Endokrinologie Flashcards
What is endocrinology?
Endo = Inside, krinein= secretion towards the insinde
Hormon = like a signal
Physiology = normal functions - body is not ill
- Signaling = hormones signal something
- Endokrin = signal to the body (inside of the body)
- Exokrin = pancreatic enzymes (outside of the body)
- Physiological action of a hormone
- Target organs - receiving hormone -
- Function: change something (z.B pubertät viele Homron change body)
- Feedback loops
- Positive Feedback - stimulation - yes
- Negative Feedback - inhibition - no (if its enough)
Pathophysiology
abnormal function
- too much h.
- to littel h
- hormone is not build the right way or the receptor in the molecules
- autonomy (like ping pong - wrong signals)
- Organs - cancer
Feedback loop
What types of en. system is in the body?
E. systems
Bone
Sugar & fet metabolisim
I: Calcium, phosphate, Vitamin D = need enough
- Vit. D helps to resorb Calcium
D: Osteoporosis
H: Parathyroid hormone
I: glucose & lipid metabolism, muscle & brain nutrition
D: DM
H: Insulin, Ghrelin, Glucagon
- Ghrelin; growth hormone, food intake, weight gain)
- If you block that you are not hungry (hunger feeling)
- Glucagon
- Gegenspieler Insulin (helps to raise glucose level in the blood)
- Insulin
- Lowers the glucose the level in the blood
System E. System
Cardiovascular
Fluid homeostasis
Endocrine Systems
Growth
Sexual functions
Ect
G = Jod zu wenig - Konnten diese H. nicht produziert werden
S=
Er = after 3 day sleeping & breathing better often use as doping
Anemia = no enough erythrop. to carry O2
How common is e. disease?
DM 1

Thyroid gland
Def
Pathophysiology?
Symptoms?
Therapy?
Therapy:
- Block production of thyroid hormone production
- Treat and prevent end organ failure e.g. tachycardia, hypertension etc.
- Replace hormone
