What are the neurons of the nervous system?

Neurons (=nerve cells) are the structural and functional unit of the neural tissue and hence the nervous system. Certain neurons may almost equal the length of the body itself. These neurons with longer processes (projections) are the longest cells in the body. Human neural system has about 100 billion neurons. Majority of the neurons occur i the brain. Fully formed neurons never divide and remain in the interphase throughout life. Shortly after birth, new neurons dont develop. Certain neurons have flask shaped cytons (cell body or soma) and are called Purkinje cells, which occur in the cerebellum of the brain.

What hormones are produced and released by neurons in the brain rather that by the endocrine glands?

ity is messiephobia lol A hormone, wherever it is formed, that is delivered to the target tissue via the blood is called an endocrine (endo = within + crine = to secrete) hormone. They may be or protein or steroid structure. Neurons that make hormones are located in the hypothalamus. The hormones produced are oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone which are stored in the posterior pituitary (neurohypothalamus). They are still distributed as the other endocrine hormones are.
