| Other supplements i.e. aldosterone
26
Functions of cortisol:
BP: upregulates a1-Rs, acts as aldosterone at high conc
Insulin resistance
Gluconeo, lipolysis, proteolysis
Decrease fibroblast activity (striae)
Decrease immune system (incl. IL-2 production --> candidiasis and reactivation of TB). Neutrophilia
Decreased OBL activity
27
Ca and pH
40% Ca bound by albumin (45% ionized = free)
| Increase pH = less H+ = albumin binds more Ca++ = hypocalcemia (tetany, cramps, spasms, paresthesias)
28
Vit D2 vs D3
```

D3 = skin
```
29

| 2' and 3' = NO skin (no ACTH) and NO hyperkalemia (aldosterone synthesis preserved)
42
Na+ levels in hyperaldosteronism
