lipid sol. hormomes
-carrier protien
-diffuse through plas. mem. and bind to nuclear rec.
-androgens, gluco.cort., mineralcort., TH
water sol. hormones
-free and unbound
-bind to cell surface receptor
-insulin, PH, PATH
thyroid gland
-release TRH to trigger TSh to tell TG to release TH. to increase engery and metabolism.-T3 precursor to T4
-Calcitonin- decreae CA levels
Parathryoid horomone
-controls serum CA levels
-Low blood CA causes increase
-High CA and MG cause a decrease
Endocrine Pancreas
-responsible for metabolism
-diabetes mellitus common disorder
-Langherna cells
A= glucagon B=inslulin D=somoatstin and gastrin
insulin
-decreases glucose levels
glucagon
increased by low glucose levels inhibits by high
somatostatin
produed by D cells
essentaila in the met. of fats carbs; and proteins
adrenal glands
adrenal cortex and medulla
adrenal cortex
-glucocorticoids=effect car. met. (cortisol imp. in stress)
-mineralocorticoids=(aldosterone- aids in conservation of sodium)
-Renin relasese ang. 1 to get ang.2 which relases Ald.
adrenal medulla
epinephrine (adrenaline)
norep. (noradrenline)
posterior pituitary
ADH-
oxytocin- lactation and contractions
ADH hypersecretioin
SIADH
-fluid retention and weight gain
-hyponatremia (NA levels diluted)
-restrict fluids treat cause
ADH hyposecretion
-Diabetes insipidus
-polyuria
-polydypsia
-weight loss

-give meds and I O
(Post Pit)
Anteriorior pit gland disorders
gigantism- overproduce GH
Acromelagy- bones get wider and thicker
thryoid gland disorders
-goiter, hyper, hypo, storm, mydexema

all disorders of TH
hyperthyroidism
-high TH
-Graves/ Hashimotos
-autoimmune
-exopthalmos (big eyes), goite=
hyperthoridism Thyroid storm
-cuased by stressors
-acute but rare, life threat emerg.
-shock, high temp tachy.
hypothryoidism
low TH
-Prmary cause- destruciton of thyoid tissue. Iodine def., atrophy of thy. gland (most com. in US.)
-Secondary- inadeq. secretion of TSH from pit. due to disease or hypothal. failure
-symptoms vague memory imparemtn. fatigue lethargy
-low t3/4 levels
-treat with thy. replacemtn
Myexedema (Hypothryoidism)
chronic
-medical emergyencey
-treat w/ TH iv
-low temp w/ out shivering
parathyroid gland
regluates vit d and calcium
hyper PTH
-increase PTH
-hypercalcemia w/ hyppohsph.
-primary beinign neoplasm
secondary hypocalcemia
tert. hyperplasia of PT gland
-patholgic fractures
hypo PTH
low PTH
-accidental removal of PT
-hypocalcemia
-treat w/ calcium salts
Addison's
-aderenal insuffisency-
-doesnt produce enough steroids
-weakness, orthostatic hypotension
cushings
excess glucocorticoids (cortisol)
-cause = exogenous - admin. prednisone
endogenous- ACTh secreting PH (cushings disease) or adrenal tumor
-weight gain fat in face
pheochromocytoma
neoplasm of trhe adrenal medulla which produeces excessive Catecholamines (ep. norep.)
-tream w/ remove tumor

glycosylated hemoglobin
lab test, used for treatment, see if someone has been treating their diabetes well or just behvaing when its almost check up time
type 1 diabates
-10 % have a first degree relative w/ it
-lack of insulin and excess of glucagon
type 2 diabetes
-more common than type 1
-most patients are obsese
-insulin resistance w/ inadequate insulin secretion
