    Study Notes

    Endocrine System Overview

    • The endocrine system is a collection of ductless glands that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream
    • Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate various physiological processes
    • The hormones bind to specific receptors on target cells or tissues
    • Endocrine glands are ductless, and release hormones directly into the bloodstream
    • Exocrine glands have ducts to carry their secretions to target regions

    Learning Objectives

    • Describe the histological regions and hormones produced by the anterior pituitary
    • Identify cell types and regions of the pituitary gland in a micrograph
    • Describe the histologic features of the posterior pituitary and their functions
    • Trace the hypothalamic-hypophyseal portal system and its function
    • Describe the major functions, histology, and hormones produced by the pineal gland

    Hypothalamus

    • Part of the diencephalon, located beneath the thalamus
    • Maintains homeostasis via releasing and inhibiting hormones
    • Controls autonomic nervous system responses
    • Produces releasing and inhibiting hormones, as well as maintaining homeostasis and regulating the autonomic nervous system.

    Pituitary Gland (Hypophysis)

    • A bi-lobed gland suspended from the hypothalamus by the infundibulum
    • Rests in the sella turcica of the sphenoid bone
    • Anterior lobe (adenohypophysis): adenohypophysis subdivided into: pars tuberalis, pars intermedia, pars distalis
    • Posterior lobe (neurohypophysis): subdivided into infundibular stalk, pars nervosa

    Hypothalamic-Hypophyseal Portal System

    • The primary capillary plexus arises from the superior hypophyseal artery
    • Blood from the primary plexus flows to form a secondary capillary plexus attached to the hypophyseal portal veins
    • Transport regulatory hormones from the hypothalamus to control anterior pituitary hormone release
    • The superior hypophyseal arteries supply the anterior pituitary, and the inferior hypophyseal arteries supply the posterior pituitary

    Hypothalamic-Hypophyseal Tract

    • Axon bundles arise from the hypothalamic supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei
    • Extend into the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary)
    • Transport oxytocin and ADH to the neurohypophysis for storage and release into capillaries
    • Neurosecretory cells transport oxytocin and ADH

    Pineal Gland

    • Also called the pineal body or epiphysis cerebri
    • Attached by a stalk to the posterior wall of the third ventricle
    • Contains pinealocytes (hormone-secreting cells) and glial cells (supporting cells)
    • Receives light information from the eyes, regulating circadian rhythms
    • Pineal gland tissue has variously sized concretions called brain sand (corpora arenacea) that increase in size, abundance, and calcification with age
    • The radiopacity of the pineal body, coupled with its central location makes it a useful landmark for radiologists
    • The pineal gland receives light information from the eyes and integrates this information to regulate circadian body rhythms. Different cells in the gland perform different related functions.

    Anterior Pituitary Pars Distalis

    • Main components are cords of secretory epithelial cells interspersed with fenestrated capillaries and fibroblasts
    • Secretory cells are categorized as chromophobes (poorly staining) and chromophils (acidophils/basophils – brightly staining)
    • Chromophils store abundant cytoplasmic storage granules
    • Corticotrophs produce adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),
    • Gonadotrophs produce follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).,
    • Mammotrophs produce prolactin.
    • Somatotrophs produce growth hormone (GH),
    • Thyrotrophs produce thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH).

    Anterior Pituitary Pars Tuberalis

    • Continuous with the pars distalis, but mainly contains basophilic gonadotrophs (FSH and LH)
    • Contains many of the capillaries of the primary capillary plexus

    Anterior Pituitary Pars Intermedia

    • Located between pars distalis and pars nervosa
    • Contains basophilic cells that secrete melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH)
    • Has colloid-filled cysts (Rathke's cysts)

    Posterior Pituitary Pars Nervosa

    • Composed of nervous tissue
    • Contains unmyelinated axons and pituicytes (glial cells)
    • Contains Herring bodies, storing oxytocin and ADH
    • The Herring bodies are dilated areas or bulges in the axon terminals.
    • The pars nervosa is composed of nervous tissue.

    Hormones of Anterior Pituitary

    • Contains several cell types that secrete different hormones and mediate various body functions

    Hormones of Posterior Pituitary

    • Secretes two hormones: oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
    • Oxytocin (OXY) stimulates uterine contractions and milk ejection.
    • Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) regulates water excretion in the kidneys and arteriolar constriction.
