CH4 hormones Flashcards
Hormones
regulate blood glucose levels
Hormones
Insulin glucagon epinephrine norepinephrine cortisol growth hormone
Insulin
Secreted- beta cells of pancreas
stimulates- liver and muscle cells to take up glucose and store it as glycogen
Insulin
Stimulates glucose transporters (carrier prtn) to help glucose from blood to cell mem.
INSULIN
reduces blood sugar
Glucagon
Secreted by alpha cells in pancreas
Increase blood sugar
Glucagon
stimulates liver -> glycogen to glucose
glucagon
assist in gluconeogenesis
Gluconeogenesis
production of glucose from AA
Norepinephrine/ epinephrine
Increase blood sugar
secreted- Medula adrenal glands and nerve endings when blood glucose is low
Cortisol
Increase blood sugar
secreted in adrenal gland ( adenohypothesis) Pit gland
Cortisol
Increases gluconeogenesis
decreases- glucose by muscles and organs
Growth hormone
Increases blood sugar
secreted- anterior lobe of pit gland (Fisiculata) ( adrenal gland)
GH
Decreases muscle glucose uptake
Increases fatty acid mobil. and use
increases liver glucose output
