    The document describes several endocrine system organs and their structures. It discusses the pituitary gland's anterior and posterior lobes and their cell types. It also mentions the pancreas' islets of Langerhans contain alpha and beta cells, and the placenta's chorionic villi contain syncytiotrophoblasts that secrete HCG. Additionally, it notes the thyroid gland contains follicles lined with cuboidal cells and parafollicular cells, and the adrenal gland has a cortex with three zones and an inner medulla.
