Chapter 17 Slides 51+ Flashcards
cold temperature, pregnancy, high altitude, hypoglycemia cause hypothalamus to release?
thyrotropin releasing hormone TRH
thyrotropin releasing hormone causes anterior pituitary to release?
thyroid stimulating hormone
thyroid stimulating hormone binds to receptors of follicular cells in the thyroid and triggers the release of?
thyroid hormone
follicular cells release two forms of thyroid hormone into the blood what are they?
triiodothyronine, tetraiodothyronine T3 and T4
thyroid gland produces more T4 but T3 is more active for most ______ ______ convert T4 to T3
target cells
thyroid hormone increases________ rate and _________ synthesis in target cells and stimulates the systhesis of _________ ________ pumps in neurons
thyroid hormone increases metabolic rate and protein synthesis in target cells. It stimulates synthesis of sodium potassium pumps in neurons.
thyroid hormone stimulates increased _____ ______ &_________ uptake. it also increases number of cellular respiration enzymes within___________
thyroid hormone causes increased amino acid and glucose uptake it also increases the number of cellular respiration enzymes within mitochondria.
thyroid hormone increases glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis well decreasing in glycogenolysis by stimulating what in the liver?
hepatocytes
thyroid hormone stimulates adipose cells to increase blood ________& ____ _______
increased blood withdrawal and fatty acids
thyroid hormone causes increase in little Isis and decrease in lippo Genesis in adipose tissue cells this saves glucose for the brain this effect is known as
glucose sparing effect
what does thyroid hormone due to respiration rate and heart rate
thyroid hormone increases respiration rate and heart rate, these responses help me increase 02 demand for aerobic cellular respiration
thyroid hormone causes heart to increase receptors for?
epinephrine and norepinephrine
Graves disease is a result of_______________ resulting in increased metabolic rate, weight loss, hyperactivity, heat intolerance
hyperthyroidism. caused by T4 ingestion, excessive simulation of pituitary, or loss of feedback control in thyroid. Treated by removing thyroid
treatment for grave does Graves disease or hyperthyroidism is?
treated by removing the thyroid, then giving hormone supplements.
what results from decreased production of thyroid ? include low metabolic rate, lethargy, cold intolerance, weight gain, photophobia.
hypothyroidism . caused by decreased iodine intake, loss of pituitary stimulation of thyroid, post-surgical, or immune system destruction of thyroid.
