The combination of an endocrine gland and a hormone is a working endocrine gland that has a chemical messenger called a hormone. The hormone can be either manufactured by that gland itself, a stored hormone that another gland made, or it can be a positive or negative feedback hormone as part of the hormonal control system.

A hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source?
An example of a hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source is thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH is released by the hypothalamus and acts on the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which in turn acts on the thyroid gland to regulate thyroid hormone production.
Define the difference between primary and secondary endocrine pathology?
Primary endocrine pathology refers to dysfunction within an endocrine gland itself, causing abnormal hormone production. Secondary endocrine pathology results from dysfunction in the pituitary gland or hypothalamus, leading to inadequate stimulation or suppression of hormone production in the target endocrine gland.
What gland secretes one or more hormones into the bloodstream?
The endocrine gland secretes hormones directly into the bloodstream. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal glands.
What would be the name of the endocrine gland that is stimulated by thyrotrophic hormone?
The endocrine gland that is stimulated by thyrotrophic hormone (also known as thyroid-stimulating hormone or TSH) is the thyroid gland. TSH helps regulate the production and release of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) from the thyroid gland, which play a crucial role in metabolism, growth, and development in the body.
Growth hormone is secreted by what gland?
Growth hormone is secreted by the pituitary gland, specifically the anterior pituitary. It plays a key role in regulating growth, metabolism, and body composition.
Is a endocrine gland a hormone?
The endocrine gland itself is not a hormone, though secretes hormones.
Is the thyroid gland an endocrine gland?
Yes! a thyroid gland IS an endocrine gland
What is the chemical made in the endocrine gland?
Hormone
Why endocrine hormone not store in body?
this are not stored because the endocrine gland directly eject the hormone into the blood
What is the name of the cycle where an endocrine gland releases a hormone that stimulates a target organ to send a message back to the endocrine gland to reduce the section of the hormone?
negative feedback cycle
Which endocrine gland secretes a hormone that regulates ion levels in neurons?
Pituitary Gland
Which endocrine gland controlys your metabolism?
The thyroid gland controls your metabolism with the hormone thyroxine.
What is the hormone produced by the endocrine gland that is located below the brain?
follicle stimulating hormone
What is having deficient hormone production by an endocrine gland?
hypoadrenalism
A hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source?
An example of a hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source is thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH is released by the hypothalamus and acts on the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which in turn acts on the thyroid gland to regulate thyroid hormone production.

Primary endocrine pathology refers to dysfunction within an endocrine gland itself, causing abnormal hormone production. Secondary endocrine pathology results from dysfunction in the pituitary gland or hypothalamus, leading to inadequate stimulation or suppression of hormone production in the target endocrine gland.
Why isn't the neurohypophysis or posterior lobe of the pituitary gland a true endocrine gland?
It is only a hormone storage area that receives hormones from the hypothalamus for release. Since it does not make its own secretions (it only stores the neuroendocrine hormones made by the hypothalamus) it is not considered a true endocrine gland.
