CELL COMMUNICATION AND Endocrine System


Slide Content

SUSILO WIBOWO 2012 CELL COMMUNICATION and ENDOCRINE SYSTEM The tiniest world organization: Inside story

No cell live in isolation, particularly Multicellular organism Inside cell and cell to cell comm.network will coordinate: Growth , Differentiation , and Metabolism Communication , over micrometres to metres & m s ec . to months Type of communication: Direct contact: gap junction & surface ligand receptor Electrical : nervous system communication Chemical : 1. Intracell  intracrine 2. Intercell  Autocrine , Ju n ctacrine , Paracrine , Endocrine , Ectocrine

Cell-to-Cell Interactions Cells within a tissue are connected to each other by cell junctions 1. tight junctions – create sheets of cells 2. anchoring junctions – connect the cytoskeletons of adjacent cells 3. communicating junctions – permit small molecules to pass between cells a. gap junctions – in animal cells b. plasmodesmata – in plant cells c. Sel surface signal - in Immune cells

Gap Junction Chanels grow from each cell joint up Permit movement of small molecules between adjucent cell Not permanently open-if neigbouring cells dies, healthy cell close chanels Permit close communication between cells within a tissue *coordinated activity Flow of Ca 2+ between hearth muscle cells to generate hearth beat Cell surface signals Cell surface glycoproteins in physical cell-to-cell association Promote adhesion and recognition Initiates action following receptor activation Important in Development and growth Communication between immune cells

Principles of cell signaling Signal transduction Message is converted from one form to another Electric signal Sound Electric signal Chemical

Principles of cell signaling Ligands or stimulus “Message” from extracellular Chemical (i.e. hormone) Electrical Receptors “Receivers” for cell Second messengers Intracellular relay, amplification or “translation” of message Secretion “out put” from the secretion or activation of a new molecule

Types of Ligands Chemical Structures Amines Steriods Peptides or proteins Eicsanoids

Nervous System communication/neurotransmitter Electrical signal (impuls)-extremely fast 1-100m/sec Can be over vast distances-many meters in a giraffe or whale High precision and specificity-cos signal transported along particular nerve pathway only to target cells Intra cellular communication Responses to external stimuly Cell membrane isolate cell from its environment, but transmits information about external stimuli Most common external stimuly: PHYSICAL: light, voltage change, strech/mechanical distortion CHEMICAL: hormons/ENDOCRINE , neurotransmitter, cell surface mulecul, taste, smell

ENDOCRINE SYSTEM Cells, organs, and functions in the human or animal body are regulated practically every day by the endocrine system. Structurally, the endocrine system is a collection of ductless glands that secrete chemical messages known as hormones. Main function of the endocrine network is to maintain homeostasis of and long-term control in the body by means of chemical signals. It works in parallel with the nervous system to control many body functions . The glands that make up the (human’s) endocrine system are hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenals, pineal body, pancreas, ovaries, and testicles.

B y releasing chemical substances into the blood called hormones Hormone is c hemical messenger produced by a ductless gland or tissue & c arried in the blo od to a target organ where it effects a change in cellular activity Classic: H ormone is a chemical secreted by a cell or group of cells into the blood for a distant target, its effect at very low T he shape of each hormone molecule is specific and can bind to certain cellular receptors only.

Types of Glands (a) Exocrine glands

Types of endocrine actions Paracrine - released from effector cell (E) interact with a different target cell (T ) in adjuscent cell E T E 2) Autocrine - secreted by E interact with original E cell or similar cell types.

3) Ju nc tacrine -expressed on surface of effector cell and interacts with target cell via direct cell-cell contact E T 4) Intracrine – Secretes own hormone within an intercellular to bind to a receptor. 5) Endocrine – Secreted in to blood sirculation and affect on distance target cell EffectorCell 1 Targe t Cell 2 Capillary

6 ) Ectocrine (Pheromones ) are chemical signals that are released by an individual into the environment and which affect the physiology or behavior of other members of the same species Lee-Boot effect : Crowded female mice become anestrous when no mal es are present . Bruce effect : A newly mated female mouse will abort if placed with a strange male (not the previous mate) Dormitory effect : M enstrual synchrony in all-females living groups

Regulation by chemical messengers Axon Neurotransmitter Endocrine gland Receptor proteins Hormone carried by blood Target cell Neurotransmitters released by neurons Hormones release by endocrine glands

Signal-Transduction S ignals that are released from one cell and allowed to freely diffuse to a second (or more) recipient cell(s) These communications are deliberately initiated, received, and interpreted in order to increase the physiological coordination of the cells in multicellular organisms Three Stages of Signal Transduction Reception of extracellular signal by cell Transduction of signal from outside of cell to inside of cell - often multi- stepped Cellular Response Response is inititiated and/or occurs entirely within receiving cell

Three Stages of Signal Transduction

Various Responses Note that more than one response can result from the reception of a single ligand

Various Responses

Ligands e.g., steroid hormones e.g., nitric oxide

Intracellular Reception

Extracellular Reception e.g., insulin e.g., epinephrine

Receptor Types 3 subclasses of membrane receptors: 1. channel linked rec , ion channel that opens in response to a ligand 2. enzymatic rec , is an enzyme that is activated by the ligand 3. G protein-coupled receptor , G-protein (bound to GTP) assists in trans - mitting the signal

Ion-Channel Receptors

G-Protein Coupled Receptors G-protein – protein bound to GTP G-protein-coupled rec (GPCRs) – receptors bound to G proteins -G-protein is a switch turned on by the receptor -G-protein then activates an effector protein (usually an enzyme) Once activated, the effector protein produces a second messenger . second messenger generates the cellular response to the original signal For example – one common effector protein is adenylyl cyclase which produces cAMP as a second messenger. Other second messengers: inositol phosphates, calcium ions (Ca 2+ )

G Protein-Linked Receptors

G Protein-Linked Receptors note how activation is reversible

G Protein-Linked Receptors T he more ligand binding, the more K + in cytoplasm

Protein Kinase & Phosphatase A cell’s response to a signal often involves activating or inactivating proteins. Phosphorylation is a common way to change the activity of a protein. protein kinase – an enzyme that adds a phosphate to a protein phosphatase – an enzyme that removes a phosphate from a protein

Tyrosine Kinase Receptors Note steps involved: Ligand Reception Receptor Dimerization Catalysis ( Phosphorylization ) Subsequent Protein Activation Further Transduction Response K inase cascade a series of protein kinases that phosphorylate each other in succession A mplifies the signal because a few signal molecules can elicit a large cell response M itogen -activated protein (MAP) kinases A re activated by kinase cascades

Tyrosine Kinase Receptors

Signal Amplification (Cascade) Note how, via catalysis , one ligand molecule binding gives rise to many new intracellullar molecules

Phosphorylation Cascade This reversibility contributes to the dynamic nature of cells: A protein that is activated by a Protein Kinase in turn is inactivated by a Protein Phosphatase This means that the effect of signals can’t last forever For the cellular response to continue, more signal must be received

Phosphorylation Cascade

Epinephrine  Glycogen Breakdown 10 molecules 10 2 molecules 10 4 molecules 10 4 molecules 10 5 molecules 10 6 molecules 10 8 mol Glu-1-Phosphate

Second Messengers: cAMP 1st of 2 major pathways triggered by G-protein-coupled receptors Effector ( adenylyl cyclase ) generates cAMP as second messenger cAMP activates specific protein kinases Second Messengers: cAMP -Receptor-Response Pathw

Second Messengers

Cyclic AMP ( cAMP ) 2 nd Messenger

Second Messengers: IP 3 and DAG 2nd major pathway triggered by G-protein–coupled receptors Activated effector ( phospholipase C ), generates two second messengers, IP 3 and DAG IP 3 activates transport proteins in the ER Releasing stored Ca 2+ into the cytoplasm Released Ca 2+ (alone or with DAG ) activates specific protein kinases Adds phosphate groups to target proteins IP 3 / DAG Receptor-Response Pathway

Inositol Triphosphate 2 nd Messenger

Pathway Controls cAMP and IP 3 /DAG pathways are balanced by reactions that eliminate second messengers Stopped by protein phosphatases that continually remove phosphate groups from target proteins Stopped by endocytosis of receptors and their bound extracellular signals Mutations Mutated systems can turn on the pathways permanently, contributing to progression of some forms of cancer

Gene Regulation: Ras Some pathways in gene regulation link certain receptor tyrosine kinases to a specific G protein ( Ras ) When the receptor binds a signal molecule, it phosphorylates itself Adapter proteins then bind, bridging to and activating Ras Activated Ras Activated Ras turns on the MAP kinase cascade Last MAP kinase in cascade phosphorylates target proteins in the nucleus Activates them to turn on specific genes Many of these genes control cell division Gene Regulation

Specificity of Cell Signaling Note how same ligand gives rise to different responses Cells differ in terms of their proteins Different proteins respond differently to the same environental signals (note, though, same receptors, different relay) Different cells behave differently because some, but not all proteins can differ between cell types

Integration of Cell Communication Pathways - Cross Talk Cell signaling pathways communicate with one another to integrate responses to cellular signals May result in a complex network of interactions between cell communication pathways Modification of Cell Response Cross-talk often results in Modifications of cellular responses controlled by the pathways Fine-tuning effects of combinations of signal molecules binding to receptors of a cell Cell Communication Pathways In Animals I nputs from other cellular response systems also can become involved in the cross-talk network Cell adhesion molecules Molecules arriving through gap junctions

Chemical characteristics of hormones HORM0NE

Function of the hormon differ appropriatelly Different organ secreted different hormon and regulate different action

Location Classical location

“Classic ” g lands Hypothalamus: GHRH, CRH, TRH, GnRH Somatostatin ADH Pituitary: Growth hormone Prolactin ACTH , TSH FSH & LH Oxytocin ADH Pancreas: Insulin Glucagon Ovaries: Estrogens Progesterone Epiphysis /Pineal : Melatonin Thyroid gland: T3, T4 Calcitonin Parathyroid glands: Parathyroid h. Adrenal cortex: Cortisol Aldosterone Androgens DHEA Adrenal medulla: Catecholamines

Less traditional sources P lacenta : All hormones A dipocytes : L eptin C ardiocytes : ANP (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide) Kidney : E rythropoietin RAS renin-angio- tensin system GIT : Gastrin Cholecystokinin Secretin , E ndothelium: Endothelins NO Prostanoids,... Immune system: Cytokines Platelets, mesenchyme: Growth factors Gonads : Inhibins Activins

1) Amines (from tyrosine ) Amine hormones are (all) derived from the amino acid tyrosine secreted by the glands hydroxylation – catecholamines iodination - thyroid hormones Epinephrine and Norepinephrine converted from Tyrosine Involved in sympathetic responses and stress S ecreted from the adrenal medulla

Steroids (from cholesterol) Nearly all responsible for development of many sex characteristics : Adrenocortikoids sex hormones active metabolites of vit D

Steroid Metabolism

3) Proteins and Peptides Most hormones are peptides, thus each with only a short chain of amino acids; they are synthesized largely as proteins first. Peptide - Few - Several amino acids Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone ( GnRH ) - 10 amino acids Oxytocin - 8 amino acids Glycoprotein - Protein hormone with carbohydrate molecules Some have large amount of sialic acid - FSH Protein - Long chains of amino acids Prolactin - 198 amino acids Adrenalcorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) – 39 AA

4). Prostaglandins Produced by all tissues from fatty acids or phospholipids Can have a local effect on tissues (same tissue which produced it) Rapidly degraded in lungs Arachidonic Acid Precursor to Prostaglandins Aspirin inhibits PGF2a vasoconstriction of Blood vessels PGE2 vasodilatation of blood vessels

Prostaglandins (a group of related compounds). Named from discovery in semen (fluids from prostate): stimulate contraction of uterine smooth muscle pump sperm up to the ejaculatory duct Note: this particular function is a chemical signal to another individual or paracrine Potentiates pain by sensitizing nearby ‘ pain receptor’ neurons ( nociceptors ): more responsive to slightest pressure. Prostaglandins are one of the Chemical Signals (cytokines ) that recruit phagocytes to wounds and potentiate pain - to get your attention , so you’ll protect wound while it heals.

Cyclooxygenases COX1 & COX2 catalyze prostaglandin synthesis.  NonSteroidal Anti- Inflamatory Drugs (NSID) act by inhibiting cyclooxygenases generally – both COX1 & COX2 . Prostaglandins from COX 1 act to suppress acid secretion in the stomach & promote protective mucus coating on the stomach wall, general cyclooxygenase inhibitors, such as aspirin, cause pitting and bleeding of the stomach wall.

Transport of hormones Freely in blood: Catecholamines Most peptides Specific transport ( globulins /albumin & other protein) : Steroids Thyroid hormones Plasma halftime (days) % bound hormone Thyroxin T3 Testosterone Cortisol Transporter binding lengthens hormone halftime

Lipid solubility of hormone Steroid Hormones: Lipid soluble Diffuse through cell membranes Endocrine organs Adrenal cortex Ovaries Testes placenta Nonsteroid Hormones: Not lipid soluble Received by receptors external cell membrane Endocrine organs Thyroid gland Parathyroid gland Adrenal medulla Pituitary gland pancreas

Receptors Cells of target organ have specific receptors for hormones. Hormone binds to receptor and stimulates a specific cellular response - protein & peptide, receptor is in plasma membrane. - steroids receptor is in nucleus - prostaglandins- receptor is in plasma membrane. Number of receptors on or in cell regulate degree of cell stimulation and cellular response to the hormone Hormones can also regulate whether there is a increase or decrease in the number of receptors Most common in mammals is the “7-transmembrane G-coupled receptor”

Number of Receptors Down-regulation : is the decrease of hormone receptors which decreases the sensitivity to that hormone Up-regulation : is the increase in the number of receptors which causes the cell to be more sensitive to a particular hormone Lack of androgen receptor in male – Testicular Feminization syndrome Number of receptors on or in cell determined the degree of response agains stimulation

Hormone action depends on lipid solubility Peptide/Proteins Catecholamines Steroid & Thyroid hormones Receptor in cell membrane Receptor in cytosol or nucleus Second messengers ---> Protein activity Gene expression Fast Slower cAMP cGMP IP 3 Ca/ calmodulin tyr kinases Smad MAP kinases One hormone can use several systems (in various cells or for different functions)

triggers uptake of glucose by body cells triggers storage in liver - depresses appetite pancreas pancreas beta islet cells alpha islet cells Regulating blood sugar levels - triggers release of glucose by liver - stimulates appetite

ADH Dehydration Lowers blood volume & pressure Increased water retention Increased vasoconstriction leading to higher blood pressure Reduced urine volume Osmotic concentration of blood increases ADH synthesized in hypothalamus ADH released from posterior pituitary into blood Osmoreceptors Negative feedback Negative feedback Regulating blood osmolarity If amount of dissolved material in blood too high, need to dilute blood

Regulating blood calcium levels Increased blood Ca ++ Thyroid Parathyroids Low blood Ca ++ Parathyroid hormone (PTH) Increased absorption of Ca ++ from intestine due to PTH activation of Vitamin D Reabsorption of Ca ++ & excretion of PO 4 Osteoclasts dissolve CaPO 4 crystals in bone, releasing Ca ++ – Negative feedback

CLASSIC HORMON IN THIS LECTURE

Major vertebrate hormones (1)

Major vertebrate hormones (2)

1. MELATONIN Produced by Pineal gland (seat of the soul) and retina Often named as “mother of Hormone” Function as Zeitgeber or “time giver” Produce melanin

Melatonin is N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine in animals, & microbes. Many biological effects of melatonin are produced through activation of melatonin receptors . O thers are due to its role as a pervasive and powerful antioxidant, with protect nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. R egulates s leep -wake cycle by causing drowsiness & lowering body temperature, central y (specifically, the suprachiasmatic nuclei, SCN) that controls the daily cycle in most components of the paracrine & endocrine systems rather than the melatonin signal . Melatonin have some use against other circadian rhythm sleep disorders as well, such as jet lag and the problems of people who work rotating or night shifts. What is Melatonin? Soporofic (make sleepy)

Produced when is dark enough Produced when sleeping deep enough

Almost equal circadian between men and women

Increase after delivery Start decrease aproxima- tely at age 5-9 years Decrease concentration by age Decrease peak of daily circadian by age and cause insomnia

In humans, sleep becomes shorter with increasing age

Melatonin easily cross cell membranes & blood-brain barrier. Melatonin is a direct scavenger of OH, O2-, and NO. D oes not undergo redox cycling that regain their antioxidant properties. O nce oxidized forms several stable end-products . More powerful than both glutathioneand mannitolin neutralizing hydroxyl radicals and may protect cell membranes more effectively than vitamin E. P revent the damage to DNA by some carcinogens, stopping the mechanism by which they cause cancer. Melatonin's antioxidant activity may reduce damage caused by some types of Parkinson's disease M ay play a role in preventing cardiac arrhythmia M ay increase longevity; it has been shown to increase the average life span of mice by 20% in some studies. Powerfull Antioxidant

I nteracts with the immune system, with unclear mechanism . E nhance cytokine production & counteract acquired immunodeficiency. Es eful for infectious disease incl . viral, such HIV & bacterial i nfections , P otentially for the treatment of cancer , BUT still inconclusive. Enhance Immune System A utism spectrum disorders (ASD) have lower levels of melatonin. In 2008 found , unaffected parents of ASD also have lower melatonin & were associated with low activity of the ASMT gene, which encodes the last enzyme of melatonin synthesis. Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) . Research found melatonin administered to ADHD patients on methylphenidate, significantly reduces the time needed to fall asleep THAT remain undiminished 3 months efficacy, as one week into the treatment. Play role in Autism treatment

Insomnia Stress Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome PMS Seasonal Affective Disorder Menstrual Irregularities Depression Infertility Immune Disorders Abnormal Sexual Development Cardiovascular Disease Cancer Other positive effects Affect physical & psychological disorders in relation with DHEA & GH Now, Melatonin Spray place melatonin in tiny nano already available

2. DHEA DHEA/DHEAS IS PRECUSOR OF T ESTOSTERON & ESTROGEN Produced by ZONA RETICULARIS ADRENAL gland Determine: ♫ Brain Development icluding : ♥ formal thinking ; ♥ higher math ematic; ♥ Syntax ; and ♥ hypotheses formulation

Up Regulation of DHEA Receptor in c ub -cortical & cortex cerebri The receptor ▼ in line with puberty & DHEA converted to T or E The most abundantly produced steroids High when still fetus mximal in 40 weeks gestation and birth Decrease after delivery and increase through puberty

Abnormal cortisol levelshave been observed in chronic fatigue, depression, panic disorders, male impotence, infertility, PMS, menopause, anorexia nervosa, and sleep disturbances. Low DHEA has been associated with immunedysregulation, osteo- porosis, insomnia, depression, fatigue, and decreased libido. Long-term effectsof elevated cortisolor of a low DHEA: cortisol ratio include fatigue, irritability, dysglycemia, central obesity, impaired immunity, and osteoporosis. Relation of DHEA with several disorders depicted in right diagram

DHEA and DHEAS levels were decline with advancing age of men and women. Peak Levels at age 20-25

Low DHEA has been associated with arthritis DHEA also related with concentration and production of melatonin. When someone could not sleep, the body use DHEA and when they wake up, they feel tired The Melatonin and DHEA peak production seems correlate with the stage of Development

By inhibiting tryptophan hydroxylase enzyme activity, DHEA provided protection in rats subjected to acute sound stress. U se of DHEA-S as a biological indicator of stress, aging, age- related diseases : neurosis, depression, psychosomatic disorders, peptic ulcer, irritable bowel syndrome, and others. E xhibits pronounced anti- cortisol activity, normal DHEA levels may be key indicators of a patient’s ability to cope with stress. DHEA and Stress DHEA demonstrated a “consistent, independent, inverse, dose- response relationship” with coronary atherosclerosis in men. Suggested that DHEA-S could serve as an important, modifiable factor in the development & progression of coronary atherosclerosis. DHEA and Heart Attack

Excretion of DHEA is reduced in individuals with essential hyper- tension, compared to controls. This deficiency also causes increased conversion of deoxycorti- costerone to corticosterone, leading to the overproduction of mineralocorticoid ( viz.aldosterone) syndrome characterized by hypertension. DHEA and Hypertension Decrease in serum DHEA levels was recorded in hypothyroidism. DHEA and Thyroid Function PREVALENCE of Adrenal androgen deficiency Syndrom = AADS ( dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate DHEAS deficiency) is a common cause of asthenia (42 %)

Epidemiology shows that DHEA are related to etiology of certain Ca . Decreasing DHEA & DHEA-S positively correlated with development of bladder cancer & gastric cancer in some patients. Patients with prostate Ca & lung Ca also shown have lower DHEA. In certain clinical situations, reduced DHEA may serve as a marker of adrenocortical tumor. When administered to laboratory animals, DHEA prevents growth of spontaneous & chemically-induced tumors, although in large doses it may exert a hepatocarcinogenic effect. DHEA and Cancer DHEA seems likely also act as a key factor in preventing age-related dementia and neuronal damage.

4) Insulin Produced by Pancreas gland that attach to duodenum

Pancreas a key gland located in the folds of the duodenum has both endocrine and exocrine functions secretes several key digestive enzymes Islets of Langerhans specialized tissues in which the endocrine functions of the pancreas occurs include 3 types of cells: alpha (  ) beta ( ) delta ( ) each secretes an important hormone . Alpha ( ) cells release glu - cagon , essential for control - ling blood glucose levels. When blood glucose levels fall,  cells  the amount of glucagon in the blood . The surge of glucagon stimulates the liver to release glucose stores (from glycogen and additional storage sites). Also, glucagon stimulates the liver to manufacture glucose gluconeogenesis .

Beta Cells ( ) release insulin (antagonistic to glucagon). Insulin  the rate at which various body cells take up glucose. Thus, insulin lowers the blood glucose level. Insulin is rapidly broken down by the liver and must be secreted constantly. Delta Cells ( ) produce somatostatin , which inhibits both glucagon and insulin. Target tissue of Pancreatic hormons Gland & Major Hormones Target Tissue Major Hormones Effects Pancreas Glucagon All cells, particularly in liver, muscle, and fat Stimulate hepatic glycogenolysis & gluconeogenesis, increasing blood glucose level Insulin All cells, particularly in liver, muscle, and fat Stimulate cellular uptake of glucose, increase rate of synthesisi of glycogen, proteins, and fats, decreasing blood glucose level Somatostatin Alpha & Beta cells in tne pancreas Suppresses secretion of glucagon and insulin within islets of Langerhans

5) Hormons produced by Pituitary Gland

In endocrine system, it was well known that endocrine also divided into two categories i.e: Central Axis HPA (Hypophyseal - Pituitary Axis): Hypophysis Third Ventricle GRH, TRH, CRH, GnRH , Dopamine, Somatostatin Neurohypophysis Derived from Hypophysis ADH, Oxytocin Adenohypophysis Derived from Rathke’s pouch ACTH, LH, FSH, TSH, GH, PRL P eripheral Axis Thyroid Parathyroid Adrenal Gonadal Gastrointestinal 5a) GH One of several hormon that produced by Hypophyseal gland

HPA produce hormons depicted below.

Regulation of GH secretion R eleased in a pulsatile fashion in response to GHRH release from the hypothalamus, inhibited by GHIH R elease also stimulated by: hypoglycemia and fasting increased amino acids in plasma stress exercise The secretion of GH from the pytuitary occurs throughout life Maximal secretion occurs during puberty After puberty, levels gradually but progressively decline Levels throughout life

Effect on Growth G rowth hormone is only one necessary factor for normal development GH stimulates long bone growth GH effect through IGFs that stimulate bone & cartilage growth increases length prior to epiphyseal closure increases width after epiphyseal closure Increased rate of protein synthesis in all body cells Increased mobilization and use of fatty acids from adipose tissue for energy Decreased rate of glucose utilization (i.e. enhances body protein, uses up fat stores and conserves CHO)

Increased abdominal fat mass Decreased glucose tolerance Decreased lean muscle mass Decreased protein synthesis Decreased bone mass Decreased skeletal muscle strength Decreased aerobic capacity Decreased immune function Decreased wound healing Decreased skin thickness Decreased quality of life (sleep, mood, body image, sense of well being) The elderly have mild GH deficiency. Ageing related changes that resemble GH deficiency i.e:

5b) Prolactin Instead of secreted by Pituitary Anterior (approximately 25% of hormon secreted by gland Pituitary galnd) Prolactin also secreted by variety of other cells in the body: A variety of immune cells Brain Decidua of pregnant uterus PRL “Small” (MW sp 22.000, aktivitas tinggi , monomeric PRL “Big” (MW sp 50.000, dimeric & trimeric PRL “Big-Big” (MW sp 100.000) PRL Glycosylate (MW sp 25.000), Abundant but activity < PRL”Small ” In Blood circulation, PRL have 4 differnt forms i.e.:

Macroprolactin ( Big-Big, Big, and Glycosylate PRL) is a prolactin - immunoglobulin complex which causes false positive results in many prolactin immunoassays. Laboratories require methods to identify this prolactin type major function of prolactin is milk pro - duction – oxytocin stimulates ejection of milk

Lactogenesis is triggered following the expulsion of the placenta by a fall in progesterone and estrogen levels and continued presence of prolactin . As progesterone and estrogen levels abruptly drop, the anterior pituitary gland, no longer inhibited by these two hormones, releases very large amounts of prolactin . Prolactin levels rise and fall in proportion to the frequency, intensity , and duration of nipple stimulation and the suckling stimulus . During the first week postpartum, prolactin levels in breastfeeding women drop about 50 percent. If a mother does not breastfeed, prolactin levels usually reach nonpregnant levels by seven days postpartum.

P rolactin levels during breastfeeding • Prolactin levels decline slowly over the course of lactation, but remain elevated for as long as the mother continues to breastfeed. • The level of prolactin is related with the frequency of suckling: the more feedings, the higher the prolactin level. More than eight breastfeedings per 24 hours prevent decline of the concentration of prolactin before the next feeding. Prolactin levels are higher in amenorrheic than in cycling women during the first year postpartum. Prolactin delays fertility. It delays the return of ovulation by inhibiting the ovarian response to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Prolactin may be affected by smoking and beer. Smoking may reduce prolactin levels; drinking a beer may increase prolactin levels.

Lactation Hypothalamus releases PRH. Anterior pituitary releases prolactin: Stimulates milk production. Prolactin secretion primarily controlled by PIH. Oxytocin needed for “milk letdown.”

6) Hormon Produced by Gonads Female gonad: Ovaries Male gonad : Testes Ovaries Estrogen Most cells, particularly those of female reproductive tract Stimulates development of secondary sexual characteristics, play role in maturation of egg prior to ovulation. Progesteron Uterus Stimulate uterine change necessary for sucessful pregnancy Testis Testosteron Most cells, particularly those of male reproductive tract Stimulates development of secondary sexual characteristics, play role in development of sperm cells

Under the control of LH and FSH from the anterior pituitary 6a) ESTROGEN & PROGESTERON Produced by Ovaries

External factor as well as other hormons influence the production. This effect should be taken into account in the fertility work-up

Hormonal Control of the Ovarian & Uterine Cycles When ovulation Basal body temperatur increase. Used as indicator of ovulation

Estrogen and Progesteron decrease with advancing age In Premenopause and Menopause, estrogen is relative high compare to progesteron since woman less or not ovulation & no corpus luteum Some women experience hot flus. However some scientist believe that hot flush produce by peak of LH surge

Effects of Hormone s Estrogens Produced by follicle cells Cause secondary sex characteristics Enlargement of accessory organs Development of breasts Appearance of pubic hair Increase in fat beneath the skin Widening and lightening of the pelvis Onset of menses Progesterone Produced by the corpus luteum Production continues until LH diminishes in the blood Helps maintain pregnancy Healthy skin with sufficient Estrogen Old skin with less Estrogen

Estrogen and Progesterone have several functions, including sexual development and preparation of the uterus for implantation of the egg. Ovarian hormone (Estrogen & Progesteron) also have major role in Platelet – Derived factor as response to injury

Estrogen have wider target and effect on the body, including skin Growth of Epithelium rate of bone blood skin structure Liver synthesis of follilcle Growth of endometrium Lowers plasma cholesterol Behavioral effects ESTROGENS Reproductive Tissues Vaginal Mammary Gland Decreases resorption Increases coagulability Maintains normal Reduces bowel motility Sperm transport Transport Proteins Ovarian Non-reproductive Tissues

Estrogen on the Breast (Mammogenesis) Causes: Development of stromal tissue Growth of an extensive ductal system Deposition of fat in the breasts Inhibits the actual secretion of milk Promotes development of lobules and alveoli Causes alveolar proliferat ion , enlarge & become secretory in nature Does not cause alveoli to secrete milk (actually inhibits the secretion of milk), milk is secreted only after the prepared breast is further stimulated by prolactin . Development of alveoli and lobules brought about by estrogens is slight. Progesterone and prolactin causes the determinative growth and function of these structures. Therefore, estrogens initiate growth and is responsible for the characteristic external appearance of the mature female breast, but they do n’ t complete converting the breasts into milk producing organs.

Mammogenesis or mammary gland development begins during the 7-8 week of gestation when primary and secondary ducts develop. Mammary gland development during childhood is limited to general growth. At puberty, estrogen becomes the major influence on breast growth in a girl, when primary and secondary ducts grow and divide along with an increase in the number of and development of lobuloalveolar units. Breast changes continue to occur during each menstrual cycle in response to the changes in hormones. Complete development of mammary function occurs only in pregnancy.

With the beginning of female puberty, however, the release of estrogen, at first alone, and then in combination with progesterone when the ovaries functionally mature, cause the breasts to undergo dramatic changes which culminate in the fully mature form. This process on average takes 3 to 4 years and is usually complet by age 16 years .

However Estrogen could be metabolized and have Cancerogenic or Tumorogenic effect

Testes: Seminiferous tubules: Contain receptor proteins for FSH in Sertoli cells. FSH stimulates spermatogenesis to occur. Leydig cells: LH stimulates secretion of testosterone. Contain receptor proteins for LH. 6b) TESTOSTERON

Control of LH and FSH Secretion Negative feedback: Testosterone inhibits LH and GnRH production. Maintain relatively constant secretion of LH and FSH. Declines gradually in men over 50 years of age. Testosterone converted to DHT, which inhibits LH. Inhibin inhibits FSH secretion. Aromatization reaction producing estradiol in the brain, is required for the negative feedback effects.

Endocrine Function of the Testes T estosterone and its derivatives are responsible for initiation and mainte - nance of body changes in puberty. Stimulate growth of muscles, larynx, and bone growth until sealing of the piphyseal discs. Promote hemoglobin synthesis. As paracrine for spermatogenesis . Estrogen Secretion Sertoli and Leydig cells secrete small amounts of estradiol . Receptors found in Sertoli and Leydig cells and accessory organs. May be responsible for: Negative feedback in brain. Sealing of epiphyseal plates. Regulatory function in fertility.

The overall function of Testosteron Testosteron Target Organ

The hormone decrease with advancing age, but E2 increase Age-related alterations of hormonal profiles in males with age. Note that the progressive rise in FSH and LH begins prior to a drop in testosteron levels. This believe to be due to the progressive loss of hypothalamic sensitivity to feedback inhibition by testosteron
