Regulation
Chapter 21
1
Elevated or Depressed Hormone
Levels






Failure of feedback systems
Dysfunction of an endocrine gland
Secretory cells are unable to produce, obtain, or
convert hormone precursors
The endocrine gland synthesizes or releases
excessive amounts of hormone
Increased hormone degradation or inactivation
Ectopic hormone release
