Endocrine System (Endocrine glands (Anterior pituitary (Growth hormone…

- - - - secretes glucocorticoids
      - Maintain blood glucose levels "stress hormone"
    - - secretes glucocorticoids and androgen ---> converted in other tissues to testasterone and estrogen
    - - Secrete mineralocorticoids
      - Kidneys release sodium and water
  - - - Increases blood calcium when it's low
  - - - Alpha
        
        Secrete glucogun ----> increase blood glucose level
      - Beta
        
        Secrete insulin ----> decrease blood glucose level
  - - - Active only in children
      - Decrease osteoclast activity
    - - Increases metabolic rate
      - Nutrients --(O2)--> energy
  - - - Secrete estrogen and progesterone
    - - Secrete testasterone
  - - - Stimulates adreno cortex to release hormone
    - - Stimulates glands to release hormone
    - - Stimulate thyroid to release hormone
    - - Stimulates mammary glands to produce milk
    - - Stimulates growth of all cells
      - Stimulates growth of epiphyseal plate
  - - - Causes T lymphocytes to become immunocompitent
- - - - Placenta
      - Kidneys
      - G.I Tract
      - Skin
      - pancreas
      - Glands
      - Hypothalamus
      - Heart
    - - when a hormone gets out of the cell it travels to the blood stream, then there are receptors and the ones that have the same shape as the hormone is the target cell
    - - pineal
      - thyroid
      - anterior pituitary
      - parathyroid
      - adrenal
    - - chemical messanager that travels through blood
  - - - Nervous system
        
        Muscle (smooth, skeletal, cardiac)
        
        Glands
      - Endocrine system
        
        Target cells (various locations)
    - - Nervous system
        
        milliseconds
      - Endocrine system
        
        seconds to hours to days
    - - Nervous system
        
        Local-synapse
        
        binds to receptor in effector cell membrane
      - Endocrine system
        
        near by or far -target cells-
    - - Nervous system
        
        milliseconds
      - Endocrine system
        
        seconds to days
    - - Nervous system
        
        nerotransmitters
      - Endocrine system
        
        hormones
  - - - Ductless glands
      - secrete hormones into blood
    - - excrete onto body surfaces or body cavities
      - glands have ducts
- - - - Oxytocin (pitocin)
        
        Stimulates contraction of uterus
      - Antidiuretic hormone/Vassopressin
        
        Causes kidney to conserve water
