Pars Nervosa
The tissue that constitutes the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary)
Pars Intermedia
The tissue that separates the two lobes of the hypophysis (pituitary)
Pars Distalis
The tissue that constitutes the adenohypophysis (anterior pituitary)
Follicular Cells of Thyroid
Simple cuboidal epithelium; secretes thyroid hormone
Parafollicular Cells of Thyroid
Cells that are located between the follicles; synthesize, secrete, and store calcitonin
Thyroid Colloid
Thick fluid that fills the interior of thyroid follicles; made of tyrosine; stores thyroid hormone
Chief Cells (Principal Cells)
Cells that produce parathyroid hormone
Zona Glomerulosa
Outermost of layer of adrenal cortex; produces mineralcorticoids (mainly aldosterone)
Zona Fasciculata
Middle layer of adrenal cortex; produces glucocorticoids
Zona Reticularis
Deepest layer of adrenal cortex; produces gonadocortioids
Adrenal Medulla
Deepest layer of adrenal gland; produces epinephrine and norepinephrine
Acini
Cells that secrete enzymes in the pancreas for digestion
Sertoli Cells (Nurse Cells)
Cells that produce sperm
Leydig Cells
Cells that produce testosterone
Ovarian Follicle
Fluid filled sac that contains an immature egg
Pineal Gland
Gland that secretes melatonin
Hypophysis (Pituitary Gland)
Gland that secretes growth and reproduction hormones as well as neurotransmitters
Hypothalamus
The "overlord"; coordinates autonomic nervous system and hypophysis (pituitary) function
Thymus
Gland in the thoracic cavity above the heart where T lymphocytes mature
Thyroid
Gland that produces hormones that regulate metabolism, body heat, and bone growth
Parathyroid Glands
Gland(s) that produces parathyroid hormone
Adrenal Glands
Gland(s) that produces adrenocortical steroids
Testes
Organ(s) that produces testosterone and sperm
Ovaries
Organ(s) that produces estrogen & progesterone as well as eggs
Kidneys
Organ(s) that secrete calcitriol, erythropoietin, and renin
Spleen
Organ near the stomach that produces, stores, and eliminates blood cells
Erythrocytes
Cells that transport oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood stream
Neutrophils
First responder; engulfs invading pathogens
Eosinophils
Increased in allergic reactions and parasitic infections; reduces inflammation at injury site.
Basophils
Produces histamine and heparin; rarest white blood cell
Monocytes
2x as big as RBC's. Becomes macrophages; engulfs pathogens, old cells, and any other debris. Stimulates other white blood cells.
Lymphocytes
3 Types: B cells - produce antibodies T cells - destroy cells with antigens NK cells - fight cancer
Thrombocytes
Cells that transport chemicals for clotting process; form temporary patches in damaged blood vessel walls
Sickle Cell
An abnormal RBC that is crescent shaped and produces abnormal hemoglobin - this prevents it from transporting gasses efficiently.
