Chapter 10 Endocrinology Teachering Hours 7 hours Intensive Teaching:Mechanisms of hormonal action and regulation of hormonal secretion;Functions of hypothalamus and pituitary hormones,thyroid hormone, insulin.adrenal medulla and cortex hormones,sex hormones. Nodi for student:1.Mechanisms of hormonal action and regulation of hormonal secretion 2.Structure ofhypothalamus and pituitary 3.Function of neurohypophysis,adenohypophysial and hypothalamus hormones Seaction1 Introduction 1.Endocrine system The endocrine system can be defined as the endocrine glands and cells of the body. It is one of the two coordinating and integrating systems of the body,which acts through chemical messengers (hormones)carried in the circulation and is involved in many functions,such as maintenance of the internal environment,control of the storage and utilization of energy enviroment,regulation of growth,development and reproduction,and the body's responses to environmental stimuli. 2.Hormone A hormone is a chemical produced by endocrine glands or endocrine cells in a small amount that is released into the blood stream to act on cells in a distant tissue. Classifition:(1)nitrogenous hormones(2)steroid (3)fatty acid derivatives
