THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
 BY: TIERRA SANFORD & KAYLA MCCRAY
WHAT IS THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM?

 • A system of glands that release vital hormones
   into the bloodstream
    • A hormone is a specific messenger made
      and secreted by an endocrine gland.

 • Helps regulate the body’s growth,
   metabolism, function, and sexual
   development
HORMONES
THE MAJOR ORGANS

•   Hypothalamus
•   Pituitary
•   Thyroid
•   Parathyroid
•   Adrenal glands
•   Pancreas
•   Gonads
•   Thymus
•   Pineal Body
HYPOTHALAMUS

• Location: the brain
• Target: sends
  hormones to the
  interior pituitary
• Function: regulates
  secretion of the
  pituitary gland,
  heartbeat,
  temperature, and
  water balance
PITUITARY GLANDS

• Location: the brain,
  connected to the
  hypothalamus
• Target: sends hormones
  to the liver, kidney,
  gonads, and the thyroid
  and adrenal glands
• Function: it controls
  hormone functions such
  as our temperature,
  thyroid activity, growth
  during childhood, urine
  production,
  • functions as our thermostat
    that controls all other
    glands that are responsible
    for hormone secretion
THYROID

• Location: the throat
  area
• Target: sends
  hormones to all
  tissues
• Function: increases
  metabolism, helps
  control health and
  development, and
  helps lower blood
  calcium levels
PARATHYROID GLANDS

• Location: on the
  posterior surface of
  the thyroid
• Target: sends
  hormones to the
  bones, kidneys, and
  intestines
• Function: Raises
  blood calcium level
ADRENAL GLANDS

• Location: on top of the
  kidney
• Target:
  • Adrenal cortex: all tissues
  • Adrenal medulla: cardiac
    and other muscles
• Function: Secrete
  hormones that regulate
  chemical balance and
  metabolism
• Has two portions, the
  cortex and the medulla
  that produce:
  •   Estrogen
  •   Progesterone
  •   Adrenaline
  •   Norepinephrine
PANCREAS

• Location: across the back
  of the abdomen, behind
  the stomach

• Target: small intestines

• Function: The pancreas
  has 2 parts.
  • the exocrine pancreas,
    which secretes digestive
    enzymes
  • the endocrine pancreas
    that secretes hormones
    called insulin and
    glucagon.
    • These hormones regulate the
      level of glucose (sugar) in the
      blood.
GONADS
• Location: testicles in the
  men and ovaries in the
  women
• Target:
• Function:


• The Gonads consist of the
  testes and the ovaries.
• The testes produce
  androgens. (e.g.,
  testosterone)
• The ovaries produce
  estrogens. (e.g.,
  progesterone)
THYMUS

• Location:
• Target:
• Function:
PINEAL BODY

• Location:
• Target:
• Function:
DISEASES

• When glands produce more or less
  hormones needed by the body, diseases
  may occur.
• These diseases include:
  • Adrenal deficiency
  • Types one and two diabetes
  • Precocious puberty
  • Hyperthyroidism
ADRENAL DEFICIENCY

• Adrenal deficiency can be primary or secondary.

• Primary adrenal insufficiency, Addison's disease, occurs
  when the adrenal glands are damaged and cannot
  produce enough of the hormone cortisol and often the
  hormone aldosterone.

• Secondary adrenal deficiency occurs when the pituitary
  gland fails to produce enough adrenocorticotropin
  (ACTH), a hormone that stimulates the adrenal glands to
  produce cortisol. Secondary adrenal insufficiency is
  much more common than Addison's disease.
DIABETES
PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY


         • Abnormal early
           puberty occurring
           when glands tell the
           body to release sex
           hormones too soon
           in life.
HYPERTHYROIDISM


• Hyperthyroidism is a
  disorder that occurs
  when the thyroid
  gland makes more
  thyroid hormone
  than the body
  needs.

  • 1. THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM BY: TIERRA SANFORD & KAYLA MCCRAY
  • 2. WHAT IS THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM? • A system of glands that release vital hormones into the bloodstream • A hormone is a specific messenger made and secreted by an endocrine gland. • Helps regulate the body’s growth, metabolism, function, and sexual development
  • 4. THE MAJOR ORGANS • Hypothalamus • Pituitary • Thyroid • Parathyroid • Adrenal glands • Pancreas • Gonads • Thymus • Pineal Body
  • 5. HYPOTHALAMUS • Location: the brain • Target: sends hormones to the interior pituitary • Function: regulates secretion of the pituitary gland, heartbeat, temperature, and water balance
  • 6. PITUITARY GLANDS • Location: the brain, connected to the hypothalamus • Target: sends hormones to the liver, kidney, gonads, and the thyroid and adrenal glands • Function: it controls hormone functions such as our temperature, thyroid activity, growth during childhood, urine production, • functions as our thermostat that controls all other glands that are responsible for hormone secretion
  • 7. THYROID • Location: the throat area • Target: sends hormones to all tissues • Function: increases metabolism, helps control health and development, and helps lower blood calcium levels
  • 8. PARATHYROID GLANDS • Location: on the posterior surface of the thyroid • Target: sends hormones to the bones, kidneys, and intestines • Function: Raises blood calcium level
  • 9. ADRENAL GLANDS • Location: on top of the kidney • Target: • Adrenal cortex: all tissues • Adrenal medulla: cardiac and other muscles • Function: Secrete hormones that regulate chemical balance and metabolism • Has two portions, the cortex and the medulla that produce: • Estrogen • Progesterone • Adrenaline • Norepinephrine
  • 10. PANCREAS • Location: across the back of the abdomen, behind the stomach • Target: small intestines • Function: The pancreas has 2 parts. • the exocrine pancreas, which secretes digestive enzymes • the endocrine pancreas that secretes hormones called insulin and glucagon. • These hormones regulate the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood.
  • 11. GONADS • Location: testicles in the men and ovaries in the women • Target: • Function: • The Gonads consist of the testes and the ovaries. • The testes produce androgens. (e.g., testosterone) • The ovaries produce estrogens. (e.g., progesterone)
  • 13. PINEAL BODY • Location: • Target: • Function:
  • 14. DISEASES • When glands produce more or less hormones needed by the body, diseases may occur. • These diseases include: • Adrenal deficiency • Types one and two diabetes • Precocious puberty • Hyperthyroidism
  • 15. ADRENAL DEFICIENCY • Adrenal deficiency can be primary or secondary. • Primary adrenal insufficiency, Addison's disease, occurs when the adrenal glands are damaged and cannot produce enough of the hormone cortisol and often the hormone aldosterone. • Secondary adrenal deficiency occurs when the pituitary gland fails to produce enough adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), a hormone that stimulates the adrenal glands to produce cortisol. Secondary adrenal insufficiency is much more common than Addison's disease.
  • 17. PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY • Abnormal early puberty occurring when glands tell the body to release sex hormones too soon in life.
  • 18. HYPERTHYROIDISM • Hyperthyroidism is a disorder that occurs when the thyroid gland makes more thyroid hormone than the body needs.

Editor's Notes

  1. *The endocrine function of the pancreas is localized in the islet cells
