Q

thyroid gland (bilobes) joined by

24
Q

thyroid follicles

A

sacs wit hormone and follicular cells
C cells (calcitonin)

25
hormones made by thyroid
thyriod hormone, thyroxone, triiodothyronine (rasies metabolic rate) t3 t4 (4 is inactive) calcitonin
26
calcitonin (thyroid)
deposits calcium in bones
27
parathyroids
four small oval glands on posterior side of thyroid location can vary
28
parathyroid role
secrete parathyroid hormone by chief cells to raise calcium in blood break down bone matrix to do this
29
ebdemic goiter
iodine lacking, too much thyroid hormone being release (bc feedback)
30
graves disease
autoimmune autoantibodies mimic effect of TSH to secrete thyroid hormone eyes buldge
31
adrenal glands/ superarenal location
above kidney
32
adrenal medulla
10-20% of gland central chromaffin cells secrete epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, adrenaline espqe raises metabolic rate
33
adrenal matrix
80-90% steroid hormones mineralcoryicoids, sex steroids, corticosteroids
34
xona glomerulosa
outter, thin, mineralcoriticoid
35
zona fasciculata
Glucocorticoid mid layer sex steroid energy perserve
36
37
zona recticularis
sex steroids (estrogen, n stuff) bottom layer
37
adrenogenital syndrome
adrenal cortex lacks enzymes needs for cortisol and aldosterone makes extra random sex hormones (androgens) gives girls BALLS
38
alpha cell (pancreas)
glucagon causes rise in blood sugar- release gulcose
38
cushing syndrome
ACTH oversecreted by antierior pit gland and glucocorticoid by adrenal stores fat in random ass places
38
delta cells (pancre)
somatostatin regulates speed of digestion (relsease glucogon and insulin)
39
beta cells (pancre)
insulin causes absorption of blood sugar- store glucose
39
ovaries
secrete estrogen (from gran cell of follicle) secrete progesterone (from corpus luteum) inhibin inhibits FSH secretion
39
corpus luteum
thicken uterine lining by secretign hormones
40
testes
interstitial cell make testosterone, regualte sex drive, sperm production
41
sustentacular cells
make up walls and shit of testes inhibins inhibits FSH secretion
42
liver secrete
angiotensinogen blood pressure increase
43
kidney secrete
renin- blood pressure up erythropoietin- red blood cell production
44
heart
natriuretic peptides - casues change sin sodium concentration with blood pressure changes
45
stomach
ghrelin- tells you to eat
46
adipose tissue
leptin- tells you to stop eat
47
placenta
estrogen and porgesterone
48
what shit shrinks as you age
adrenal, thymus, and pinela gland
49
insulin secretion as you age
decline
50
ovarian decline leads to
increased risk of cardio disease, osteroporosis, dementia
51
thyroid bas you age
decline, less target cell ability to convert t4 to t3
