OUTLINE
ENDOCRINOLOGY
Principal Endocrine Organs And Tissues Of The Body
Three General Classes Of Hormones
Transport and Clearance of Hormones in the Blood
The Pituitary Gland
Formation of the Pituitary Gland
Anterior and Posterior Pituitary Gland
Hypothalamic-Hypophyseal Portal Blood Vessels in the
Anterior Pituitary Gland
Major Cell Types of the Anterior Pituitary Gland and Their
Major Functions
Hormones of the Anterior Pituitary Gland
Hormones of the Posterior Pituitary Gland

CLASSES OF HORMONES
1)
2)
3)
PEPTIDES
STEROIDS
AMINO ACID DERIVATIVES
o
Function like steroids
o
Function like peptides
PEPTIDE HORMONES
Water soluble
HYDROPHILIC in nature
When secreted in plasma, it blends well with water
containing blood
SECRETORY PEPTIDES
Exemplefied by:
PITUITARY HORMONES Pituitary Gland
HYPOTHALAMIC HORMONES Hypothalamus
INSULIN AND GLUCAGON Endocrine Pancreas
PTH Parathyroid Hormones
LIPOPHILIC
o
Easily diffuse across cell membrane
o
Exert their effects by binding to receptors found at
the CYTOPLASM or NUCLEUS
o
Needs carrier protein
Precursor
o
CHOLESTEROL most steroid hormones
o
7-dehydrocholesterol vitamin D metabolites
Synthesized in SER
o
THYROID HORMONES in the thyroid gand
Lipid soluble and interact with intracellular nuclear receptors
Biologically active
Will only interact with the receptor once it is liberated from the
transport protein

3OF6
ENDOCRINE
SYSTEM
Regulates the production of adrenocortical
hormones
THYROTROPIN / THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE
(TSH)
Modulates thyroid hormone production in the
thyroid gland
PROLACTIN (PRL)
Promotes development of the mammary glands for
lactation
FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE (FSH)
Promotes the development of oocyte/spermatocyte
LUTEINIZING HORMONE (LH)
Promotes estrogen/testosterone production
VASOPRESSIN
Antidiuretic hormone
Regulates water reabsorption in the collecting
tubules (and the distal parts of the DCT) of the
kidneys
Produce vasoconstriction = vasopressin
OXYTOCIN
Uterine smooth muscle contraction
Milk letdown
MAMMOTROPHS
Hormone: PROLACTIN
FSH
o
Ovarian follicle development and estrogen
secretion in women
o
Spermatogenesis in men
LH
o
Ovarian follicle maturation and progesterone
secretion in women
o
Interstitial cell androgen secretion in mean
THYROTROPHS
Storage,
and
CORTICOTROPHS

ENDOCRINE
SYSTEM
ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE
SECRETION
GHRH stimulates GH synthesis and release
from the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus
SRIF
paraventricular nucleus of hypopthalamus;
inhibits GH secretion
ACTIONS OF GH
LIPOLYSIS
o
Breakdown of stored fats; CATABOLIC
o
Leads to increased circulating fatty acid levels,
reduced omental fat mass, and enhanced lean
body mass
INDUCE
PROTEIN
SYNTHESIS
AND
NITROGEN
RETENTION
STIMULATES
EPIPHYSEAL
PRECHONDROCYTE
DIFFERENTIATION
Aka VASOPRESSIN
Released in response to rising plasma tonicity or falling blood
pressure
Activates two subtypes of G protein coupled receptors:
o
V1 - vascular smooth muscles and mediate
vasoconstriction
o
V2 renal tubule cells; REDUCE DIURESIS
through increased water permeability and water
resorption in the collecting tubules.
Secretion is regulated by the OSMOTIC PRESSURE of Body
Fluids

intra-abdominal visceral fat
o
