T4 vs T3
1. T4 more abudant 2. T3 more biologically active 3. T3 metabolized more quickly than T4
thyrotropin actions
stim Iodide uptake, syn and sec thyroglobulin, endocytosis and proteolysis of thyroglobulin, sec t3 and t4, inc blood flow, inc transcr of thyroperoxidase and thyroglobulin genes
types of hypothyroidism
Endemic, myxedema (adults), cretinism (fetal)
types of hyperthyroidism
Toxic nodular goitre, grave's, carcinoma, thyrotoxicosis
clinical presentation of cretinism
Mental retardation, growth retardation, sluggishness
myxedema clinical presentation
Lethargy, pale puffy skin, cold intolerance, bradycardia, weight gain, mental impairment
Rx for hypothyroidism
T4 (oral, for chronic replacement) T3 (no chronic, for myxedemic coma)
ENDEMIC GOITRE
low I and compensatory thyroid hypertrophy, prev by giving them I, treat w/ thyroxine and I supplement
symptoms of Thyrotoxicosis
Nervousness, tremor, heat intolerance, tachy, weightloss, decr cholesterol, increase food intake
Thyroid storm (extreme toxicosis)
Fever, tachy, a fib, agitation, delerium, coma, vomiting, diarrhea
causes of hyperthyroidism
thyroid hormone ingestion, diffuse toxic goiter, hyperfunctioning adenoma, toxic multinodular goiter, painless thyroiditis, subacute thyroiditis, thyroid stimulating hormone - secreting adenoma, HCG-secreting tumors
TREATMENT OF HYPERTHYROIDISM
Anti-thyroid drugs, irradiation, surgery
THIOUREYLENES (propylthiouracil and methimazole)
inhib thyroperoxidase and conversion of t4 to t3 (long term treatment, in conjunction w/ irradiation, prior to surgical treatment)
PTU vs MMI
PTU may act more rapidly by inhibiting peripheral deiodination, MMI crosses placenta and milk, PTU shorter half life
IODINE MOA
Inhibits release of thyroxine from thyroglobulin, inhib organifiction, dec gland size and vascularity, antagonize thioureylenes and radioiodine, rapid onset and escape phenomenon, not for long term
IODINE clinical uses
Preoperative preparation for thyroidectomy, use after radio therapy, protection after radio exposure, treatment of endemic goitre
radioiodide
diagnosis (small amount) and ablation therapy cause hypothyroid
SYMPATHOLYTICS
beta blocker, adrenergic neuron blocker, contraindicated for DM and airway obstruction
things that inhibit osteoclasts
estrogen calcitonin bisphosphonates
things that activate osteoclasts
interleukin -1 , TNF, PTH
pulsatile vs continuous PTH
Intermittent – stimulates bone growth
continious - bone resorption
Therapeutic indication for PTH
Osteoporosis
Physiological actions of calcitriol:
Increases intestinal CA2+ and phosphate absorption
CLINICAL uses of Vit D (ergocalciferol and calcitriol)
rickets,osteomalacia,Vit D deficiency due to malabsorb and liver disease, hypocalcemia (low pth) osteodystrophy, osteoporosis
CALCITONIN
inhib osteoclast, dec renal abs of Ca and PO4, treat hypercalcemia and osteroporosis, side effects: Nausea vomiting, facial flushing, escape phenomenon
estrogen
stim apop of osteoclast
actions of bisphophonates
"1. induce apoptosis of osteoclasts by binding to hydroxyappetite(simple) 2. Loss of bone-resorptive activity by inhibiting FPP synthase and prevent prenylation of small GTPase signaling (osteoclast apop)
clinical uses of bisphophonates
ostoporsis, paget's, hypercalcemia, bone metastases
side effects of bisphophonates
osteonecrosis of the jaw
hypercalcemia Symptoms
reduced renal function and nephrocalcinosis
therapy for osteoperosis
calcitonin, teriparatide, sodium floride and bisphosphonate w/ Ca supplement, hormone therapy, raloxifene. calcitriol
Pathophysiology and symptoms of osteomalacia and rickets
lack of mineralization
treatment of osteomalacia
Simple vitamin D deficiency (Rickets) is treated with ergocalciferol(intestinal) and calcitrial (renal failure) nutritional
paget's disease
increase bone resorption compensated by accelerated bone formation (skull tibia humorus, pain deformity and bone fractures)
effects of t3 and t4
inc BMR (heat O2 consumption), heart and gut affected, inc resp to lipolytic hormones, in abs glucose, heart and liver glycogen depletion, makes B adrenergic receptors more sensitive and numerous, potential GH, CNS DEVEL, inc conversion of t4 to t3
side effects of T3 and T4
nervousness, insomnia, Cardio prob
cautions to look for w/ thyroxine therapy
cardio probs, adrenal cortex insufficiency, DM, Sympathomimetics, coumarin and related anticoagulants
side effects of thioureylenes
agranulocytosis, skin rash, goitre, hepatitis, nephritis, fever
side effects of iodine
toxicosis, hypothyroid, mouth and throat sores, acne, diarrhea, cough
treatment of Grave's
thioureylenes, thyrectomy, radioiodine
treatment of thyroid storm
sympatholytic, iodide (high dose), thioureylene
actions of PTH
bone resorption, Ca uptake and PO4 secretion by kidneys, and conversion of Vit D to active, intestinal absorption of Ca
side effects of PTH
nausea, headache, dizziness, cramps, hypercalcemia, gout
side effects of vit D
hypercalcemia
teriparatide
PTH analog, promotes new bone formation
treatment of paget's
calcitonin and etidronate (bisphosphonate)
what is
renal osteodystropy
kidneys don't make active Vit D treat w/ calcitriol bisphos and Ca (NOT ERGOCALCIFEROL)
symptoms of osteoporosis
reduced bone mass, fractures
