Lab Practical 1 Flashcards
Posterior pituitary - What hormones? One is an example of positive/negative feedback
Which tissue? What cell? What appearance does it have?
Posterior pituitary has pituicytes that make ADH & oxytocin (positive feedback)
Stringy like neurons
anterior pituitary What hormones?
What cells? What is their appearance?
Anterior pituitary has
acidophils (light) - makes GH and prolactin
basophils (dark) - makes LH, ACTH, FSH, TSH
What are the dark and light structures?
Dark = parathyroid Light = thyroid
What tissue? What does it contain? What cells? What do these cell make? What hormones? (3)
Thyroid gland contains colloid-filled follicles
Follicular cells make thyroglobulin (thyroglobulin + iodine = t3)
Make thyroxine and calcitonin hormones
What tissue? What cell? What hormone? What is the function of the hormone? What is it’s antagonist hormone?
Parathyroid gland (2 dots on back of thyroid gland)
Parathyroid cells
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) that increases blood Ca levels
Calcitonin
What tissue? What are the layers from top to bottom? What hormones do they produce? What are the functions of each hormone?
Adrenal gland
Zona glomerulosa - mineralocorticoids (aldosterone) - Na reabsorption and retention water
zona fasciculata - glucocorticoids (cortisol) - hold onto fat in times of stress, gluconeogenesis to elevate blood glucose, FA, aa levels
zona reticularis - gonadocorticoids (androgens) - masculine traits
Adrenal medulla - adrenaline/epinephrine - for short term stress such as increased heart rate, vasodilation
What tissue? What cells? What color? What hormones? What are its functions? Why is it a dualistic organ?
Pancreatic islet
Alpha cells - dark - glucagon - make glycogen into glucose
Beta cells - light - insulin - convert glucose to glycogen
Dualistic because endocrine (hormones) and digestive (enzymes)
___ pituitary gland produces hormones and ___ pituitary gland holds hormones released by the hypothalamus

the ___ pituitary gland has the hypophyseal portal system and the ___ gland has neurohypophysis
anterior pituitary gland has the hypophyseal portal system
posterior pituitary gland has neurohypophysis
