Alterations of Hormonal Regulation Chapter 21 1 Elevated or Depressed Hormone Levels Failure of feedback systems Dysfunction of an endocrine gland Secretory cells are unable to produce, obtain, or convert hormone precursors The endocrine gland synthesizes or releases excessive amounts of hormone Increased hormone degradation or inactivation Ectopic hormone release 2 Mosby items and derived items © 2006 by Mosby, Inc. Target Cell Failure Receptor-associated disorders Decrease in number of receptors Impaired receptor function Presence of antibodies against specific receptors Antibodies that mimic hormone action Unusual expression of receptor function 3 Mosby items and derived items © 2006 by Mosby, Inc.
