Endocrine Affects on Other Body Systems By: Derek and Joe
Integumentary • Protects superficial endocrine organs • Epidermis synthesizes cholecalciferol (See Key Terms) • Sex hormones stimulate sebacous gland, influence hair growth, fat distrurbution, sweat gland, and stimulates mammary glands
Skeletal • Protects endocrine organs, mostly in brian, chest, and pelvic cavity • Skeletal growth is stimulated by serveral endocrine hormones • Sex hormones speed up growth during puberty
Muscular System • Skeletal muscle protect and cover some endocrine organs • Hormones adjust muscle metabolism energy and production, and growth
Nervous • Hypothalamic hormones directly control pituitary and indirectly control secretions of other endocrine organs • Many hormones affect neural metabolism, and the reproductive systems influence and development
Cardiovascular • Distributes hormones through blood stream • Regulates production of RBC, evaluate blood pressure, and heart rate
Lymphatic • Provides defense against infection and with other WBCs, assist in repair after injury • Stimulates lymphocytes and aids in the affect of the immune system
Respiratory • Provides O2 and eliminates CO2 generated by the endocrine system • Stimulates respiratory activity and dilate reparatory passageways
Digestive • Provides nutrients and substrates to endocrine cells • Stimulates constriction of sphincters and depress activity along digestive tract • Coordinate secretory activities along tract
Urinary • Release renin and erythropoietin when local blood pressure declines and produces calcitriol • Adjusts rates of fluid and electrolyte reabsorption in kidneys
Reproductive • Suppresses secretory activities in hypothalamus and pituitary gland • Regulates sexual development and function • Stimulates mammary gland smooth muscle contractions
