what is the process of compaction?
outer cells of the morula develop tight junctions (a seal) that separates inner cells from outside world)
potassium aggravated myotonia
defect in SCN4A (Nav channel) causes myotonia (muscle stiffness), hyperexcitable SkM and periodic paralysis
can get from exercise, stress, K rich foods

galactosyl transferase and alpha-lactalbumin
pharyngeal arch/corresponding nerve
1- CN V.3
2- CN VII
3- CN IX
4- CN X
what is this
tonsil
effect of PTH on kidney
inc. Ca resorption at distal tubule - TRPV5 channel insertions onto luminal membrane, Na Ca exchanger & Ca ATPase on basolateral membrane
inc. phosphate excretion at proximal tubule
inc. expression of 1-alpha-hydroxylase (activates vitamin D)
h. pylori
infection in pylorus that causes duodenal ulcers and adenocarcinoma - occurs in mucous neck and surface mucous cells
- active phase: make NH3
- stationary phase: make proteases, inflammation
- colonization phase
what cell type forms the fetal part of the placenta?
syncytiotrophoblasts
enzyme that adds iodines to thyroglobulin
thyroperoxidase
at apical membrane
V2 vasopressin receptor
kidney principal cells –> cAMP –> water resorption
calcitriol degradation
24 hydroxylase converts to calcitoic acid (principal excretion product)
how does cortisol have anti inflammatory effects?
it inactivates NFKB which is pro-inflammatory
what enzyme converts pregnenelone to progesterone?
3βHSD
what are the only cells in the male reproductive system that express FSH receptor?
sertoli cells
what is the amnion
surrounded entire embryo enclosing it in fluid filled amniotic cavity - protective cushion
(inner layer)
what is the gubernaculum
mesenchyme that attaches to inferior pole of testes, guided descent to the scrotum (processus vaginalis is tract)
hCS placental lactogen during pregnancy
breast development, mobilize nutrients for fetus, gestational diabetes (GH promotes growth and muscle is resistant to glucose)
where are colloid cysts found
pars intermedia
whats the diff histologically between efferent ductules and epididymus?
how does seminal vesicle look on slide?
efferent ductules - irregular lumen
epididymus - regular lumen
seminal vesicle looks like a crumpled up paper bag with lots of lumen, but really just one lumen
what hormone is required for growth and differentiation of mammary gland
prolactin (req E and P)
what does leptin do for puberty
it activates Kiss-1 gene of nerves in the amygdala to make kisspeptin-10
that synapses onto GnRH nerves
what am I
what does my basolateral membrane have receptors for?
parietal cell
secretory canaliculi
gastrin, histamine, Ach receptors (HAG)
what does PKA do?
phosphorylates CREB which is a gluconeogenic TF that inc. PEPCK expression
where is the epithalamus/what is it formed from
epithelial thickening at caudal end of diencephelon
ID
esophagus
GALT
thin walled lymphatic veins in LP
black arrow

what type of glands are mammary glands and whats their common name?
tubuloalveolar
called glands of montgomery
four hormones made by granulosa cells
- AMH - controls rate that follicles become pre ovulatory
- activin - enhances GC responsiveness to FSH
- inhibin - downregulates release of FSH and promotes LH induced androgen synthesis
