Neuroendocrine Integration Open Access

Neuroendocrine cells are cells that receive neuronal input (neurotransmitters released by nerve cells or neurosecretory cells) and, as a consequence of this input, release message molecules (hormones) into the blood. during this way they carry about an integration between the systema nervosum and therefore the system , a process referred to as neuroendocrine integration. An example of a neuroendocrine cell may be a cell of the medulla (innermost a part of the adrenal gland), which releases adrenaline to the blood. The adrenal medullary cells are controlled by the sympathetic division of the autonomic systema nervosum . These cells are modified postganglionic neurons. Autonomic nerve fibers lead on to them from the central systema nervosum . The adrenal medullary hormones are kept in vesicles much within the same way neurotransmitters are kept in neuronal vesicles. Hormonal effects can last up to 10 times longer than those of neurotransmitters.[citation needed] Sympathetic nerve fibre impulses stimulate the discharge of adrenal medullary hormones. during this way the sympathetic division of the autonomic systema nervosum and therefore the medullary secretions function together.
