Effects of insulin

Glucose transport into skeletal muscle and adipose tissue


Increased glycogen synthesis and storage

Increased protein synthesis


Decreased glucagon release


Increased sodium retention


Increased cellular uptake of K+ and AAs

mechanism of insulin release from B cells

Glucose enters cells via GLUT 2


Glucose converted to ATP


ATP binds to K channel and blocks it


Intracellular K increases; membrane depolarizes

Stimulation of insulin exocytosis

Actions of glucagon

Glycogenolysis


Gluconeogenesis

why use glucagon in B-blocker OD?

↑ cAMP

Actions of PRL

* Mammary gland develop, milk production
* Galactotropic: maintains milk production after it's been established

Inhibits GnRH secretion--> amenorrhea, oligospermia

Control of thyroid hormone production

Increases with TRH


Decreases with Somatostatin

What does GHRH increase?

GH


ACTH


PRL

What is Bromocriptine?

DA agonist used in the treatment of prolactinoma

Actions of growth hormone

Think turning fat into muscle


- lipolysis


- protein synthesis


- glucose uptake ↑ in mm, ↓ in adipocytes

Regulation of GH

Increases with sleep, exercise


Decreases with glucose, somatostatin (via somatomedin)

Functions of ADH:


V1


V2

V1: blood pressure


V2: serum osmolarity

Treatment for central DI

Desmopressin

What does anastrazole do?

Aromatase inhibitor

What does finasteride do?

5alpha reductase inhibitor

Sx of 21-hydroxylase deficiency

- Masculinization


- Hypotension


- Salt wasting


- increased K+


- Increased renin activity

Sx of 11B hydroxylase deficiency

- HTN


- Masculinization (less so than 21 hydroxylase def.)


- Decreased renin activity

Sx of 17a hydroxylase deficiency

- HTN


- pseudohermaphroditism (no sex hormones) (phenotypic female who can't mature)

Actions of cortiol

BIGFIB



Blood pressure increase


Insulin resistance


Gluconeogenesis increase


Fibroblast activity decrease


Inflammatory/immune response decrease


Bone formation decreased

MOA of increased BP with cortisol

Upregulates a1 receptors on arterioles

Why do glucocorticoids cause increased WBCs?

They reduce WBC adhesion and cause release of marginated neutrophils

3 forms of plasma Ca

ionized (45%)


Bound to albumin (40%)


Bound to anions (15%)

How do increases in pH causes changes in [Ca]?

decreased pH = ↑ H+ ions, which compete with Ca on albumin.


- Hypercalcemia



Increased pH = ↑ affinity of albumin for Ca


- Hypocalcemia


- Pain, paresthesias, carpopedal spasms


Describe how PTH acts on ostoclasts

Increases production of M-CSF and RANKL


RANKL from osteoblasts and osteocytes binds RANK on osteoclasts and their precursors to stimulate osteoclasts and ↑ Ca2+

Regulation of PTH secretion

Increases PTH:


- Decreased serum Ca


- Increased serum PO4


- Decreased serum Mg (diuretics, EtOH, AGs, diarrhea)



Very low Mg decreases PTH

How can malignancy alter calcium levels?

Squamous cell cancers, RCC, breast mets: via PTrP



MM via IL-1

Most common cause of hyperparathyroidism

solitary parathyroid adenoma

What hormones use receptor-associated TK?

PIGGlET


Prolactin


Immunomodulators


GH


G-CSF


EPO


Thrombopoietin



Use the JAK/STAT pathway

Difference between JACK/STAT and intrinsic TK pathway

JAK/STAT: translocates to nucleus


Intrinsic MAP: Mediated by SH2. Downstream signals involving MAP kinase

Functions of T3

Brain maturation


Bone growth


B-adrenergic effects
