3 reflex mechanisms that stimulate hormone secretion - (answer)1.Hormonal

Stimulation: stimulus for release of hormones by the binding of another hormone

(eg the TSH from anterior pituitary binds to thyroid gland to release TH)

2.Humoral Stimulation: release of hormone in response to change of blood nutrient

levels (eg blood glucose levels rise so insulin is released from pancreas, or fall and

glucagon is released)

3.Neural Stimulation: direct stimulation from nervous system to endocrine gland

(eg epinephrine and norepinephrine by adrenal medulla during fight or flight)




Hormonal Stimulation - (answer)Stimulus for release of hormones by the binding

of another hormone (eg the TSH from anterior pituitary binds to thyroid gland to

release TH)

,Humoral Stimulation - (answer)release of hormone in response to change of blood

nutrient levels (eg blood glucose levels rise so insulin is released from pancreas, or

fall and glucagon is released)




Neural Stimulation - (answer)direct stimulation from nervous system to endocrine

gland (eg epinephrine and norepinephrine by adrenal medulla during fight or

flight)




Steroids - (answer)lipid soluble molecules synthesized by cholesterol

1. Gonads (Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone)

2. Adrenal Cortex hormones (Corticosteroids like cortisol, mineralocorticoids,

aldosterone)




Biogenic Amines - (answer)modified amino acids, water soluble (except thyroid)

1. Catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine)

2. Thyroid Hormone → lipid soluble

3. Melatonin

, Proteins - (answer)most hormones, small chains of amino acids, water soluble

1. Small peptides and large polypeptides

2. Glycoproteins




Local Hormones - (answer)DO NOT circulate in blood, so only affect either same

cell that produced them (autocrine) or neighboring cells (Paracrine)

1. Eicosanoids: synthesized through enzymatic cascade, Phospholipase A2

removes fatty acid from phospholipid within the plasma membrane

--> prostaglandins




Prostaglandins - (answer)-Famous eicosanoid

-are diverse group: synthesized by most tissues in the body

-Stimulate pain receptors, reduce fever, increase inflammatory response




Lipid soluble hormones: - (answer)Can cross membrane, but needs carrier protein

while circulating in blood, once unbound they can enter the nucleus
