Q

what is the colloid

A

the colloid contains glycoprotein and thyroglobulin

44
Q

does te thyroid store its secretory product?

A

the thyroid is the only endocrine gland to store its secretory product (3 months)

45
Q

how are t3, and t4 produced?

A

when needed the folicular cells phagocytose the colloid and cleave it into t3 and t4 for release into the blood stream

46
Q

parafollicular cells

A

(throid cells) secrete calcitonin- inhibit osteoclasts

47
Q

thyrocytes/follicular cells

A

cleaves thyroglobulin into t3 and t4.

48
Q

where is thyroglobulin made?

A

the colloid of the thyroid gland

49
Q

hypothyroidism (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis)

A

autoimmune disorder that destroys the follicular cells- thus low t3 and t4 levels. High TSH levels b/c not under negative feedback loop
symptoms= wight gain, fatigue

50
Q

hyperthyroidism (graves disease)

A

antibodies to TSH chronically stimulate follicular cells to synthesis and release hormone= wight loss, heat intolerance

51
Q

what affect does PHT have on the body

A

increases octeoclasts, increase ca absorption in the kidneys and inceased activated vitamin d = increase ca absorption in stomach

52
Q

the parathyroid gland is derrived from what pharyngeal arches?

A

superior - 4th arch

inferior - 3rd arch

53
Q

what cells produce PTH

A

principal (chief cells)

54
Q

hyperparathyroidism

A

hypercalcemia = decalcification of bones- leads to kidney stones

55
Q

hypoparathyroidism

A

increase bone density, mental confusion, life threating, from the removal/ destruction of glands

56
Q

what gland produces melatonin?

A

pineal gland

57
Q

The pineal gland develops from what?

A

pineal gland develops from neuroectoderm- remains attached to brain

58
Q

corpora arenacea

A

(brain sand) - concentration of mg and ca salts in the pineal gland

59
Q

what affect does melatonin have on the body?

A

diurna fucntion- converts sensory input to changes in hormone function (light vs dark)

60
Q

cartilage is composed of what type of collagen

A

type 2

61
Q

what causes scurvy?

A

a vtamin C defficiency b/c vitamin C is needed to help hydroxylate proline and lysine in type 1 collagen

62
Q

what types of collagen aggregate in fibrils and or fibers

A

collagen 1-3 fibrils
collagen 1&3 into fibers
collagen 2 remains a fibril

63
Q

what cell attaches cells the the ECM in hyaline cartilage?

A

chondronectin

64

chondrocytes reside

A

in lacunae

67
Q

territorial matrix

A

rich in gags, stains darker, surrounds lacuna

Q

what secretes ECM in cartilage

A

chrondroblasts and young chrondrocytes secrete ECM

69
