2. AP Biology 2007-2008 Endocrine System Hormones

3. AP Biology Regulation  Why are hormones needed?  chemical messages from one body part to another  communication needed to coordinate whole body  homeostasis & regulation  metabolism  growth  development  maturation  reproduction growth hormones

4. AP Biology Regulation & Communication  Animals rely on 2 systems for regulation  endocrine system  system of ductless glands  secrete chemical signals directly into blood  chemical travels to target tissue  slow, long-lasting response  nervous system  system of neurons  transmits “electrical” signal & release neurotransmitters to target tissue  fast, short-lasting response

5. AP Biology Regulation by chemical messengers axon endocrine gland receptor proteins target cell  Neurotransmitters released by neurons  Hormones release by endocrine glands receptor proteins hormone carried by blood neurotransmitter

6. AP Biology Classes of Hormones  Protein-based hormones  polypeptides  small proteins: insulin, ADH  glycoproteins  large proteins + carbohydrate: FSH, LH  amines  modified amino acids: epinephrine, melatonin  Lipid-based hormones  steroids  modified cholesterol: sex hormones, aldosterone insulin

7. AP Biology How do hormones act on target cells  Lipid-based hormones  hydrophobic & lipid-soluble  diffuse across membrane & enter cells  bind to receptor proteins in cytoplasm & nucleus  bind to DNA as transcription factors  Protein-based hormones  hydrophilic & not lipid soluble  can’t diffuse across membrane  receptor proteins in cell membrane  trigger secondary messenger pathway  activate internal cellular response  enzyme action, uptake or secretion of molecules…

13. AP Biology Maintaining homeostasis high low hormone 1 lowers body condition hormone 2 gland specific body condition raises body condition gland Negative Feedback Model for anterior pituitary

14. AP Biology Controlling Body Temperature high low nerve signals sweat nerve signals brain body temperature shiver brain dilates surface blood vessels constricts surface blood vessels Nervous System Control Feedback

15. AP Biology liver pancreas liver Regulation of Blood Sugar blood sugar level insulin body cells take up sugar from blood liver stores sugar reduces appetite pancreas liver releases sugar triggers hunger high low Feedback Endocrine System Control glucagon

16. AP Biology nephron low Blood Osmolarity blood osmolarity blood pressure ADH increased water reabsorption increase thirst renin increased water & salt reabsorption high Feedback Endocrine System Control pituitary angiotensin nephron (JGA) adrenal gland aldosterone JuxtaGlomerular Apparatus

17. AP Biology Nervous & Endocrine systems linked  Hypothalamus = “master control center”  nervous system  receives information from nerves around body about internal conditions  regulates release of hormones from pituitary  Pituitary gland = “master gland”  endocrine system  secretes broad range of hormones regulating other glands hypothalamus pituitary anterior posterior

18. AP Biology MASTER (gland) and Servant link

19. AP Biology Thyroid gland Hypothalamus anterior pituitary gonadotropic hormones: follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH) & luteinizing hormone (LH) Mammary glands in mammals Muscles of uterus Kidney tubules posterior pituitary thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) antidiuretic hormone (ADH) Adrenal cortex Bone and muscle Testis Ovary Melanocyte in amphibian adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) oxytocin prolactin (PRL) growth hormone (GH)

20. AP Biology Homology in hormones prolactin mammals milk production birds fat metabolism amphibians metamorphosis & maturation fish salt & water balance growth & development What does this tell you about these hormones? growth hormone same gene family gene duplication? How could these hormones have different effects?

21. AP Biology Regulating metabolism  Hypothalamus  TRH = TSH-releasing hormone  Anterior Pituitary  TSH = thyroid stimulating hormone  Thyroid  produces thyroxine hormones  metabolism & development  bone growth  mental development  metabolic use of energy  blood pressure & heart rate  muscle tone  digestion  reproduction tyrosine + iodine thyroxine

22. AP Biology Goiter Iodine deficiency causes thyroid to enlarge as it tries to produce thyroxine

23. AP Biology Regulation of Blood Calcium blood calcium level (10 mg/100mL) calcitonin  Ca ++ uptake in intestines high low Feedback Endocrine System Control  kidney reabsorbs Ca ++ bones release Ca ++  kidney filters Ca ++ Ca ++ deposited in bones activated Vitamin D parathyroid Parathyroid hormone

24. AP Biology corpus luteum ovary Female reproductive cycle pregnancy maintains uterus lining no yes Feedback estrogen egg matures & is released (ovulation) builds up uterus lining FSH & LH progesterone fertilized egg HCG corpus luteum breaks down progesterone drops menstruation maintains uterus lining GnRH hypothalamus

25. AP Biology Disorders of sexual differentiation  Pseudo-hermaphrodites have phenotype opposite gonadal tissue  Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome: female phenotype, XY genotype, has gene for mutated testosterone receptor, becomes default female  5-alpha Reductase Deficiency: born with female phenotype, XY genotype, at puberty more testosterone is produced so finally get high enough levels to begin testes descending and male 2 ۫ sex characteristics.
