Endocrinology

Hormones and Their Receptors Learning Objectives
Chemical Classes of Hormones
Eicosanoids • Define and be able to explain the signifi­
Hormone Receptors cance of the bold italic terms in this
chapter.
Cellular Effects of Peptide Hormones • What are the primary differences
Cellular Effects of Steroid and Thyroid between endocrine, exocrine, and par­
Hormones acrine compounds or hormones?
Negative and Positive Feedback Regulation • How is the specificity of a hormone’s
Hypothalamopituitary Axis effect on a tissue determined?
Hormones of the Neurohypophysis • What are the anticipated intracellular
Hormones of the Adenohypophysis events following binding of a peptide
versus steroid hormone to its receptor?
Growth Hormone • Compare and contrast regulation, synthe­
Adrenocorticotropic Hormone sis, and secretion for hormones in the ade­
Thyroid‐Stimulating Hormone nohypophysis versus neurohypophysis.
Other Endocrine Glands • Illustrate feedback loops for each of the
Parathyroid Glands hormones from the adenohypophysis,
including hypothalamic factors, cell type
Pancreatic Islets in the adenohypophysis, target organ,
Epiphysis (Pineal Gland) and any associated steroid hormones.
• Illustrate glucose regulation from the
endocrine cells in the pancreas.
• Illustrate calcium regulation. Be sure to
include the role of parathyroid hormone,
vitamin D, and calcitonin as well as the
liver, kidney, thyroid gland, and parathy­
roid gland.
