Glands

Question 0

Adrenal Medulla

Answer 0

• Center of the adrenal gland
• Autonomic nervous system
• Catecholamines epinephrine and *norepinephrine
• Decrease increase blood clot
• release fatty acids
• increase BMR
• Increase blood glucose

Question 1

Adrenal Glands

Answer 1

2 glands on each kidney
Adrenal Medulla
Adrenal Cortex

Question 2

ADRENAL CORTEX

Answer 2

Secretes STEROID HORMONES
regulated by HYPOTHALMUS-pituitary axis
Hypothalamus secretes (CRH) corticotropin releasing hormone -stimulates pituitary gland to secrete (ACTH) -adrenal cortex -glucocorticoid hormone (cortisol) increase adrenal cortex hormones inhibit secretion of CRH and ACTH

Question 3

Adrenal cortex hormones

Answer 3

Hypothalamus 
    |
Corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) 
    |
Anterior pituitary 
     |
Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) 
      |
Adrenal cortex
      |
Cortisol (Inhibits anterior pituitary and hypothalamus)

Question 4

Question 8

The principle glucocorticoid released as the result of ACTH release from pituitary gland gland, inhibits the release of CRH and ACTH, essential in time of steer regulated metabolic function can be admin in firm of cortisone

Answer 8

Cortisol (Hydrocortisone)

S/E (DM, otseoporo, peptic ulcers, poor wound healing)

Question 9

Mineral corticoids

Answer 9

Aldosterone Is the principle mineral corticoids.

• metabolism
• responds to angiotensin 2
• RAS

Question 10

Androgens

Answer 10

Ready similarity to make arc hormones
Contributed to pubertal growth of body hair (especially axillary in women) m
Little or no effects in small Almohads
over secretion (masculinization) (Andregenital syndrome)

Question 11

Cortisol and androgen hormones

Answer 11

are excreted in unbound form and bind to plasma proteins got transport.

Question 12

Aldosterone

Answer 12

Transported by binding to album

Question 13

The liver is the primary site of metabolism for cortex hormones

Answer 13

got metabolism for cortex hormones

Question 14

The liver

Answer 14

The primary site of metabolism fit cortex hormone

Question 15

Andrenal gland dysfunction

Answer 15

Hyposecretions excretion of hormones
*Addisons

Hyper secretion of Hormones
