n hormoneexcess syndromes, a variety of approaches are used. ? Hyperfuctioning tumors are removed or destroyed with radiotherapy when possible, and sometimes hyperplastic glands are removed. ? In other cases drugs are given to block hormone production and release, such as methimazole/propylthiouracil for thyrotoxicosis and cabergoline/bromocriptine for prolactinproducing adenomas. ? Antagonists such as spironolactone can some times be useful in primary aldosteronism due to hyperplasia. 。Disorders of endocrine and metabolic system Wang xinjun(王新軍) Department of endocrinology Hainan medical college MP: 18789826999 Definitions and scope of endocrinology ? Classical endocrinology(經(jīng)典內(nèi)分泌學(xué)) is the study of endocrine glands which are a group of glands in the body secreting hormones to evoke a specific response in other cells of the body.

With development, the definition and scope of investigative and clinical endocrinology continues to expand. ? For example: heart, kidney, adipose tissue ? Components of the endocrine and metabolic systems Architectural and functional properties of endocrine and metabolic system Endocrine system Endocrine system consists of two main parts: ? Endocrine glands ? Sporadic endocrine tissues and cells in nonendocrine an Hypothalamuspituitarytarget gland Hypothalamuspituitary ? anterior pituitary releases six hormones: ACTH、 TSH、 FSH、 LH、 PRL、 GH ? posterior pituitary releases two hormones that are actually produced in the hypothalamus: 1. antidiuretic hormone (ADH) acts on the kidneys to conserve water and also promotes constriction of blood vessels. 2. oxytocin stimulates uterine contractions and promotes milk “l(fā)etdown” in the breasts during lactation.
