Question | Answer |
---|---|
Both nervous and endocrine system are import in maintaining this | homeostasis |
of the 2 systems; this system tends to be more widespread and less immediate in its effects | endocrine |
types of glands release substance into the interstitial fluid then go into the blood | endocrine |
these glands secrete outside of the body | exocrine |
hormone that acts on the cell that produces it | autocrine |
horomone which enter the blood are called | circulating hormones |
A hormone which acts on cells in the vicinity of its release | paracrine |
steroid hormones and thyroid hormones are what kind of soluble | lipid |
Amines, peptides, and proteins are which kind of soluble | water |
Acts as a secondary messenger for some water based hormones | cyclic amp |
receptors for water soluble hormones are found here | cell membrane |
hormone receptors for lipid soluble hormones are found in the | cytosol or in the nucleus |
These bind to nuclear receptors and inactivate them when hormones are not present | chaperonin |
this hormone producing structure is found anterior and inferior to the thalamus in the diecphalon | hypothalamus |
hormone released by the hypothalamus in response to low t3 levels | TRH- thyrotropin releasing hormone |
horomone released by the hypothalamus in response to low levels of estrogens | gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) |
Hormones released by the hypothalamus due to hypergycemia | GHRH and CRH |
2 hormones synthesized by the hypothalamus and released by the neurohypophysis | oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone |
The part of the pituitary which is anterior and is composed of glandular epithelium | adenohypophysis |
the pituitary is found in this part of the sphenoid bone | sella turcica |
The pituitary is often considered ____ gland because it regulates many other endocrine glands. | master |
The ________ controls the pituitary with releasing and inhibiting hormones. | hypothalamus |
Vascular connection between the hypothalamus and the adenohypophysis | hypophyseal portal system |
in the hypthalomohypophyseal tract of the cell body; axons are found in the | hypothalamic nuclei |
2 hormones are trasported by the hypothalamonhypophyseal tract | oxytocin and antidurietic hormone |
hormones which target other endocrine organs | tropins |
hormone releases IGFs and promote growth of muscle and home | Growth hormone |
Causes the release of hormone from the adrenal cortex | adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) |
Anterior pituitary hormones that effect the gonads | LH and FSH |
Hormone that stimulates milk production | Prolactin |
Causes kidneys to reabsorb more water | antidiuretic hormone |
Bilobed gland found on the trachea just inferior to the larynx | thyriod gland |
Thyroid is composed of these fluid filled sphericle structures called | thyroid follicles |
Thyroglobin is made by the | follicular cells |
These cells produce calcitonin | parafollicular cells or C-Cells |
These cells synthesize T3 and T4 | thyroid follicle hormone |
Thyroxine has this many iodine atoms attached | 2 thyrosines |
Hormone that increases basal metabolic rate | T3 and T4 |
T3 and T4 role in maintaining normal body temp is called the _____ effect | calorigenic |
The numbers on thyroid hormones T3 and T4 stand for the number of these atoms | iodine |
This hormone decreaes blood calcium | calcitonin (CT) |
The bone sparing effects of calcitonin results from the inhibition of these | osteoclasts |
This autoimmune disease results in hyperthyroidism | Graves disease |
This autoimmune disorder results in hyposecretion of T3 and T4 | Hashimotos |
An enlarged thyroid results in this | goiter |
One cause of an enlarged thyroid is the lack of this in a diet | iodine |
On the posterior of the thyroid are 2 pairs of these glands | parathyroid glands |
The the parathyroid gland these are the cells which make parathyroid hormones | cheif cells or principle cells |
Parathyroid hormone cause these organs to reabsorb more calcium | intestine |
this hormone increases blood calcium | parathyroid hormone (PTH) |
Cacitriol enhances the absorption of calcium here | kidneys |
In responce to parathyroid hormone the kidneys will reabsorb more | blood calcium |
PTH converts inactive Vit D to its active form in this organ | kidneys |
Theses glands are found on top of the kidneys | adrenal glands |
Hormone that causes the kidneys to reabsorb more sodium | aldosterone |
The mineralcorticoids are made in this zone of the adrenal cortex | zona glomeulosa |
Angiotension II causes the adrenal cortex to release this | aldosterone |
Androgens are made in this zone of the adrenal cortex | zona reticlaris |
Adrenal cortex hormone that is responsible for the female libido | androgens |
This hormone causes gluconeogenesis | cortisol |
This hormone has anti-inflammatory actions | cortisol |
This glucocorticoid are made in this zone of the adrenal cortex | zona fasclculata |
Chromaffin cells are found here | adrenal medulla |
These hormones are released by chromaffin cells, cause the fight or flight reaction, and increase heart rate | epinephrine and norephinephrine |
This organ has both endocrine and exocrine tissue | pancreas |
The endocrine portion of the pancreas | Islets of Langhorns |
Insulin is synthesized by these cells | B-Cells (beta cells) |
The exocrine portion of the pancreas | acini |
Glucagon is synthesized by these cells | A Cells (alpha cells) |
This hormone causes and increase in blood sugar | glucagon |
Glugagon is released by these cells | A cells (alpha cells) |
Hormone that causes breakdown of glycogen | Glucagon |
Hyperglycemia is a stimulus for this pancreatic hormone | glucagon |
Hypoglycemis is a stimulus for this pancreatic hormone | Insulin |
Hormone causes protein synthesis | lipogenesis |
3 cradinal signs of DM are | polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia |
