Chapter 45 Hormones and the Endocrine System
A hormone called ecdysteroid regulates the timing of metamorphosis in this anise swallowtail butterfly.
2
You must know: _______ ways ________________ affect target organs.
The secretion, target, action, and regulation of at least 3 hormones. An illustration of both positive and negative feedback in the regulation of homeostasis by hormones.
3
Types of Intercellular Signaling
WORD BANK: Paracrine Autocrine Synaptic Endocrine Neuroendocrine (new)
4
Endocrine System = Hormone-secreting cells + Tissues
Endocrine glands: ________________, secrete hormones directly into body fluids Hormones: chemical signals that cause a response in _______________________ (receptor proteins for specific hormones) Affects 1 tissue, a few, or most tissues in body Or affect other endocrine glands (tropic hormones) Regulation by ____________________________
5
Pheromones Hormones Local Regulators
Chemical signal from 1 _____________ to another _____________ Chemical signal from endocrine _______ through _______ to target cell Chemical signal from one cell to an ___________ cell Eg. ant trail; sex pheromones Eg. peptide, steroid hormones Eg. cytokines, _____________, nitric oxide (NO)
7
Types of Hormones Peptide Steroid ______________-soluble
Bind to receptors on ____________________& triggers signal transduction pathway Affects protein activity ______________________in cell ______________ response ___________ -lived Eg. oxytocin, insulin, epinephrine ______________ -soluble _________ cell & binds to _____________________ receptors Causes change in ________ ____________________ (protein synthesis) ______________ response ________________ life Eg. androgens (testosterone), estrogen, progesterone, cortisol
9
Epinephrine: ____ hormone _____ effects
Liver cells break down glycogen and release glucose Blood vessels to skeletal muscles dilate Blood vessels to intestines constrict
10
Master Glands
11
Master Glands Hypothalamus Pituitary Gland
________ info from nerves and brain Initiates _______________ signals Hypothalamus Posterior pituitary gland: _____________: contract uterine muscles, eject milk in nursing _________________________: promote H2O retention by kidneys Pituitary Gland Anterior pituitary gland: __________________________________ development of ovarian follicles (eggs); promote sperm production ______________________________trigger ovulation; stimulate testosterone production in testes
12
Hypothalamus regulation of Posterior Pituitary gland
13
Hypothalamus regulation of Anterior Pituitary gland
14
Negative feedback systems:
________________ hormones Blood _________ levels Positive feedback system: ______________ (birthing process; release of milk/suckling)
15
Control of Blood Glucose
High blood glucose Liver breaks down glycogen and releases _________ into blood ____________ released from pancreas Body cells take up glucose Liver stores glucose as _________________ __________ released from pancreas Blood glucose ________
16
Diabetes Mellitus Type I diabetes (10%):deficiency of insulin
__________________-dependent __________________ disorder beta cells of ____________________ destroyed Type II diabetes (90%): failure of ___________________ to respond to insulin Non-insulin dependent Insulin _______________ cells don’t respond (defect in insulin receptor or response pathway) Risk factors: obesity, lack of exercise
17
Thyroid Gland ____________’ Disease: Autoimmune disorder
