Endocrinology
Endo = Internal
Crinos = Secretion
Endocrinology is a branch of medical science, which deals with
the study of different endocrine glands of the body.
Endocrine System
The endocrine system includes the organ of the body that
secrete hormones directly into body fluids such as blood.
It regulates the chemical reactions in cell and controls
functions of the organs, tissues and other cells.
Classification of Hormone
a) Based on chemical nature
b) Based on the site of action
a) Chemical hormones
There are 3 general classes of hormones:
1.Proteins and polypeptides: secreted by the anterior and
posterior pituitary gland, the pancreas (insulin and glucagon), the parathyroid gland
(parathyroid hormone), and many others.
2. Steroids: secreted by the adrenal cortex (cortisol and aldosterone), the ovaries
(estrogen and progesterone), the testes (testosterone), and the placenta (estrogen and
progesterone).
3. Derivatives of the amino acid tyrosine: secreted by the thyroid (thyroxine and
triiodothyronine) and the adrenal medullae (epinephrine and norepinephrine). There
are no known polysaccharides or nucleic acid hormones.

Effects of PTH
(parathyroid hormone or parathormone)
1. Increases blood Ca++ (calcium) concentration when it
gets too low.
2. Mechanism of raising blood calcium:
Step-1: Stimulates osteoclasts to release more Ca++ from bone
Step-2: Decreases secretion of Ca++ by kidney
Step-3: Activates Vitamin D, which stimulates the uptake of
Ca++ from the intestine
