where are the posterior pituitary hormones synthesized?
hypothal
the posterior pituitary hormones are enclosed in small vesicels and transported along _____ and _____ axons and accumlate in axon terminal i the posterior pituitary
supraoptic and paraventricular axons
_____ ______ trigger the release of posterior pituitary homrones which then enter capillaries and return to the heart
action potentials
what are two posterior pituitary homrones
oxytocin
vasopressin
definition. stimulates smooth msucle contractiosn in the breats and stimulates contraction of uterine smooth muscle during labo
oxytocin
definition. stimulates contraction of smooth muscle around blood vessels causing increase in blood pressue and acts on kideny to decrease water excretiion ii the urine leadeing to water retention
vasopressin
ADH =
vasopressin or water retention
definition. hypothalamic hormones that regulate anterior pituitary function
hypophysiotropic hormones
what are the six clasical hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary (all peptides)
FLATPG
FSH
LH
ACTH
TSH
Prolactin
GH
GH TSH prolactgin and ACTH are each secreted by a distinct cell type in the ____ _____
anterior pituitary
gonadotropic hormones are secreted by the ____ cells
same
hypophsiotropic hormones are delivered to the anterior pituitary gland via the _____-______ _____ _____
hypothalamic pituitary portal vessels
upon arrival, the releasing hormones bind to receptors on the pituitary cells to evoke secretion of the _____ ______ ____
anterior pituitary hormones
know the hormone summary slide
fuck
in dual negative feedback what does the negative feedback act on
hypothal
anterior pituitary
long loop pathways start at the ____ hormone and act on the hypothal or pituitary
third
what is an example of neural congtrol of hypophysiotropic hormones
CRH ACTH cortisol sequence
definition. exerted by the anterior pituitary homrone on the hypothal
short loops feedback
definiition. extered by the thrid hormone in the squence on the hypothal and or the anterior pituitary
long loop feedback
True or false. TH receptors are present in the nuclei of most cell in the body affecting many organs and tissues
true
How do T4 or T3 change cell behavior
inducing gene transcription and protein synthesis
what are the three actions of T3 and T4
metabolic actions
permissive actions
growth and developmen
what do metabolic actions of t3 and T4 include
stimulate carb absorption from the small intestine
increase fatty a release from adipocytes
provide energy to matintain metabloic rate stimulus of NaK atpases
what do the permissive actions of T3 and T4 include
permissive effects on catecholamines upregulates beta adrenergic receptors in many tissues most notably the heart and nervous system
this part of T3 and T4... normal production of GH and most important devleopmental hormones for the nervous system
growth development
definition. an environemtnal change that msut be adapted to if healtha dn life are to be maintained
stress
stress causes the secretion of _____
glucocorticoid hormonal CORTISOL
how does the hypothal communicate with the anterior pituitary
hypothamopituitary portal vessels
how does the anterior pituitary communicate with the adrenal cortex
ciruclation
what does the hypothal make in a stress response
CRH
what does the anterior pituitary make in a stress response
ACTH vasopressin
what does the adrenal cortex make in a stress response
cortisol
permissive actions on epi and NE regulation of muscle cells surrounding blood vessels and maintainence of blood pressure is a function of _____
cortisol
what are five functions of cortisol
inhibit the production of leudotrienes and prostaglandins so antinflamm
reduce capillary permeability in injured tissues
suppresses the growth and function of certain immune cells like in autoimmun related damage
permissive actions on epi and NE regulation of msucle cells surrounding blood vessles (bp)
in table 11-3 what are the five functions of cortisol during stress
metabolism
vascular reacitivy
protection against damaging influence of stress
inhibition of inflammation in immune response
inhibition of nonessential functions like growth and reproduction
what are four other examples of other stress hormones
aldosterone
vasopressin
GH
beta endorphin
definition. stress hormones that acts to retain water and dsodium
aldosterone
stimulate secretion of ACTH causing release of cortisol
vasopressin or ADH
definition. stress hormone that acts to mobilize enrgy stories
GH
definition. stress hormone iwth potential pain killing effects
beta endorphin
what are the six reasons that the sympathetic NS is fight or flight
1.) increased heptaic and muscle glycogenolysis
2.) increased breakdown of adipose tissue triglyceride
3.) decreased fatigue of skeletal msucle
4.) increased cardiac function\
5.) divergion of blood from viscera to skeletal muscles by means of vasoconstriction and vasodilation
6.) increased lung ventilation by stimulating brain breathign centers and dilating airways
calcium homeosgtasis depends on an interplay among ______ , ______, and the ____ ___
bone kidney and GI tract
what percent of calcium is stored in the bone
99%
definition. a special connective tissue consisting of cells surrounded by a collagen matrix called the osteoid
bone
the osteoid holds and deposited minerals particularly the crystals of calcium and phophate known as ________
hydroxyapatite
what are the three types of bone cells
osteoblast
osteocyte
osteoclast
definition. osteoblasts that have become surrounded by calcified matrix. have long cytoplasmic processes extending throughout the bone
osteocytes
definitoin. large multinucleated cells that break down and resorb bone by secreting hydorgen ions which dissovle the crystal and hydrolytic enzymes which digest the osteoid
osteoclasts
what are the hormones that favor bone formation and increased bone mass
insulin
GH
IGF1
estrogen
\testosterone
calcitonin
what are the hormones that favor increased b one resorption and decreased bone mass
