Q

why pancreas is an endocrine gland?

17
Q

enhances catabolic functions during fasting periods; promotes ____

A

glycogenolysis

18
Q

It promotes ______,____-,_____ and ____

A

glycogenolysis glycogenesis, lipogenesis and glycolysis; decrease glycogenolysis.

19
Q

secreted by the cells of the zona fasciculata and zona reticularis of the adrenal cortex; decreased glucose entry;promote gluconeogenesis and lipolysis

A

cortisol and corticosteroids (glucocorticoids)

20
Q

released from the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla;promote glycogenolysis and lipolysis

A

cathecholamines

21
Q

secreted by the anterior pituitary gland;decreases entry of glucose into the cell;promotes glycogenolysis and glycolysis

A

growth hormone

22
Q

promotes glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis and intestinal absorption of glucose.

A

thyroid hormone

23
Q

stimulates release of cortisol from the adrenal cortex;promotes glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis

A

ACTH (adrenocorticothropic hormone)

24
Q

is produced by the delta cells of the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas;synthesized in the paraventricular and arcuate nuclei of the hypothalamus;primarily inhibits the action of insulin, growth hormone and glucagon

A

somastostatin

25
Q

increase in blood glucose concentration; toxic to beta cell; cause stress, dehydration, pregnancy, severe infection, pancreatectomy, hemochromatosis, insulin deficiency or abnormal insulin receptor (>/ 126 mg/dL)

A

hyperglycemia

26
Q

laboratory findings in hyperglycemic

A

Increase glucose in plasma and urine
Increase urine specific gravity
Ketones in serum and urine
Decrease blood and urine pH (acidosis)
Electrolyte imbalance (↓〖Na〗^+,↑K^+,↓〖hCO〗_3)

27
Q

imbalance between glucose utilization and production;related to CNS

A

hypoglycemia
