HORMONES 1
  1. Foundations are the HORMONES AND GLANDS
    1. transfer information to cells
      1. Fall into to 2 classes according to structure
        1. - PROTEIN, PEPTIDES, MODIFIED AMINO ACIDS
          1. - STEROIDS
    2. PEPTIDES - majority of hormones
      1. HYPOTHALAMUS
        1. ANT AND POST PITUITARY LOBE
          1. PINEAL GLAND
            1. PANCREAS
              1. PARATHYROID

              1. GONADS
                1. PLACENTAL HORMONES
            2. Endocrine glands secrete more than 20 hormones into the blood
              1. affects cells they are genetically programmed to respond to
                1. Hormone levels are influenced by stress, infection, minerals
                  1. Once hormones are released they travel to TARGET CELLS
              2. Hormones are derived from-STEROIDS,PROTEINS, TYROSINE(AMINO ACID
                1. They become active when bound to specific receptor on target cell
                  1. Controlled by NEGATIVE FEEDBACK

                  1. Originates in the epithelium on back of tongue, travels to front of neck
                    1. Thyroid gland is a vascular organ
                      1. Consists of 2 lobes on each side of trachea
                        1. The 2 lobes are connected by a band of tissue - ISTHMUS
                      2. THYROXINE, TRI-IODOTHYRONINE -contain iodine
                        1. Essential for life
                          1. mental and physical development

                                      1. requires iodine for synthesis
                                        1. 95%thyroxine 5%tri-odothronine
                                        2. THYROID DISEASES
                                          1. HYPERTHYROIDISM-Too much thyroxine
                                            1. Graves disease - due to THYROID STIMULATING ANITBODY- cells grow large
                                              1. HYPOTYHROIDSIM-Too little hormone
                                                1. If there is an IODINE deficiency-stimulates pituitary to secrete THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE
                                                  1. Enlarges thyroid gland - GOITRE or IODINE DEFICIENCY GOITRE
