Q

Hypophysyiotropic hormones

Q

Insulin

A

Decreases lipolysis, gluconeogensis
Increases glucose transport
*from pancreas

18

19
Q

Thyroid gland

A

after hypothalamus

after pituitary

20
Q

Parathyroid glands

A

different then thyroid gland

makes T3/T4

21
Q

Thyroid hormone synthesis & secretion

A

depends on iodide

needs this to make T3/T4

22
Q

After iodide diffuses in it binds to…

A

thyroglobulin

23
Q

Thyroglobulin facilitates…

24
Q

T3/T4 splits up and then…

A

diffuses back into the blood stream

25
Main action of thyroid gland?
increases metabolic rate*** Other actions heat production growth *CNS sympathetic
26
T4 pops off iodide then becomes...
T3 enters into target cell Diffuses through nuclear membrane Increases cardiovascular/metabolism
27
Hyperthyroidism: causes
Graves' disease: autoimmune Excessive hormone production Pituitary tumor Thyroid tumor *Weight loss
28
Tumors can cause...
hypo & hyper
29
Graves' disease
autoimmune & endocrine, antibodies persistant sim of thyroid gland results in goiter
30
Cortisol
hypothalamus: CRH pituitary: ACTH adrenal: cortisol glucocortoid effects *response to stress, relieves
31
Insulin: Islet of Langerhans
Beta produces insulin Alpha produces glucagon *Counteracts each other Uptake is needed to get out of blood...ATP can't happen
32
Main role of parathyroid glands?
regulate Ca
33
3 sources of Ca? (PTH)
Bone Kidney Intestine
34
PTH & Calcitonin
Decrease Ca + Parathyroid, - Thyroid C cells Increase PTH, Increase Calcitonin Increase Ca, Decrease Ca Increase Ca - Parathyroid, + Thyroid C cells Increase PTH, Increase Calcitonin Increase Ca, Decrease Ca
35
Diabetes Mellitus
Genetic, Environmental B-Cell dysfunction Hyperglycemia Acute, Chronic
36
DM 1 Patho
B-Cell destruction T Cells failing to recognize B-cells as self Attack B-Cells *antibodies
37
DM 2 Patho
``` Fatty Acids Adipokines Inflammation Insulin resistance B-Cell dysfunction ```
38
Fatty Acids
Inhibits glucose utilization and increase glucose production
39
Adipokines
Horomones assoc w/ adipose Increase w/ obesity: Leptin, Resistan, block insulin Decreases w/ obesity: Adiponectin, enhances insulin
40
Inflammation
Cytokines that block insulin response | TNF & IL-6
41
Chronic complications: DM
Retinopathy Nephropathy Neuropathy Atheroscelerosis
42
DM 1 Tx
Insulin | Diabetic Care Training
