Q

ADH action (V1 and V2)

A

V2 receptor - collecting ducts more permeable to water - high affinity for ADH -> sensitive to small changes in blood osmolarityV1: mesangial cell contraction in glomerulus; suppress renin release from JG’s; arteriole constriction; increase ACTH release from ant. pit. - low affinity for ADH

Q

6 major ant. pit hormones

A
  1. FSH - gonadotrophs - promotes gamete development in both sexes. 2. LH - gonadotrophs - promotes sex steroid synthesis in both sexes. 3. TSH - thyrotrophs, stimulates growth and hormone production of thyroid gland. 4. GH - somatotrophs, promotes the overall growth of the body - both bones and soft tissue. 5. PRL - mammotrophs, is responsible for milk production in females and normal levels enhance LH action in males (note that high PRL levels are inhibitory). 6. ACTH stimulates the growth and steroid production of the adrenal cortex

48
catecholamine biosynthesis
Tyrosine → DOPA → DA → NE → E- Tyrosine hydroxylase(tyr→ DOPA) = rate limiting enzyme (negative feedback inhibited; neuroligically stimulated)- Dopamine β-hydroxylase (DA → NE) is the only enzyme located in the granules – the rest of the enzymes are cytosolic.- PNMT (NE → E) is found only in epinephrine producing cells (stim via cortisol)
49
catecholamine metabolism product
2 pathways - both result in VMA -> excreted in urine
50
