The myelin sheath on a neuron:

Beta cells in the islets of Langerhans make insulin, which lowers blood glucose. Alpha cells make glucagon.

At a synapse, a neurotransmitter crosses the gap to pass the signal to the next cell.
Thyroxine, from the thyroid gland, sets the speed of metabolism in most body cells.
