Sucking stimulates nerves impulses travel along nerves to hypothalamus signals posterior pituitary to release ot ot travels through bloodstream to mammary glands milk ejected. Neuro hormones release hormones directly into bloodstream. Neuro hormones generated i the hypothalamus circulation. Ghrh gh liver insulin-like growth factors. Gnrh lh gonads (male) androgens. Fsh gonads (female) estrogen, progesterone. Anterior pituitary acts like a gland -> contains endocrine cells that release hormones. Nonspecific physical and chemical surface barriers, internal cellular and chemical defense then immune response. Phagocytic cells: neutrophils (first on scene, consume almost anything) and macrophages (consume almost anything) Eosinophils: kill parasites and discharge enzymes that digest target. Natural killer cells: release perforin and proteases and kill invading organisms (cancer cells) Stimulates histamine release promotes phagocytosis kills bacteria enhances inflammation. Activated by - polysaccharides on bacteria surface.
