Endocrine System (Hormones in Animals/WBBSE))RanjanShaw5
ENDOCRINE SYSTEM : Endocrine system is the system formed by ductless glands which secrete chemical substances called as hormones. Endocrine glands release hormones directly into the blood.
Hormones are minute, chemical messengers thrown into blood to act on target organs.
Hormones can be steroids, proteins, peptides or amino acid derivatives.
These hormones act as on specific organs called target organ.
The target cell has on it surface or cytoplasm, a specific protein molecule called receptor.
The receptor can recognise and pick out the specific hormone capable of acting in cell.
22.chemical control & coordination in one shot.pptxanonymous
There are special chemicals which act as hormones and provide chemical
coordination, integration and regulation in the human body. These hormones
regulate metabolism, growth and development of our organs, the endocrine glands
or certain cells. The endocrine system is composed of hypothalamus, pituitary
and pineal, thyroid, adrenal, pancreas, parathyroid, thymus and gonads (testis
and ovary). In addition to these, some other organs, e.g., gastrointestinal tract,
kidney, heart etc., also produce hormones. Progesterone plays a major role in the maintenance of pregnancy as
well as in mammary gland development and lactation. The atrial wall of the heart
produces atrial natriuretic factor which decreases the blood pressure. Kidney
produces erythropoietin which stimulates erythropoiesis. The gastrointestinal tract
secretes gastrin, secretin, cholecystokinin and gastric inhibitory peptide. These
hormones regulate the secretion of digestive juices and help in digestion.
The endocrine system is a complex network of gland and hormone.
the endocrine glands are ductless gland as they secrete their hormone direct into the blood stream. a hormone is a chemical messengers that regulate body physiology at their own level, hypothalamus is called master of master gland that control releasing and inhibiting process of any other hormone through pituitary, so pituitary is known as master gland of endocrine system.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
3. Thyroid Gland
• Composed of round follicles lined by simple
cuboidal epithelium and filled with colloid.
• Follicular cells synthesize thyroid hormones
(T3 and T4) and secrete them into the blood.
• Hypothalamus releases TRH (thyrotropin
releasing hormone), which makes pituitary release
TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), which makes
thyroid release thyroid hormone.
5. Functions
• increase growth and metabolism.
• stimulate mitochondrial protein synthesis,
increase absorption of carbohydrates, regulate
fat metabolism, promote cell growth.
• it increases basal metabolic rate and revs up
most bodily functions (increases heart rate,
raises body temperature, increases nervous
reactivity, increases GI motility…the list goes
on).
6. Parafolicular Cell C Cells
• Derived from neural crest ectoderm.
• Located between follicular cells and between
follicles.
• Parafollicular cells are larger cells with clear
cytoplasm and small secretory granules
containing calcitonin.
• Calcitonin is made in response to high blood
calcium (it’s not regulated by the pituitary!).
• Calcitonin lowers blood calcium levels by
inhibiting osteoclastic resorption.
10. Parathyroid Glands
• Four glands on posterior surface of
thyroid.
• Main function: secrete parathyroid
hormone (PTH) to regulate calcium levels.
• PTH raises calcium levels in response to
low serum calcium (it’s not regulated by
the pituitary!).
• Two main cell types: chief cells (secrete
PTH) and oxyphils (function unknown).
16. Adrenal Cortex And Medulla
– Adrenal cortex is on the outside
– Originates from mesoderm
– Produces steroids (mineralocorticoids,
glucocorticoids, and sex steroids)
– Adrenal medulla is on inside
– Originates from neural crest
– Produces epinephrine and norepinephrine
21. Zona Fasciculata Hormones
• Middle zone. Cells arranged in straight
bundles.
• Cells make glucocorticoids (mostly cortisol),
and a small amount of androgens.
– Cortisol is a long-term “stress” hormone
– Mobilizes resources (increases blood
glucose)
– Shuts down stuff you don’t need (digestion,
growth, immune response, reproduction)
– Cortisol release is stimulated by ACTH.
23. Zona Reticularis
• Innermost zone. Cells form an irregular
network.
• Cells make sex steroids (androgens).
• Androgens have weak masculinizing
characteristics.
• Androgen release is stimulated by ACTH.
26. Pancreas
• The pancreas has both exocrine (ducts) glands and
endocrine (ductless) glands.
• The exocrine glands produce digestive enzymes;
we’ll discuss these in the Pancreas, Liver and
Gallbladder lecture.
• The endocrine glands produce hormones that regulate
blood glucose: glucagon, insulin, and somatostatin.
They also produce pancreatic polypeptide, which
helps regulate the digestive system.
29. Islets of Langerhan’s &hormones
• A (alpha) cells (15%) 15-25um acidoph.
Granular cytoplasm
• EM. rER, Golgi& membrane-bound secretory
granules.
• Secrete glucagon when blood glucose is low
• Glucagon raises blood glucose
• B (beta) cells 70% 15-25 um centrally located
30. Islets of Langerhan’s &hormones
• Basophilic granular cytoplasm
• EM. Cytoplasm contains rER, well developed
Golgi rounded membrane-bound electro dense
secretory granules.
• Secrete insulin when blood glucose is high
• Insulin decreases blood glucose by making
cells take up glucose and making the liver
synthesize glycogen
31. Islets of Langerhan’s &hormones
• D (delta) cells 10%, periphery stain only by silver
• Secrete somatostatin
• Somatostatin inhibits release of insulin and glucagon
32. Islets of Langerhan’s &hormones
• F cells very few,few organells& few
sec.granules.
• Secrete Pancreatic polypeptide Which inhibits
release of digestive enzymes relaxation of
gallbladder and decreases secretion of bile
• G cells secrete gastrin
• Ganglion cells aggregated nerve cells, for
autonomic nervous cont. of islets.
