Exercise imposes a variety of biological stresses on the body. Challenges the homeostatic regulation of blood glucose, body temperature, blood pressure, and blood volume

How does exercise effect the body

The physiologic stresses imposed by exercise are regulated simultaneously through a systematic communication process involving these

Hormones

Chemical messengers produced in one tissue that signals changes in other organs and tissues throughout the body. They interact with cell receptors


Hormones

The study of hormones and effects on the body

Endocrinology

What do hormones control?

The regulation of macronutrient fuel stores



The "fight or flight " responses



The adaptive responses to exercise and maturation

A branch of physiology dedicated to the systematic study of comtrol systems

Neuroendorcinology

Both of these systems sense information, organize a response, and then deliver the message to the proper organ or tissue

Nervous system



Endocrine system

How do the nervous system and endocrine system differ in their functions.


Endorcine- releases hormones directly into the blood



Nervous- uses synaptic signals to relay messages from one nerve to the other

How are hormones are classified

By their chemical makeup

Amino acid derivatives



Peptides



Proteins



Steroids

Classes of hormones

The effect of a hormone exerts on a tissue is proportional to the hormone concentration in the plasma and the number of active receptors it binds to

Blood hormone concentration

Hormone concentration is dependent on

Hormone secretion rate from the endocrine gland



The rate of hormonal metabolism or excretion



Transport protein quantity



Changes in the plasma volume

Control of hormone secretion

The rate at which a hormone is secreted from an endocrine gland is dependent on the magnitude of input and whether it is stimulatory or inhibitory in nature



RELEASE of insulin in the blood is influenced by concentration changes


In facors: plasma glucose, amino acids, epinephrine, increased sympathetic and parasympathetic activity and hormone incretins

Metabolism and excretion of hormones

Metabolized [ inactivated]


Kidneys can metabolize a variety of hormones or excrete them in their active form

Metabolism and excretion of hormones


exercise

The rate at which hormones are inactivated or excreted decreases. Hormonal half life increases



Increases the elevation of the plasma level of the hormone over its secretion rate

TRANSPORT PROTEIN

Hormones must be free to interact with the receptor and not "bound" to the transport protein

Capacity

The maximal quantity of hormone that can be bound to the transport protein

Affinity

The chemical tendency of the transport protein to bind the hormone

Increase in the quantity, capacity, or affinity of transport protein reduces the amount of free hormone and its effect on tissue

Effects of transport protein

Plasma volume

Changes in plasma volume necessitate an inversely proportional change in the hormone concentration



Influences hormonal actions



During exercise a drop in plasma volume causes an increase in concentration of hormones in the plasma

Hormone receptor interaction

Receptor numbers may decrease when exposed to a chronically elevated level of a hormone resulting in a diminished hormonal response for a given concentration

Hormone receptor interaction

Chronic exposure to a low concentration of a hormone may lead to an increase in receptor numbers with the tissue becoming very responsive to the available hormone

Mechanisms of hormone action

Hormones modify cellular activity

They alter activity of DNA in the nucleus to initiate or suppress the synthesis of a specific protein



They are the reason why special proteins in the cells are activated by " sec9nd messangers"



They aid in the alteration of membrane transport mechanisms

Enzymes

They have a lipid like nature, can pass through cell membranes where they bind to a protein receptor in the cytoplasm of the cell. Enters the nucleus and binds to hormone-responsive elements on DNA.
