Ions, small solutes, lipid solubule materials use gap junctions for this type of communication

direct

This type of communication is used by ions, small solutes, lipid soluble materials

Direc

This communication occurs through extracellular fluid and involves paracrine factors

paracrine

This communication is limited to a local area, where paracrine factor concentrations are relatively high. Target cells must have appropriate receptors

Paracrine

This communication occurs through the blood stream and involves hormones

Endocrine

This communication targes cells primarily in other tissues and organs and must have appropriate receptors

Endocrine

This communication occurs across synapses via neurotrasmitters

Synaptic

This communication is limited to a very specific area, target cells that have appropriate receptors

synaptic

Three types of hormones are:

Amino acid


peptide


Lipid Derivatives

Examples of amino hormones

Tyrosine and Tryptohan

Examples of peptide hormones

glycoprotiens and short polypeptides

Examples of Lipid protiens

Eicosanoids and Steroid hormones



What three mechanisms does the hypothalmus use to control endocrine system

Production of OXT and ADH


Secretion of regulatory hormones


Control of Synpathetic output to adrenal gland

This ________ is an endocrine gland with _________ and _______ lobes and is called _________.

anterior


posterior


hypophysis

The anterior lobe of the pitutary gland is _________ and has three regions called ________,


___________ and ____________.

adenohypophysis


Pars tuberalis


Pars intermedia


Pas distalis

The capillaries in the median eminence of the hypothalmus are supplied by the _________

fenestrated capilliaries

Blood vessels that link two capillary networks are called_________. The hypothalmus portal system is called ______________.

portal


Hypophyseal

What are the two hypothalmic regulatory hormones called______________

Release and inhibiting hormones

What type of Hypothalmic hormone stimulates production by other glands

releasing

TSH

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone aka Thyrotropin

TRH

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone

TSH is relased in response to what form the hypothalmus

TRH

ACTH

Adrenocorticotropic hormone aka Corticotropin

This stimulates the release of steroid hormones by the adrenal gland_____________ and targests _____________ that affect glucose metabolism. ___________ from the hypothalmus stimulates this steroid hormone.

ACTH


glucocorticoids


Corticotropin releasing hormones

This _____________ regulates the gonads.

Gonadotrophins

The hypothalamus releases the hormone _________ which stimulates production of (GnRH)

Gonadotrophin

Low production of Gonadotrophin is called

Hypogonadism

Children with Hypogonadism do not mature ________ and adults cannot produce functional __________.

Sexually


Sperm

The two gonardotropins are

Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)


Luteinizing Hormone (LH)

LH

Luteinizing Hormone

FSH

Follicle Stimulating Hormone

PRL

Prolactin

TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH, GH, PRL and MSH are released are controlled by the ___________ and are released from what lobe of the pituitary gland _________ and are considered what type of hormones.

hypothalmus


anterior lope


releasing

This hormone induces ovulations and promotes secretion of what two hormones

LH


estrogen


progestrogen

Male sex hormones stimulated by LH are called

adrogens

This stimulates mammary gland development and stimulates milk production

PRL aka prolactin

GH

growth hormone aka somatrtropin

This hormone stimulates growth and repair by acceleration the rate of protien synthesis.

GH

This stimulates breakdown of adipocytes, Stem cell division and in liver breakdown of Glycogen

GH

Production of GH is regulated by

Growth releasing hormone (GHRH) and growth inhibiting hormone (GHIH)

The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland is called the ____________ contains axons of ______________

Neurohypophusis


hypothalmic neurons

Neurons of the posterior pituitary manufacture what two hormones ______

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)


Oxytocin (OXT)



ADH is aka

vasopressin (VP)

alcohol inhibits __________ release

ADH



This stimulates idoine transport into folicle cells and stimulates release of thyroid hormones

THS



90% of all thyroid secretions are

T4



alled About 75% of T4 molecules and 70% of T3 Molecules enter the blood stream and become attached to transport protiens

Thyroid binding Globulins (TBGS)
