Document Summary

Increase ca+2 levels (ans, es, pacemaker, chemicals, stretch) Protein that changes shape when calcium binds to it. Decreases calmodulin ---> myosin light chain kinase. Derived from cholesterol (c rings); all nonpolar. Polar ligands bound to membrane bound receptors. Endocrines coming out of blood through urine. Nts connecting up to glands and telling those glands to release endocrine (e. g. , adrenal medulla, hypothalamus) Put one endocrine into a system to get another endocrine into the system (e. g. , pituitary glands) Comes in association with pituitary gland and how the hypothalamus communicates with it. (physically) connected to hypothalamus via the infundibulum. Attached by the infundibulum ? aka connecting or pituitary stalk. Two distinctly different parts > two sections of tissue that have different functions. Anterior (adenohypophysis; apg > anterior pituitary gland) Use these to get to anterior pituitary gland. 7 endocrines follow this pathway and get received by the. Posterior (neurohypophysis; ppg > posterior pituitary gland)
