Water soluble hormones circulate throughout body unbound or bound?

unbound…bc they are WATER soluble…they don't need to be on a carrier protein to float around. Lipid soluble hormones are bound to carrier proteins...

receptors for hormones are? and where are they found

proteins


ON the plasma membrane…INSIDE the cytosol, or in the nucleus.

what are the second messengers you know of?

cAMP, cGMP, calcium


these activate certain regulatory proteins…what are they?: cAMP: adenylyl cyclase, cGMP: guanayyl cyclase, calcium: calmodulin

lipid soluble hormones act?

they can bind to the plasma protein or they can do directly into the nucleus

hypothalamus regulates many hormones including: dopamine which inhibits ____, CRH which releases ____ and substance P which inhibits ____

prolactin…, ACTH and endorphins, acth

ADH does what?

yea it holds water in …but how? by increasing serum osmolalaity.

hormones of anterior pitutitary

AM LFT P.G. ACTH, MSH, LH, FSH, TSH, PROLACTIN, GROWTH HORMONE.

WHAT IS ONE of the ways TSH makes TH to make

stimulating uptake of iodine intracellular

the thyroid gland is made of ____ which also have _ cells that release____ and __ hromones

follicles, C, somatostatin, calcitonin (odd fact, if calcitonin is high or low doesn't do anything to humans….)

islets of langerhans have what type of cells

alpha, beta, delta, and F cells

beta cells make the ____ in pancreas

insulin

alpha cells make ___ in pancreas

glucagon

incretin hromones do what

if sugar high in body they will secrete insulin, but inhibit glucagon synthesis, and delay gastric emptying

delta cells

>>>stops glucagon and insulin somatostatin

adrenal medulla secretes? and adrenal cortex secretes?

medulla-catecholamines; epi/norepi


cortex- steroid hormones (aldosterone, adrenal androgens, estrogens) all made of ??? cholesterol

glucocorticoids

2 MAIN FUNCTIONS: 1. immuno supression2.) anti inflmaatory = cortisol is a glucocorticoid

mineralcorticoids

aldosterone….are steroid hormones…..keep na//lose K

SIADH

tOOOO MUCH ADH (usually from some tumor that keeps secreting ADH)


DI- too little ADH

IN siadh IF YOU HAVE too much ADH…u are holding in a lot of water right/ this leads to what?

hyponatremia/hypomolaity

DI can be neurogenic/nehphrogenic..what does that mean

(principal feautre---polyuria/polydipsia, not able to concentrate urine)neurogenic…is what the disease is….not enough ADH…nephrogenic means NOT GOOD ENOUGH RESPONSE to ADH….

dipsogenic DI

when upkeep drinking a lot of water to the point you will drop ADH below normal

hypopituitarism

dysfunction of ANTERIOR pituitary…not working well enough….ss/ depends on which hormone is not working

hyperpituitarism

anterior pituitary has tumor….pushes on other structures….causing HYPOsecretino of certain hormones…interesting

too much GROWTH hormone? in adults and children causes

adults- acromegaly


children- gigantism


these ppple have prolonged high levels of GH can cause screw up in connective tissue. all systems delveop SLOWLY.. (renal, cardiac), etc.

GRaves disease manifestations… (we know how this occurs…)

hyperthyroidism caused by autoimmune response…antibodies stick to th receptors and prevent negative feedback…..


ss: thyroid enlargement, enlargement of extra ocular muscles, pretrial myxedema (swelling of legs/hands)

autoimmune thyroidits (Hashimotos disease)

the thyroid tissue gets destroyed slowly by lymphocyte infiltration, antibody activation of natural killer cells, and apoptosis; this is HYPOTHYROIDISM and u may still see a goiter

subacute thyroidits

first the follicular cells are damaged…causingHYPERthyroidism due to the leak of T3 AND T 4 = hyperthyroidism


then hypothyroidism happens….so this is classified as a hypothyroidism and it is nonbacterial

secondary hypothyroidism

hypothalmus and pituitary dysfunction= TSH not making enough in body

hypothyroidism main ss

low metabolism and low heat production (always cold)

myxedema is characteristic sign of?

HYPOthyroidism

myxedema is?

what it is says…EDEMA… caused MAINLY in hypothyroidism ….of legs and sometime shands...

what is a myxedema coma

a medical emergency…..of hypothyroidism

what kind of carcinoma is common of the thyroid

papillary/follicular

primary hyperparathyroidism is usually caused by??

a tumor….and this will manifest as TOO MUCH chronic calcium in body…and increased bone reabsorption, and increased calcium in urine thats how much calcium is floating around

calcium and______ have ___ relationship

phosphate ;inverse

which other hormone is insulins sidekick

amylin it has 3 functions


it stops glucagon from forming and breaking down


it keeps u full after meals


and after meals it helps slow down gastric motility….therefore, if the food stays in the stomach longer then it will slowly enter blood stream also

ghrelin and who does the opposite action

ghrelin is secreted in gi cells when ur stomach is hungry….therefore, it will cause u to eat….and increases gastric acid secretion, etc. it is in the hypothalamus

leptin has opposite effect..it makes u feel FULL AND GHRELIN

secreted when u are hungry

insulin resistance is associated with increased/decreased ghrelin

decreased

somogyi effect...

basically u take some insulin at night with dinner, and in middle of night around 3 am …bs will be low, then the body reacts and releases stress hormones causes the blood glucose to rise at 7am…..it will be high! you may want to increase NPH but its dangerous to patient..so measure ….treatment…decrease dose NPH…..so then body doesn't have to compensate

dawn phenomenon

high blood glucose early in the morning due to growth hormone secretion in am!!!!!! thats..all…but how do u differentiate between this and somogyi? the 3AM blood glucose…will be normal here in the dawn phenomenon ….everything is normally going until 7 am….but with somogoyi at 3 am the blood sugar is LOW; TREATMENT FOR dawn? increase NPH...

DKA can occur in both types of diabetes?

yes

microvascular complications from dm are associated with

endothelial alterations and basement membrane alterations s well as thrombosis

describe the feedback loop of cortisol

hypothalamus>>>CRH>>pituitary gland>>> ACTCH>>>>adrenal gland>>>cortisol>>

cushiness disease

excessive acth= too much cortisol = immunosupression

too much adrenal medulla function =?

pheochromocyotoma usually causes this, which is a catecholamine producing tumor…so ss of SNS; palpitations, constipation, hypertension, glucose intolerance….
