Classification of hormones by chemical structure
![Page 5: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Steroid hormones Derived from
cholesterol Lipid-soluble Pass through plasma
membranes easily
![Page 6: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Nonsteroid hormones Synthesized primarily from amino acids Protein hormones: long chains of amino acids ex:
insulin, PTH Glycoproteins: protein hormones with a
carbohydrate group attached ex: FSH, LH Peptide hormones: short chain of amino acids ex:
oxytocin, ADH Amino acid derivatives: derived from a single
amino acid Amine hormones: derived from tyrosine ex:epinephrine Iodine added to tyrosine ex: thyroid hormones
![Page 7: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
General Principles of Hormone Action Bind to a specific receptor on cell by “lock-
and-key” mechanism Some hormones are attached to plasma
proteins in bloodstream Since blood carries hormones most
everywhere lots more produced than makes it to its target
![Page 8: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Mechanism of steroid hormone action (Mobile-receptor hypothesis)
Attach to soluble plasma proteins in blood
Receptors usually found within the cell
Regulate cells by regulating production of certain critical proteins
Amount of steroid hormone present determines magnitude of target cell’s response
Response to steroid hormones often slow
![Page 9: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Mechanisms of Nonsteroid Hormones Second messenger mechanism: also called
fixed-membrane-receptor hypothesis
Nuclear receptor mechanism
![Page 10: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Second messenger mechanism Binds to receptors on
target cell’s plasma membrane
Then second messenger within cell triggers appropriate cellular changes
Most use cAMP as second messenger
Operates more quickly than steroid mechanism
![Page 11: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Nuclear receptor mechanism Small iodinated amino acids (T3 & T4) Enter target cell & bind to receptors
associated with DNA which triggers transcription of mRNA
![Page 12: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Regulation of hormone secretion Usually part of a negative feedback loop
and is called endocrine reflexes Endocrine cells often sensitive to changes
produced by its target cells May be regulated by hormone produced
by another gland, esp pituitary gland May be influenced by nervous system
input
![Page 13: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Prostaglandins Lipid molecules Tissue hormones: secretion produced in
tissues & diffuse short distance only to other cells in same tissue
Tissues known to secrete prostaglandins: kidneys, lungs, iris, brain, thymus

Pituitary gland (Hypophysis) Lies within sella
turcica of skull Connected to the
hypothalamus by a stalk, infundibulum
Consists of 2 different glands Adenohypohysis or
anterior pituitary Neurohypophysis or
posterior pituitary
![Page 17: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Anterior Pituitary Two parts
pars anterior: major part pars intermedia
5 types of secretions Somatrophs-secrete GH Corticotrophs-secrete ACTH Thyrotrophs: secrete TSH Lactotrophs: secrete prolactin Gondatrophs: secrete LH and FSH
![Page 18: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Growth Hormone (GH) Promotes protein anabolism thus
promotes growth of bones, muscles Promotes lipid mobilization & catabolism Indirectly inhibits glucose metabolism Indirectly increases blood glucose levels
![Page 19: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Prolactin (PRL) During pregnancy promotes breast
development After birth stimulates mammary gland to
begin milk secretion
![Page 20: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Tropic hormones Have stimulating effect on other endocrine
glands
Thyroid stimulating hormone: TSH Adrenocorticotropic hormone: ACTH Follicle stimulating hormone: FSH Luteinizing hormone: LH
![Page 21: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
TSH Maintains growth & development of
thyroid gland & causes it to secrete its hormones
![Page 22: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

cortex of adrenal gland & stimulates it to secrete some of its hormones
![Page 23: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Gonadotropins Stimulate growth & development of
gonads FSH: stimulates follicles (with ovum) to
maturity, also stimulates follicle to secrete estrogen; in male: stimulates development of seminiferous tubules
LH: stimulates formation of corpus luteum; in males: stimulates interstitial cells in testes to develop & secrete testosterone
![Page 24: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Control of secretion of anterior pituitary
Hypophyseal portal system: complex of small blood vessels between hypothalamus & anterior pituitary
Hypothalamus secretes releasing hormones through this system
During times of stress cerebral cortex can send impulses to hypothalamus to secrete releasing hormones thus mind-body link
![Page 25: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Posterior pituitary Storage & release site
for: ADH (antidiuretic
hormone) Oxytocin
Hormones are not made within the pituitary but within the supraoptic or paraventricular nuclei of hypothalamus
Release of these hormones thus controlled by nervous stimulation
![Page 26: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Antidiuretic hormone Prevents formation of a large volume of
urine Release triggered by osmoreceptors near
supraoptic nucleus
![Page 27: Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 16 Endocrine System](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081417/56649cad5503460f9496eee2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Heart Atrial natriuretic hormone (ANH):
promotes loss of sodium in urine thus it opposes increase in blood volume or blood pressure
Antagonistic to ADH & aldosterone
