COMPARISON OF NERVOUS SYSTEM AND ENDOCRINE SYSTEM 2 Long lasting Lasts a short while Slow acting Fast acting Hormones travel through blood to their target Direct cell to cell communication Produceshormones Produces neurotransmitters Endocrine System Nervous System

GENERAL THINGS TO KNOW  Endocrine = Hormone System  Hormones are chemicals produced in minute amounts  All hormones in body together weigh less than 5 ounces. 3

GENERAL THINGS TO KNOW  Control the slow processes in our bodies  Rate of growth  Metabolism  Development before birth  Pregnancy, birth process, lactation  Initiation of puberty & sexual maturity  Storing & breakdown of food  Maintaining water & mineral levels 4

GENERAL THINGS TO KNOW  Hormones are chemical messengers  Produced in a gland  Travel through the blood stream  Act on a “target” cell.  Hormones are created in glands called ENDOCRINE glands (“ductless glands”)  Because the glands secrete into the blood stream, not into a body cavity (exocrine). 5

TYPES OF HORMONES 1. Local Hormones Not typical hormones Act immediately on area near secretion Action is local and rapid Example = histamines  Released by tissues when affected by a foreign substance… pollen…  Increases blood flow and fluid leaks into tissues  Inflammation, redness, swelling 6

TYPES OF HORMONES 2. Circulating Hormones Typical Produced by endocrine glands Travel through blood To target cell Combine with receptor on or in the target cell  Receptor site is either on the membrane or in cytoplasm  Initiates a change in the target cell 7

CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF HORMONES We are concerned with 2 types 1. Protein or Peptide Hormones Made up of peptide chains or long proteins Water soluble / lipid insoluble Cannot cross phospholipid bilayer Includes hormones from 1. Hypothalamus 2. Pituitary 3. Pancreas 8

2. Steroid Hormones Chemically related to cholesterol Water insoluble / lipid soluble Can pass right through the cell membrane Includes  Sex hormones  Thyroxin  Hormones from the adrenal cortex 9 Chemical Structure of Hormones

NOW THAT YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE… Let’s find out how and when they are produced and how the system can be shut off when things are fine.

HORMONES & FEEDBACK  Hormone levels are regulated through a process called negative feedback  When the brain detects an inappropriate level of a certain hormone, it will do things to fix the problem.  When the problem is solved, the brain stops trying to fix it.  Let’s look at an example. 115

HORMONES & FEEDBACK  When insufficient levels of thyroxin in body… 1. the pituitary releases TSH 2. Thyroid then produces Thyroxin 3. Soon thyroxin levels are high enough for pituitary to stop releasing TSH. 4. As a result, thyroxin release stops. 116
