A

21-hydroxylase

37
Q

What is the last enzyme in zone 1 that is controlled by ATII?

A

P450 aldosterone synthase

38
Q

What is the role of cortisol?

A

combats stress and raises BS

39
Q

What 2 hormones are diabetogenic?

A

GH and cortisol
* raise BS

40

A

tyrosine hydroxylase

45
Q

___________ aids in the conversion of NOREPI –> EPI

A

cortisol

46
Q

A

estrogen

47
Q

___________ maintains the endometrium

A

progestrone

48
Q

What does the LH surge cause in regards to the follicle?

A

rupture of the graffian follicle

49
Q

__________ and __________ can both long loop negatively feedback in the menstural cycle

A

estrogen
progesterone

50
Q

Why does progesterone negatively feed back during the luteal phase?

A

prevent another ovulation too soon

51
Q

Why does estrogen negatively feed back during the follicular phase?

A

prevent overproduction of estrogen

52
Q

Why does estrogen positively feed back during the mid-cycle?

A

drives more GnRH to produce more inhibin so FSH is inhibited but FH largely increases

A

LH

Q

______ increases activity of armotase to convert testosterone into estradiol

A

FSH

hide from immune system
