Describe and correlate the structures and physiology of the different organ systems.

1. How does the endocrine system transmit its messages? What functions do the pituitary gland, adrenal glands, pancreas, and gonads (testes or ovaries) perform?

Discuss how the major endocrine glands are the hormone they produce regulate body function through their interaction with target tissues

5. A 23-year-old man was admitted to a hospital for a planned surgical operation. When performing the surgical operation to remove a tumor from the upper section of the anterior pituitary, an isthmus of the posterior pituitary was 552 Chapter 9. Molecular endocrinology affected. In the postoperative period, in the patient polyuria developed. How to explain the patient symptom? For answer: a) name the hormones synthesized in the hypothalamus and secreted from the posterior lobe of the pituitary; b) draw a schematic mechanism of this hormone signal transduction; c) name the hormone effects.

7 7. NAME ONE hormone secreted by this gland.

1. Compare the synthesis, storage transport of location of receptors and cellular mechanism of action catecholamine, thyroid, peptide and steroid hormones.

11. NAME ONE hormone secreted by this gland. 11

2) Both the nervous system and the endocrine system communicate with remote parts of the body, but they do so in very different ways. Why is muscular contraction under the control of the nervous system and not the endocrine system? Why is growth regulated by the endocrine system?

15. Which hormone is controlled by both a releasing (RH) and inhibiting (IH) hormone? growth hormone (GH) thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)

7.Briefly outline the major endocrine glands, their hormones, and the specific action of these hormones.
