Endocrine system is a network of gland which produce many functions.
All glands produce different kind of hormone which produce different functions.
Types of Gland
Endocrine Gland
Exocrine Gland
Endocrine Gland
Endocrine gland is a special type of gland which directly produce hormones in blood circulation.
Exocrine Gland
Exocrine gland also important gland which produce hormones by duct
Pituitary Gland
Pituitary gland is a part of Endocrine system which produce many hormones.
Pituitary gland is also called master gland because it is produced its own hormones as well as it is control production of hormones in different glands.
It is the smallest gland oof the body. It is found oval.
Furthermore, it is located in the brain below the hypothalamus.
Parts of Pituitary Gland
Front Lobe/ Anterior Lobe/ Adenohypophysis.
Back Lobe/ Posterior Lobe/ Neurohypophysis
Hormone release by Anterior Lobe
GH (Growth Hormone)
STH (Somatotrophin Hormones)
These hormones are most important for growth and physical development of body
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormones)
These hormones are stimulated to a thyroid gland for production of thyroid hormones.
ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormones)
These hormones stimulate an adrenal gland to produce cortisol hormones.
Prolactin
This hormone estimate female breast for production of milk.
FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone)
It is most important for production of egg in female.
LH (Leuitenizing Hormone)
This hormone help to production of estrogen hormones in female and also help to production of Testosterone hormone in male.
Hormone release by posterior Lobe
ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)
Vasopressin Hormone
It helps to body for conservation of water.
OXYTOCIN
It is important for production of breast milk.
It is also important for contraction of uterus.
Thyroid Gland
Thyroid Gland is the largest Endocrine Gland.
It is located in front of the trachea, just below the larynx.
It is found butterfly in shape.
Structure of thyroid gland
It is a bilobed gland.
Both lobes are connected to each other by Isthmus.
This thyroid lobe made up small follicles which are connected to each other by Stroma connective Tissue.
Hormones release by Thyroid Gland
T3 (Triiodothyronine)
It is also called cellular thyroid hormones.
It is important for physical development of body.
It is also important for basal metabolism.
T4 (Tetraiodothyronine)
It is also called thyroxine hormones.
It is also important for physical development of body.
Calcitonin
Its main function is that it help to maintain a calcium level in blood.
Disorder of Thyroid Hormones
Hypothyroidism
This is the medical conditions in which decrease the level of thyroid hormones.
Types of Hypothyroidism
Creationism
It is the condition which is seen in children.
In this condition seen a mental disorder and irregular growth of children’s.
Myxoedema
This condition is only seen in adult person.
In this condition increase the swelling in foot.
Hyperthyroidism(Thyrotoxicosis)
It is the

16. Disorder of Thyroid Hormones
Hypothyroidism
This is the medical conditions in which decrease the level of thyroid hormones.
Types of Hypothyroidism
Creationism
It is the condition which is seen in children.
In this condition seen a mantal disorder and irregular growth of children’s.
Myxedema
This condition is only seen in adult person.
In this condition increase the swelling in foot.

17. Hyperthyroidism
(Thyrotoxicosis)
It is the condition in which increase the level of thyroid hormones.
Types of Hyperthyroidisms
Grave Disease
In this condition increase the size of eye ball which is called
Exophthalmos.

21. Adrenal cortex
• Adrenal cortex made up 3 layer.
Zona Glomerulosa
It is outer most layer of adrenal gland which produces important hormones,
Mineralocorticoid hormones.
Mineralocorticoid hormones
This hormones is also called life serving hormones.
This is special hormones which produce by zona glomerulosa layer of cortex,
which is only work on electrolyte.
Presentation title 21
22. Zona Fasciculata Layer
• It is a middle layer of Adrenal cortex which produce special hormone,
Glucocorticoid hormone.
• Cortisol hormone is a important example of Glucocorticoid hormone.
Glucocorticoid hormone
This hormones also called life protective hormones.
It is help stress and trauma condition.
Presentation title 22
23. Zona Reticularis
• This is inner most layer of cortex
• by this layer produce sex hormones ( Testosterone in male and
Estrogen in female).
Presentation title 23
24. Adrenal Medulla
• This is the internal part of adrenal gland
• It is made up of Chromaffin cell. This cell produce special Hormones.
Adrenaline Hormones ( Epinephrine)
Tis hormones work on heart means it help to increase the rate of
heart.
Non Adrenaline Hormones ( Norepinephrine)
This hormones help to increase the blood pressure.
