1
Q

endocrine vs paracrine vs autocrine

A
  • endo: acts on any tissue in body
  • para: acts on a tissue in local area
  • auto: acts on tissue that provided secretion

Q

up vs down regulation

A

up: form more receptors
down: caused by long term exposure to hormone
- cell becomes desensitized

Q

fast vs slow acting hormones

A

fast: work quickly during ex to maintain glucose concentration
slow: allow other hormones to exert full effect
- involved in reg of CHO, fat, protein metab

originating gland of ACTH

what happens to it during exercise

A
  • pituitary

- doesnt get effected by exercise until 25% of VO2 max

17
Q

stimulators of ACTH

A

-none

secreted in AM

18
Q

actions of ACTH

A
  • regs hormones secreted by adrenal medulla
  • facilitate protein breakdown
  • increase FFA utilization
  • increase gluconeogenesis
19
Q

origainting gland of ADH

what happens to it during exercise

A
  • posterior pituitary

- increase during exercise b/c of sweating

20
Q

stimulators/inhibitors of ADH

A

stim: decrease BP/fluid loss
inhib: fluid overloads

21
Q

actions of ADH

A
  • increase H20 reabsorb

- conservation of fluids

22
Q

originating gland of E/NE (catecholamines)

what happens to them during exercise

  • increase with exercise
  • E @ 75% VO2 max
  • NE @ 50% VO2 max
23
Q

stimulators of catecholamines

A
  • decreased BP and glucose

- too much stress

24
Q

actions of catecholamines

A

increase in:
