❀Neuroendocrine cells, also known as neurosecretory cells, release hormones from their synaptic terminals into the bloodstream.

❀This release is controlled via synaptic transmission from presynaptic neurons, a process referred to as neuroendocrine integration.

Examples of neuroendocrine cells include:

❀Magno and Parvocellular Neurons of the Hypothalamus: These neurons secrete various hormones that regulate the pituitary gland and, consequently, other endocrine organs.

❀Chromaffin Cells of the Adrenal Medulla: These cells release hormones such as adrenaline and noradrenaline directly into the bloodstream in response to neural signals, particularly during the "fight or flight" response.
