ENDOCRINE SYSTEM Function


- a network of glands that releases hormones
that control almost all bodily processes
- coordinates metabolism, growth, development,
mood, etc.
hypothalamus The structure/gland that connects the endocrine
system to the nervous system; somatostatin,
CRH, GnRH, GHRH
Pituitary gland The control system of the endocrine system,
necessary for growth, metabolism, reproduction
and stress response; growth hormone, prolactin
Pineal gland Controls the sleep-wake cycle; melatonin
Thyroid gland Gland that controls growth and metabolism;
thyroid hormone
Parathyroid gland The four small structures behind/attached to the
thyroid gland that regulates calcium and
phosphorus levels
thymus The glands where wbc’s are made; thymosin
pancreas The gland that regulates blood sugar level; insulin
and glucagon
Adrenal glands Gland located at the upper part of kidney,
responsible of stress response, releases
adrenaline, the fight or flight hormone, as well as
cortisol and
ovaries Regulates reproductive function in females;
progesterone and estrogen
testicles Regulates reproductive function in males;
testosterone
