Q

hormone sensitive lipase

A
  • prolonged fasting
    -catalyzes the mobilization of stored triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol
  • then free fatty acids and glycerol are uptaken by the liver for gluconeogenesis
  • free fatty acids will become ketones
    -activated in response to stress hormones

A

If acth decreases, Pituitary problem

Ectopic endures

25

Ectopic Cushing

A

Dexamethasone does not suppress ACTH

26

What do you do if acth is high?

A

Dexamethasone test

27

Maple syrup urine disease

A

Defective metabolism of isoleucine, leucine, and valine - branch chain amino acids

I love Vermont maple syrup

Give thiamine

28
Q

epinephrine is produced in the

A

adrenal medulla

29
Q

norepinephrine is converted to epinephrine by

A

phenylethanolomine n methyltransferase

30
Q

statins

A
  • leads to enhanced hepatic LDL receptor recycling
  • inhibits HMG coa reductase
31
Q

4 actions of parathyroid hormone

A
  1. stimulates osteoclasts
  2. Ca reabsorption in the DCT
  3. urinary phosphate excretion (Phosphate trashing hormone)
  4. increased conversion of 25 hydroxyvitamin D to calcitriol
32
Q

methimizole

A

directly inhibits coupling/organification of iodotyrosines via inhibition of thyroid peroxidase

A

oral thiazoladinedione used in type 2 diabetes. it binds to ppargamma

34
Q

Hormone that decreases synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes

A

Cortisol

35
Q

DPP4 inhibitors

A

Dipeptidyl peptidase, increases GLP1, causes delayed gastric emptying, stimulates glucose dependent insulin release, decreases glucagon release
