Section 1 Hormones
Coordination of Activities
• Reacting to fear, growing taller, and developing male
or female characteristics are all activities in the body
that are partially regulated by hormones.
• Hormones are substances secreted (released) by
cells that act to regulate the activity of other cells in
the body.
• Hormones act as chemical messengers, carrying
instructions that cause cells to change their activities.

Coordination of Activities, continued
• The functions of hormones include the following:
1. Regulating growth, development, behavior, and
reproduction
2. Coordinating the production, use, and storage of
energy
3. Maintaining homeostasis
4. Responding to stimuli from outside the body

Section 1 Hormones
Endocrine Glands and Tissues
• Endocrine glands are ductless organs that secrete
hormones directly into either the bloodstream or the
fluid around cells (extracellular fluid).
• All of the endocrine glands and hormone-secreting
tissues collectively make up the endocrine system.
• Some organs, such as the pancreas, are both
endocrine and exocrine glands. Exocrine glands
deliver substances through ducts (tubelike
structures).

Hormones and Neurotransmitters Are Chemical
Messengers
• The chemical messengers of the nervous system are known as
neurotransmitters, while the chemical messengers of the
endocrine system are called hormones.
• Some nerve cells, however, are capable of secreting hormones,
and several chemicals serve as both hormones in the endocrine
system and neurotransmitters in the nervous system.
• Another difference between the endocrine and nervous systems
is that neurotransmitters are fast-acting and usually short-lived
messengers. Hormones are usually slower-acting and longerlived.

Hormonelike Substances
• Their are many substances, such as neuropeptides
and prostaglandins, that regulate cellular activities
much as hormones do.
• Enkephalins and endorphins are neuropeptides.
Enkephalins inhibit pain messages traveling to the
brain. Endorphins regulate emotions.
• Prostaglandins are modified fatty acids that have a
variety of functions, including the constriction and
dilation of blood vessels.

Section 2 How Hormones Work
Target Cells
• A target cell is a specific cell that a hormone binds to
and acts on (carries the message to).
• A hormone recognizes a target cell because the
target cell has specific receptors. The receptors are
located either on the surface of the target cell (on the
cell membrane) or inside the cell (in the cytoplasm or
nucleus).
• A hormone binds only to cells that have a particular
receptor protein, ignoring all other cells.

Types of Hormones
• Amino-acid-based hormones are hormones made
of amino acids (either a single modified amino acid or
a protein composed of 3 to 200 amino acids). Most
amino-acid-based hormones are water soluble.
• Steroid hormones are lipid hormones that the body
makes from cholesterol. Steroid hormones are fat
soluble.

Section 2 How Hormones Work
Receptors
Amino-Acid-Based Hormones
• Amino-acid-based hormones are not fat soluble, and
most bind to cell membrane receptors:
Step 1 Glucagon binds to a receptor protein on the
cell membrane.
Step 2 This change in shape eventually activates a
second messenger, a molecule that passes the
message from the first messenger (the hormone) to
the cell.

Receptors, continued
Amino-Acid-Based Hormones
Step 3 The second messenger then activates or
deactivates certain enzymes in a cascade fashion.
Step 4 Eventually the activity of the target cell is
changed by the final enzyme in the cascade—even
though the hormone never enters the cell!

Steroid and Thyroid Hormones
• How steroid hormones such as cortisol work is
summarized in the following steps:
Step 1 The hormone diffuses through the cell
membrane and binds to its receptor. The hormone
and receptor form a hormone-receptor complex in the
cytoplasm.
Step 2 The hormone-receptor complex enters the
nucleus of the cell and binds to DNA.

Steroid and Thyroid Hormones
Step 3 Depending on the hormone and the target
cell, the binding either activates or inactivates a gene.
Step 4 The target cell’s activities are altered. For
example, cortisol stimulates the making of enzymes
that break down proteins and fats into glucose.

Feedback Mechanisms
• In many cases the level of a hormone in the blood
turns production of the hormone off and on through
feedback mechanisms.
• If high levels of a hormone stimulate the output of
even more hormone, the regulation is called positive
feedback.
• In negative feedback, a change in one direction
stimulates the control mechanism to counteract
further change in the same direction.

Endocrine Control
The Hypothalamus
• The hypothalamus is the area of the brain that
coordinates the activities of the nervous and
endocrine systems. It controls many body functions,
including body temperature, blood pressure, and
emotions.
• The hypothalamus receives information about
external and internal conditions from other brain
regions. The hypothalamus responds by issuing
instructions—in the form of hormones—to the
pituitary gland.

The Pituitary Gland
• The pituitary gland is an endocrine gland suspended
from the hypothalamus by a short stalk.
• The pituitary gland secretes many hormones, including
some that control endocrine glands elsewhere in the
body.
• The nerve cells in the hypothalamus make at least six
hormones that are released into a special network of
blood vessels between the hypothalamus and the
pituitary gland.

Regulating Metabolism and Development
• Thyroid hormones regulate the body’s metabolic rate
and promote normal growth of the brain, bones, and
muscles during childhood.
• Thyroid hormones also affect reproductive functions
and maintain mental alertness in adults.
• The underproduction of thyroid hormones is
hypothyroidism. The overproduction of thyroid
hormones is hyperthyroidism.

Regulating Calcium Levels
• A high level of calcium in the blood stimulates the
thyroid gland to produce a hormone called calcitonin.
Calcitonin causes calcium to be deposited in bone
tissue rapidly, lowering the blood-calcium level.
• Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a hormone that is
produced by four parathyroid glands attached to the
back part of the thyroid gland.
• PTH is made and released in response to a falling
level of calcium in the blood.

The Adrenal Glands
• The body has two adrenal glands, which are
endocrine organs located above each kidney.
• Each almond-size adrenal gland is actually two
glands in one: an inner core, called the adrenal
medulla, and an outer shell, called the adrenal cortex.

Immediate Response to Stress
• The adrenal medulla acts as a warning system in
times of stress by releasing the “fight-or-flight”
hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine.
• The effects of these hormones are identical to the
effects of the sympathetic nervous system in
response to a stressful situation, but longer lasting.
• In stressful situations the fight-or-flight hormones
increase heart rate, blood pressure, blood glucose
level, and blood flow to the heart and lungs.

Long-Term Response to Stress
• The adrenal cortex hormones provide a slower, more
long-term response to stress than epinephrine and
norepinephrine.
• Cortisol makes more energy available to the body.
• Aldosterone helps reabsorb sodium ions from the
fluids removed by the kidneys so that these ions are
not lost in the urine.

The Pancreas and Other Organs
Regulating Blood Glucose Levels
• The pancreas contains clusters of specialized cells,
called the islets of Langerhans. Two hormones
made by the islets interact to control the level of
glucose in the blood.
• Insulin is a hormone that lowers blood glucose
levels by promoting the accumulation of glycogen in
the liver.
• Glucagon has the opposite effect of insulin—it
raises blood glucose levels.

Regulating Blood Glucose Levels
• Diabetes mellitus is a serious disorder in which cells
are unable to obtain glucose from the blood, resulting
in high blood glucose levels.
• The kidneys excrete the excess glucose, and water
follows, resulting in excessive volumes of urine and
persistent thirst.
• Because cells cannot take up glucose, they use the
body’s supply of fats and proteins for energy.

• The ovaries and the testes, which also produce
gametes, secrete hormones that regulate
reproduction.
• The ovaries secrete estrogens and progesterone,
and the testes produce testosterone.
• These hormones affect the formation of gametes
and control sexual behavior and cycles.

Regulating Daily Rhythms
• The pineal gland is a pea-sized gland located in
the brain, which secretes the hormone melatonin.
• Melatonin seems to be released by the human
pineal gland as a response to darkness.
Therefore, the pineal gland is thought to be
involved in establishing daily biorhythms.
• The pineal gland may also play a role in mood
disorders such as seasonal affective disorder
(SAD) syndrome.
