Corpus Spongiosum
-also known as - also called epiphysis cerebri or
Hypophysis or conarium
Hypophysis Cerebri - consists of cells called pinealocytes
- Hormones secreted: Melatonin
-a specialized derived from serotonin, which may
appendage promote sleepiness
of the brain which
secretes several
hormones
PARATHYROID GLAND
- are small oval endocrine glands closely
- secretes thyroid hormones: associated posteriorly with the thyroid gland
1.triiodothyronine(T3) - supplied by inferior thyroid artery
2.tetraiodothyronine(T4) - secretes parathormone, which directly
3.Calcitonin elevate blood calcium levels
Cells in the Islets of Langerhans
1.Alpha Cells
- less numerous containing acidophilic granules.
- found at the periphery of the islet and secrete
glucagon – which increases blood sugar
2.Beta cells
- found at the center of the islets
- it secretes insulin which decreases blood sugar
3.Delta Cells
- secrete somatostatin, which inhibits secretion of
insulin and glucagon and slows absorption of
nutrients from the GIT
4.F Cells
- secrete pancreatic polypeptide
ADRENAL CORTEX
Mineralocorticoids
-regulates fluid and electrolytes
-help adjust blood pressure and
blood volume
Glucocorticoids
-regulate metabolism and
resistance to stress
Adrogens
-libido for female it converts to
estrogen
stimulate growth of of axillary
ADRENAL MEDULLA pubic hair for both male and female
(Catecholamines) (prepubertal growth)
