55

56 Important Points in Chapter 13: Outcomes to be Assessed
13.11: Stress and Its Effects Distinguish between physical and psychological stress. Describe the general stress response. 13.12: Lifespan Changes Describe some of the changes associated with aging of the endocrine system. 56
