Endocrine systemFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The endocrine system is the system of glands, each of which secretes different types of hormones directly into
the bloodstream (some of which are transported along nerve tracts[citation needed]) to maintain homeostasis.The endocrine system is in contrast to the exocrine system, which secretes its chemicals using ducts. The wordendocrine derives from the Greek words "endo" meaning inside, within, and "crinis" for secrete. The endocrinesystem is an information signal system like the nervous system, yet its effects and mechanism are classifiablydifferent. The endocrine system's effects are slow to initiate, and prolonged in their response, lasting from a fewhours up to weeks. The nervous system sends information very quickly, and responses are generally short lived.Hormones are substances (chemical mediators) released from endocrine tissue into the bloodstream where theytravel to target tissue and generate a response. Hormones regulate various human functions, includingmetabolism, growth and development, tissue function, sleep, and mood. The field of study dealing with theendocrine system and its disorders is endocrinology, a branch of internal medicine.
Features of endocrine glands are, in general, their ductless nature, their vascularity, and usually the presence ofintracellular vacuoles or granules storing their hormones. In contrast, exocrine glands, such as salivary glands,sweat glands, and glands within the gastrointestinal tract, tend to be much less vascular and have ducts or ahollow lumen.
In addition to the specialised endocrine organs mentioned above, many other organs that are part of other bodysystems, such as the kidney, liver, heart and gonads, have secondary endocrine functions. For example thekidney secretes endocrine hormones such as erythropoietin and renin.
The endocrine system is made of a series of glands that produce chemicals called hormones. A number ofglands that signal each other in sequence are usually referred to as an axis, for example, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
As opposed to endocrine factors that travel considerably longer distances via the circulatory system, othersignaling molecules, such as paracrine factors involved in paracrine signalling diffuse over a relatively shortdistance.

Pituitary gland (hypophysis)
The pituitary gland (or hypophysis) is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea and weighing 5 grams (0.18 oz)in humans. It is a protrusion off the bottom of the hypothalamus at the base of the brain, and rests in a small,bony cavity (sella turcica) covered by a dural fold (diaphragma sellae). The pituitary is functionally connected tothe hypothalamus by the median eminence via a small tube called the infundibular stem or pituitary stalk. Thepituitary fossa, in which the pituitary gland sits, is situated in the sphenoid bone in the middle cranial fossa at thebase of the brain. The pituitary gland secretes nine hormones that regulate homeostasis and the secretion of
other hormones.[citation needed]

Main article: Diffuse neuro-endocrine system
The Diffuse Neuro-Endocrine System (DNES) comprises hormone-secreted cells, that have commonalities withneurons and are found in the Epithelium of organs of the body.
Major endocrine systems
The human endocrine system consists of several systems that operate via feedback loops. Several important
feedback systems are mediated via the hypothalamus and pituitary.[12]
TRH - TSH - T3/T4GnRH - LH/FSH - sex hormones
CRH - ACTH - cortisolRenin - angiotensin - aldosterone

Interaction with immune system

Extensive bidirectional interactions exist between the endocrine system and the immune system.[13] Cortisol has
major immunosuppressive effects,[14][15] and dopamine has immunomodulatory functions.[16] On the other hand,cytokines produced during inflammation activate the HPA axis at all three levels, sensible to negative
feedback.[17] Moreover cytokines stimulate hepcidin release from the liver, which is eventually responsible for
the anemia of chronic disease.[18]
In other species
A neuroendocrine system has been observed in all animals with a nervous system and all vertebrates have an
hypothalamus-pituitary axis.[19] All vertebrates have a thyroid, which in amphibians is also crucial for
transformation of larvae into adult form.[20][21] All vertebrates have adrenal gland tissue, with mammals unique in
having it organized into layers.[22] All vertebrates have some form of renin-angiotensin axis, and all tetrapods
have aldosterone as primary mineralocorticoid.[23][24]
Diseases
Main article: Endocrine diseases
Diseases of the endocrine system are common,[26] includingconditions such as diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease, and obesity.Endocrine disease is characterized by disregulated hormone release (aproductive pituitary adenoma), inappropriate response to signaling(hypothyroidism), lack of a gland (diabetes mellitus type 1, diminishederythropoiesis in chronic renal failure), or structural enlargement in acritical site such as the thyroid (toxic multinodular goitre).Hypofunction of endocrine glands can occur as a result of loss ofreserve, hyposecretion, agenesis, atrophy, or active destruction.Hyperfunction can occur as a result of hypersecretion, loss ofsuppression, hyperplastic or neoplastic change, or hyperstimulation.
Endocrinopathies are classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary.Primary endocrine disease inhibits the action of downstream glands.Secondary endocrine disease is indicative of a problem with thepituitary gland. Tertiary endocrine disease is associated withdysfunction of the hypothalamus and its releasing
hormones.[citation needed]
As the thyroid, and hormones have been implicated in signaling distanttissues to proliferate, for example, the estrogen receptor has beenshown to be involved in certain breast cancers. Endocrine, paracrine,and autocrine signaling have all been implicated in proliferation, one of
the required steps of oncogenesis.[27]
Other types of signaling
The typical mode of cell signaling in the endocrine system is endocrine signaling. However, there are also other
modes, i.e., paracrine, autocrine, and neuroendocrine signaling.[28] Purely neurocrine signaling between neurons,on the other hand, belongs completely to the nervous system.
2/7/2556 Endocrine system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocrine_system 18/20
Autocrine
Main article: Autocrine signalling
Autocrine signaling is a form of signaling in which a cell secretes a hormone or chemical messenger (called theautocrine agent) that binds to autocrine receptors on the same cell, leading to changes in the cells.
Paracrine
Main article: Paracrine signalling
Paracrine signaling is a form of cell signaling in which the target cell is near the signal-releasing cell, altering thebehavior or differentiation of those competent cells.
Juxtacrine
Main article: Juxtacrine signalling
Juxtacrine signaling is a type of intercellular communication that is transmitted via oligosaccharide, lipid, orprotein components of a cell membrane, and may affect either the emitting cell or the immediately adjacent cells.
It occurs between adjacent cells that possess broad patches of closely opposed plasma membrane linked bytransmembrane channels known as connexons. The gap between the cells can usually be between only 2 and4 nm.
Unlike other types of cell signaling (such as paracrine and endocrine), juxtacrine signaling requires physicalcontact between the two cells involved.
Juxtacrine signaling has been observed for some growth factors, cytokine and chemokine cellular signals.
