What cell secretes dopamine?
Some sources claim adrenal medulla is responsible. Apparently there are three types of cells in the adrenal medulla: one for epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine respectively. The hypothalamus also secretes dopamine. More than likely other cells secrete dopamine as well.
How many types of hormones secreted through testis?
The male testes secrete two different types of hormones. The first hormone that is secreted through the testes is the reproductive hormone. The second hormone that is secreted from the testes is the endocrine hormone secretions.
Pancreatic enzymes digest all types of fluids after they are secreted into the?
esophogus
What is the purpose of an aldosterone assay?
Aldosterone measurement is useful in detecting a condition called aldosteronism, which is caused by excess secretion of the hormone from the adrenal glands. There are two types of aldosteronism: primary and secondary.
What are the different types of nephrons?
Juxtamedullary Nephron: renal corpuscles close to the base of renal medulla (long loop of Henle and long thin segments that extends in the inner region of renal pyramid) Coritcal Nephron: renal corpuscles in the outer part of the renal cortex (short loop of Henle and hairpin turn in the thick segment) Intermediate Nephron: renal corpuscles in the mid-region of renal cortex (intermediate lenght loop of Henle)

What is a probable etiology of cushing syndrome?
The most common cause for Cushing's syndrome is iatrogenic, meaning it is a side effect of a medication given by their doctor, but it could also be caused by Cushing's disease (a pituitary adenoma), adrenal gland tumors, or due to hormones secreted by certain types of cancers.

Which cell produces steroid?
The Endocrine cells produce steroids. Everything in the first answer is correct but I would like to elaborate some. Hormones from the adrenal cortex function to the bodies response of stress. Yet, the adrenal medulla reacts to nervous input. Thus, the stressful stimuli causes the hypothalamus to secrete a releasing hormone to stimulate the anterior pituitary gland to release the tropic hormone ACTH. When the ACTH reaches the adrenal cortex via the bloodstream, it then will stimulate the ENDOCRINE CELLS too synthesize and secrete a family of steroids called corticosteroids.In different cases of negative feedback, the elevated levels of corticosteroids in the blood will supress the secretion of ACTH. This is just a minor elaboration to the first answer below. There are a few locations within the body where the organ's respective cells produce steroid hormones. The adrenal glands, more specifically, the adrenal cortex portion of the adrenal glands, produce several types of steroid hormones. These are a paired set of endocrine glands which rest on top of the kidneys and the structures consist of the mentioned adrenal cortex which surrounds the innermost adrenal medulla. There are three layers that compose the adrenal cortex, and each secrete different steroid hormones... The outermost layer of the cortex is called the zona glomerulosa, which primarily produces aldosterone. The middle layer of the cortex is called the zona fasciculata, which produces cortisol. The innermost layer of the cortext is called the zona reticularis, which produces various types of sex hormones such as testosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone (precursor to estrogen).
Where is bone marrow produce?
Bone marrow is a soft tissue that is produced inside the bones. There are two types of bone marrow, medulla ossium rubra and medulla ossium flava.
What are relexin hormone?
relaxin hormones are secreted by female gonds (female sex hormones) .there are three types of hormones which are secreted by female gonds. these are 1 progesterone 2 oestrogen 3 relaxin hormone
What is the function of the epinephrine hormone?
Epinephrine is one of the most powerful vasopressor (causing a rise in blood pressure) drugs known. It increases the strength of heart muscle contractions as well as the heart rate, and it constricts blood vessels and veins. Because it is a powerful heart stimulant, it is used in emergency medicine to restore heart rhythm in cases of shock and in certain cases of cardiac arrest (heart attack). The most common use of epinephrine in medicine is to relieve breathing distress in patients with asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema. The synthetic catecholamine isoproterenol is also used in the treatment of these diseases. Epinephrine is a powerful bronchodilator, meaning it relaxes bronchial muscle. It also constricts pulmonary vessels (in the lung), and inhibits the release of histamines triggered by allergic reactions. As a bronchodilator it is most often inhaled by mouth as a spray or through another breathing apparatus. Epinephrine is also used on the skin or mucous membranes to control bleeding of wounds because it constricts blood vessels. It is sometimes used for the same reason during surgery of the nose, throat, and larynx, where it also shrinks mucosa (membranes that secrete slime), making surgery easier. Epinephrine increases metabolism, accelerates blood coagulation, and lowers pressure inside the eye in some types of glaucoma.
Which glands located on top of the kidneys are important because they produce hormones that?
The adrenal glands are above each kidney. They are divided into two parts the cortex and the medulla. The cortex is responsible for secreting steroid hormones of which there are three types: Corticosteroids i.e.cortisol, which control glucose levels in the body Mineralocorticoids i.e. aldosterone, which regulate the mineral balance Sex hormones, i.e. androgens, (testosterone and oestrogen) which are responsible for sexual charaterisctics The medulla or inner section secretes two hormones, adrenalin and nor-adrenaline which create conditions in the body for the 'flight', 'fight' & 'fright' mechanism.
What is the connective tissues that produces red and white blood cells?
The connective tissue that produces red and white blood cells is known as bone marrow. There are two types of bone marrow, which are known as medulla ossium flava and medulla ossium rubra.
What are exosomes?
Exosomes are small membrane vesicles of endocytic origin secreted by most cell types, and are thought to play important roles in intercellular communications.
