endocrine 1 - exam 3 Flashcards
hypothalamus
secretes neurohormones onto anterior pituitary
heart
makes atrial natriuretic peptide which lowers blood Na+
atrial natriuretic peptide
made in heart
lowers blood Na+
adrenal gland organs
adrenal medulla and cortex
adrenal glands
medulla - epinephrine and norepinephrine for fight or flight
cortex - makes aldosterone which regs Na/K+ balance, makes cortisol and some androgens
makes epi/norepinephrine
adrenal medulla
aldosterone
made in adrenal cortex
regulates Na/K+ balance
cortisol
from adrenal cortex
liver
pods insulin like growth factor 1
controls bone. growth
secretes angiotensinogen - precursor for angiotensin 2
insulin like growth factor 1
from liver
controls bone growth
angiotensinogen
precursor from liver for angiotensin 2
kindeys
secrete erythropoietin which regs maturation of RBCs
prods vitamin D hormone
secretes enz renin to start synthesis of angiotensin 2
renin
enzyme of kidneys
starts synthesis of angiotensin 2
erythopoietin
secreted by kidneys
regs maturation of RBCs
pancreas
makes insulin
decreases blood glucose
makes glucagon - increase blood glucose
insulin
from pancreas
decrease blood glucose
decrease blood glucose
insulin from pancreas
increase blood glucose
glucagon from pancreas
glucagon
from pancreas, increase blood glucose
blood vessels
express enzymes for synthesis of angiotensin 2 - helps maintain normal blood pressure
angiotensin 2
maintains normal BP
adipose tissue
prods hormones like leptin which reg appetite and metabolic rate
leptin
hormone of adipose tissue regs appetite and metabolic rate
anterior pituitary gland
prods hormones w diverse actions related to metabolism, reproduction, growth
ACTH, FSH, LH, GH, TSH
posterior pituitary
secretes oxytocin which stems uterine contractions during birth nd milk secretion
secretes antidiuretic hormone = vasopressin which increases water reabsorption in kindeys
oxytocin
secreted by posterior pituitary
stims uterine contractions and milk production
antidiuretic hormone
vasopressin
increase water reabsorption in kidneys
from posterior pituitary
vasopressin
antidiuretic hormone
from posterior pituitary
increases water reabsorption in kidneys
pineal
makes melatonin - role in circadian rhythm
melatonin
from pineal
role in circadian rhythm
parathyroids
behind thyroid,
makes parathyroid hormone which increases blood ca2+ and stems prod. in kidneys of active vit D
parathyroid hormone
increases blood ca2+
stims production of active form vit D in kidneys
increases blood ca2+
parathyroid hormone
- calcitonin is homeostasis
where is vit D
kidneys
thyroid
thyroid hormone
makes calcitonin - ca2+ homeostasis
calcitonin
from thyroid
ca2+ homeostasis
ovaries
estrogens - estradiol
progesterone
testes
androgens - testosterone
