Warm Up 2/14/11 Announcements: • Pick up a new warm up sheet from the counter • Warm ups due THIS Friday • End of six weeks THIS Friday • Make up testing TODAY after school Warm Up: 1. What is homeostasis? 2. What is the chemical messenger released by neurons which act on a target cell? 3. What is anabolism? 4. Differentiate between exocrine and endocrine glands. Endocrine System Chapter 16 Overview • Overall goal of endocrine system: maintain a stable internal environment (homeostasis) • Endocrine glands are “ductless glands” • Endocrine glands secrete hormones which travel through the blood to a target cell – Receptor must be present on target cell • Glands of the endocrine system are present throughout the body • Most cells are regulated by the endocrine system Endocrine vs Nervous System • Both systems function to maintain homeostasis • Main differences: Feature Endocrine System Nervous System Effector cells Target cells throughout the body Postsynaptic cells in muscle and glandular tissue only Chemical messenger Hormone Neurotransmitter Distance traveled by messenger Long – in blood Short – across synaptic cleft Regulatory effects Slow to appear; long-lasting Appear rapidly; short Endocrine vs Nervous System Major Endocrine Glands Classification of Hormones • Classified by Function – Tropic hormones: target other endocrine glands and stimulate their growth & secretion – Sex hormones: target reproductive tissues – Anabolic hormones: stimulate anabolism in their target cell Classification of Hormones • Classified by Chemical Structure – Steroid Hormones • Derived from cholesterol • Lipid soluble; can pass through phospholipid bilayer – Nonsteriod Hormones • Synthesized from amino acids • Proteins, Glycoproteins, peptides, amino acid derivatives (Fig 16-3) Chemical Classifications of Hormones Warm Up 2/15/11 Announcements: 1. Make up testing today after school (room 2212) 2. Extra credit due this Friday Warm Up: 1. What is the overall goal of the endocrine system? 2. What is the chemical messenger released by the endocrine system? 3. Describe the regulatory effects of the endocrine system? 4. What are the two ways hormones can be classified? 5. What is the main difference between steroids and nonsteroids? 6. True/False: Cells can be targets for multiple hormones. How Hormones Work • Hormones bind to receptors on target cells – Lock & key • Hormone-receptor interactions produce regulatory changes within the target cell – Ex: initiating protein synthesis; activation/inactivation of enzymes; opening/closing of ion channels • Endocrine glands produce more hormone molecules than necessary to hit the target cells – Excess hormones are excreted in urine or broken down by metabolic processes How Hormones Work • Synergism: combinations of hormones have a greater effect on the target cell compared to a single hormone acting alone • Permissiveness: a small amount of one hormone allows a second hormone to exhibit its full effect on the target cell • Antagonism: two hormones produce opposite effects Mechanisms of Steroid Hormone Action • Steroids are lipids not soluble in blood plasma (mostly H2O) • In blood steroids attach to plasma proteins • Steroid reaches a target cell dissociates from plasma protein diffuses into target cell • In the nucleus a hormone-receptor complex is formed • Hormone-receptor complexes in the nucleus trigger protein synthesis (transcription & translation) • Increase steroid = increase response (protein synthesis) • Regulatory effects of hormones are slow to appear Mechanisms of Steroid Hormone Action Mechanisms of Nonsteriod Hormone Action • Nonsteroid hormones operate according to the second messenger hypothesis – Nonsteroid hormone is the “1st messenger” and binds to a receptor on the plasma membrane of the target cell – The “message” is relayed inside the cell to a “2nd messenger” which triggers the appropriate cellular response Second Messenger Mechanism 1. 2. 3. Nonsteroid hormone (1st messenger) binds with receptor on plasma membrane Hormone-receptor complex activates a membrane protein called the G protein G protein activates guanosine triphosphate (GTP) which also activates another membrane protein (adenyl cyclase) Second Messenger Mechanism 4. 5. 6. Adenyl cyclase removes 2 phosphate groups from ATP creating cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (second mesenger) cAMP activates or inactivates protein kinases Protein kinases activate specific intracellular enzymes Second Messenger Mechanism 7. Enzymes influence specific cellular reactions (target cell’s response to hormone) Second Messenger Mechanism Summary: • Hormone or 1st messenger binds to plasma membrane receptor • Triggers formation of intracellular 2nd messenger • 2nd messenger activates cascade of chemical reactions • Target cell’s response to the hormone is produced Another Second Messenger • Some hormones produce effects in target cells by triggering opening of calcium channels – – – – – – Hormone binds to receptor on plasma membrane Ca2+ channels open Ca2+ binds with calmodulin Ca2+/Calmodulin complex acts as 2nd messenger Enzymes are activated/inactivated Target cell’s response is produced Calcium-Calmodulin as 2nd Messenger Regulation of Hormone Secretion • Hormone secretion is controlled by a negative feedback loop – Ex: parathyroid hormone (PTH) and blood calcium levels (fig 16-10) – Ex: insulin and blood glucose levels Endocrine Feedback Loop Hyper vs Hyposecretion • Tumors or abnormalities of the endocrine glands cause secretion of too much or too little hormone • Hypersecretion: production of too much hormone • Hyposecretion: production of too little hormone – Results in lack of target cell response – Also caused by target cell insensitivity Regulation of Target Cell Sensitivity • Sensitivity of target cell depends on number of receptors it has for a specific hormone • Receptors are constantly begin broken down and re-synthesized by the cell • Up-regulation: synthesis of new receptors > degeneration of old receptors – Increase target cell sensitivity to that particular hormone • Down-regulation: synthesis of new receptors < degeneration of old receptors – Decrease target cell sensitivity Prostaglandins • Group of lipid molecules that play an important role in the body but to not classify as hormones • Structure: 20-carbon unsaturated fatty acid with a 5 carbon ring Prostaglandins • Secreted into the bloodstream • Metabolize quickly; circulating levels remain low • Prostaglandins are produced in certain tissues and travel to other cells within the same tissue • Tissues that secrete prostaglandins: – Kidneys, lungs, brain, thymus, seminal vesicles Warm Up 2/16-2/17/11 Announcements 1.

Parathyroid Glands • Parathyroid glands are embedded in the posterior aspect of the thyroid glands • Usually 4 or 5 parathyroid glands Parathyroid Hormone • Secreted from Parathyroid glands • Target cells: bone and kidney • Action: maintains calcium homeostasis – Increases osteoclast activity; decrease osteoblast activity – Calcium absorbed in kidneys and returned to the bloodstream – Activates vitamin D in the kidneys which increases intestinal absorption of calcium • Parathyroid hormone is an antagonist to calcitonin Adrenal Glands • Located on top of both of the kidneys • Composed of two parts: – Outer portion adrenal cortex – Inner portion adrenal medulla • Both parts of the adrenal glands are structurally and functionally different; often treated as two different glands Adrenal Cortex • Composed of three distinct layers or zones – Outer zone secrete mineralocorticoids – Middle zone secrete glucocorticoids – Inner zone secrete glucocorticoids and gonadocorticoids Mineralocorticoids • Mineralocorticoids – regulate electrolytes in the body • In humans the most important mineralcorticoid is aldosterone • Target cell – kidneys • Function – maintaining sodium homeostasis in the blood – In the kidneys, sodium ions are reabsorbed from the urine back to the blood – Sodium ions are exchanged for potassium or hydrogen ions – Aldoesterone also promotes water retention because reabsorption of sodium ions also causes water to be reabsorbed Regulation of Aldosterone Secretion • • Aldosterone secretion is controlled by the reninangiotensin mechanism This mechanism is a negative feedback loop that helps maintain homeostasis of blood pressure 1. Blood pressure drops in the kidneys renin (an enzyme) is secreted 2. Renin converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I 3. Angiotensin I travels to the lungs where enzymes split the molecule forming angiotensin II 4. Angiotensin II travels to the kidneys where it simulates the secretion of aldosterone 5. Aldosterone causes reabsorption of sodium ions followed by water reabsorption increase in blood pressure Glucocorticoids • Main glucocorticoid secreted from the adrenal cortex is cortisol (also hydrocortisone) • Target cells – general; affect every cell in the body Cortisol - Functions • Accelerate protein breakdown into amino acids – Amino acids travel to liver and are converted to glucose (gluconeogenesis) – Increased glucocorticoids (cortisol) increased breakdown of proteins in tissue (tissue wasting) hyperglycemia • Shift cells from carbohydrate catabolism to lipid catabolism for energy sources – Further causes hyperglycemia Cortisol – Functions cont… • Help maintain blood pressure – Permissiveness relationship with epinephrine and norepinephrine – Epi and NE cause vasoconstriction of blood vessels • Suppression of immune system responses Gonadocorticoids • The adrenal cortex secretes small amounts of male hormones (androgens) • Secretes in males and females • Causes appearance of pubic and axillary hair in males and females Glucocorticoid Hypersecretion • Cushing Syndrome – Too much cortisol is being secreted – Causes: • Could be caused by hypersecretion of ACTH from anterior pituitary (tumor) • Cirrhosis of liver or liver failure can’t breakdown hormones – Signs/Symptoms: • • • • • • • Abnormal hair growth buffalo hump muscle wasting skin breakdown (thin skin) striae across abdomen and thighs truncal obesity Susceptible to infection Adrenal Insufficiency • Hyposecretion of mineralcorticoids & glucocorticoids Addison Disease • Signs/Symptoms: – Drop in blood sodium – Hypoglycemia – Increase in blood potassium – Dehydration – Weight loss Adrenal Medulla • Secretes two nonsteroids in the catecholamine class – Epinephrine and norepinephrine – Bind to sympathetic effectors and enhance the effects of the “fight or flight” response of the autonomic nervous system Warm Up Announcements: 1.
