Definition Hormon
Hormones (from the Greek: horman - "who move")
are chemical messengers between cells or between
cells. All multicellular organisms, including plants,
produce hormones.
Hormone: the active substance produced by the
endocrine glands, which enter the bloodstream to
specifically affect the target tissue (organs).
eg: anterior hypophysis, FSH, ovaries.
Function of hormon :
HOMEOSTASIS
General Characteristics of
Hormones
Not secreted at a uniform rate
Exert their effects in biocatalytic amounts
Turnover is varied and usually rapid
Exert multiple actions
Exhibit high degree of specifity
Different tissues may respond differently to
a given hormone
Regulation of Hormone Secretion
A. Feedback Control
• Negative feedback : is the most common
mechanism in the regulation of hormone
secretion.
Hormones can also directly or indirectly
affect its own secretion through the
mechanism of down regulation.
• Positive feedbaack : very rare
NEGATIVE FEEDBECK MECHANISM
Hipotalamus
IH RH
Adenohipofisis
_ Tropic Hormone +
Target Gland
Estrogen LH
B. Neural Control
• Visual / olfactory / gustatory
C. Chronotopic Control
• Sleep-wake cycle / physiologic cycle
Forms of hormones in the circulation
a. Hipofisis Posterior
1. Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH)
2. Oxcytocin
b. Hipofisis Anterior
1. Growth Hormone (GH)
2. Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH,
Adrenocorticotropin)
3. Tyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH, Thyrotropin)
4. Prolactin (LTH = Luteotropic Hormone)
5. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
6. Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Gonadotropic Hormone
