Calcitonin

The adrenal glands have 2 parts

Medulla & Cortex

Endocrine system
Endocrine cells and tissues produce about 30 differenthormones (chemical messengers)


Controls and coordinates body processes

What 4 mechanisms of inter cellular communication is there?

Direct communication


Paracrine communication


Autocrine communication


Endocrine communication

Direct Communication

Exchange of ions and molecules between adjacentcells across gap junctions




Occurs between two cells of the same type




Highly specialized and relatively rare

Paracrine Communication

Chemical signals transfer information from cell tocell within a single tissue

Autocrine Communication

Messages affect the same cells that secrete them

Examples: Prostaglandins secreted by smooth muscle cells cause the same cells to contact

Endocrine Communication

Endocrine cells release chemicals (hormones) thatare transported in bloodstream




Alters metabolic activities of many organs

Target Cells

Have receptors needed to bind and "read" hormonal messages

Hormones

Change types, quantities, or activities of enzymes and structural proteins in target cells

Synaptic Communication

Neurons release neurotransmitters at a synapse




Leads to action potentials that are propagated alongaxons




Allows for high-speed “messages” to reach specificdestinations




Ideal for crisis management

True or False




Both endocrine and nervous systems rely on release of certain chemicals that bind specific receptors to target cells?

True

True or False




Both endocrine and nervous systems share many chemicals EX: nonrepinephrine & epinephrine

True

True or False




Both endocrine and nervous systems are regulated by negative feedback

True

True or False




Both endocrine and nervous systems functions are to regulate and coordinate the body to preserve homeostasis

True

True or False




Endocrine organs are scattered throughout the body?


True

True or False




Endocrine cells release secretions into extracellular fluid

True

Unlike exocrine cells

Pineal Gland

Melatonin

What hormone ?

Parathyroid Glands

(PTH)


Parathyroid hormone

Hormone that is located on the posterior surfaces of the thyroid gland

Medulla has 2 hormones what are they

Epinephrine (E)




Norepinephrine (NE)

Cortex has 5 hormones what are they

Cortisol, corticosterone, cortisone, aldosterone, androgens

Heart

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
