3. REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM- general Flashcards

LARGE AND SMALL ANIMALS

1
Q

female sex hormones - 1. production, 2. hormones, 3. role

A
  1. production is regulated: cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, hypophysis > produced in OVARIES
  2. FSH and LH, oestrogens and gestagens
    >reproductive function regulated by cerebral cortex and hypothalamus
    >neurosecretory cells in hypothalamus produce=hypophysiotropic hormones = releasing factors ex. LIBERINS (hermosoluja jotka pystyvät erittämään hormoneja > vaikuttavat etuaivolisäkkeen toimintaan)
  3. role: stimulate or inhibit release of hormones from adenohypophysis

-GONADOTROPINS produced under control of respective Liberians in adenohypophysis

Q

hormones produced in adenohypophysis (2)

A
  1. DIRECT-ACTING: direct effect of organism= PROLACTIN AND SOMATOTROPIN
  2. INDIRECT-ACTING: stimulate another endocrine organ> cause release of hormone there = GONADOTROPIC HORMONES, ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE, THYREOTROPIN-RELEASING HORMONE

Q

gonadotropic hormones

A

2 main: FSH, LH
> LUTEOTROPIC HORMONE, PROLACTIN > regulates milk production + stimulate CL
- GONADORELIN: GnRH > stimulate release of FSH & LH from hypophysis > result=follicle matures, ovulation occurs & production PROG begins (cat , dog) > increases production of testosterone in male dogs , cats > usage: stimulate ovulation, induce oestrus, treat follicular cysts in dog, cat
-BUSERELIN (GnRH)

Q

FSH & LH

A
  1. FSH= growth of 2ndary follicles in ovarian cortex, raise mitotic activity, optimal envi for ovum
  2. LH= final completion of follicle and ovulation > development of CL > also can cause production of estrogens and gestagens

> synthesis of both throughout oestrus cycle -level and proportion depend phase of oestrus cycle

-GESTAGENS inhibit LH > gonadotropins incr. incr. sex hormones. suppress secretion of gonadotropins

Q

estrogens (2)

A

-effect all female sex organs EXCEPT ovaries
1. NATURAL ESTROGENS : 17beta-estradiol > OESTRONE AND OESTRIOL > produced theca internal cells of Graafian follicles or placenta > metal. liver > estrogens in plants. (quick break down and action short)
2. SYNTHETIC OESTROGENS: more potent and duration longer - stable
