Q

2 drugs that block aromatase

A

anastrozole, exemestane

25
Q

what blocks 5 alpha reductase?

A

finasteride

26
Q

symptoms of 17 alpha hydroxylase def in XY/XX

A

XY: ambiguous genitalia, undescended testes
XX: lacks secondary sexual development

27
Q

what blocks the conversion of cortisol to cortisone?

A

glycyrrhetic acid

28
Q

what stimulates aldosterone synthase?

A

angiotensin II

29
Q

what enzyme def is associated with dec renin?

A

11 beta hydroxylase

30
Q

what enzyme def is associated with inc renin and inc 17 hydroxy progesterone?

A

21-hydroxylase

31
Q

2 reasons that cortisol inc blood pressure

A
  1. upregulates alpha 1 receptors on arterioles –> inc sensitivity to norepinephrine and epinephrine
  2. at high conc., can bind to aldosterone receptor
32
Q

what property of cortisol lead to purple striae?

A

dec fibroblast activity

33
Q

cortisol dec bone formation by dec activity of what cell?

A

osteoblast

34
Q

what is the level of renin and aldosterone in 17 alpha hydroxylase def?

A

low renin, low aldo

35
Q

what is the potassium level high or low in 17 alpha hydroxylase def?

A

low

36
Q

what explains the low serum K+ in 17 alpha hydroxylase def?

A

11-deoxycorticosterone acts similar to aldoesterone leading to hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis

37
Q

what congenital adrenal enzyme def mimics addison dz?

A

21 hydroxylase def (b/c of high ACTH and low cortisol, hyperkalemia)

38
Q

what congenital adrenal enzyme def mimics conn’s syndrome?

A

both 17 alpha hydroxylase def and 11 beta hydroxylase def (b/c of low renin activity, hypokalemia due to high 11 DOC)

39
Q

how is cortisol regulated?

A

CRH from hypothalamus stimulates ACTH release from pituitary that stimulates cortisol production in adrenal zona fasciculata

40
Q

describe the effect of excess cortisol on CRH, ACTH?

A

dec CRH, dec ACTH

41
Q

what acid/alkalosis disturbance can lead to hypocalcemia?

A

alkalosis (inc pH) –> inc affinity of albumin to bind Ca2+, leading to hypocalcemia

42
Q

symptoms of hypocalcemia?

A

cramps, pain, paresthesias, carpopedal spasm

43
Q

what are the effects of inc sex hormone binding globulin in men and women?

A

in men, inc SHBG leads to low free testosterone –> gynecomastia

in women, dec SHBG leads to inc free testosterone –> hirsutism

44
Q

what 2 conditions lead to inc SHBG in women?

A

OCPs, pregnancy (b/c estrogen inc SHBG synthesis)

45
Q

name the 4 functions of parathyroid hormone

A
  1. inc bone resorption of Ca2+ and PO43-
  2. inc kidney reabsorption of Ca2+ in distal convoluted tubule
  3. dec reabsorption of PO43- in proximal convoluted tubule
  4. inc 1, 25 (OH)2D3 (calcitriol) production by stimulating kidney 1 alpha hydroxylase in proximal convoluted tubule
46
Q

explain how PTH leads to the activation of osteoclast which leads to inc serum Ca2+

A

inc production of macrophage colony-stimulating factor and RANK-L (receptor activator of NF-KB ligand)

47
Q

RANK-L (ligand) is secreted by

A

osteoblast

48
Q

RANK (receptor) is on what cell?

A

osteoclast

49
Q

how does RANK-L and RANK interact to stimulate Ca2+ release?

A

RANK-L (ligand) secreted by osteoblasts and osteocytes binds RANK (receptor) on osteoclasts and their precursors to stimulate osteoclasts and inc Ca2+

50
Q

will low serum Mg2+ stimulate or inhibit PTH secretion?

what about very low serum Mg2+?

A

stimulate PTH (however, very low serum Mg2+ dec PTH)

51
Q
