Document Summary
Acb 3309 lecture 14 (36) endocrine system pituitary gland. Pituitary gland integrates the ns with reactions that are based on hormonal secretions. Vast majority of the glands are regulated by this gland. Connection b/w cells that secrete hormones and the nervous system is very important. Blood supply is important factor of the organization of the pituitary gland. Is very significant, which is why there is protection of bone surrounding it. Early on, we have two regions of our anatomy that come together to form the pituitary gland. Starts off with the floor of the diencephalon (neural epithelium: starts an outgrowth towards the roof of the mouth (epithelial cells, nervous tissue and epithelial cells come together they interact structurally and functionally with one another. Nervous tissue forms stock like structure, and the epithelium forms a loop: loop closes on itself and forms rathke"s pouch. In the adult, there is evidence of the rathkes pouch.
