Q

Pituitary hormone feedback mechanism (FSH, LH)

A

Short feedback mechanism

23
Q

Hypothalamic secretions within the hypothalamus

A

Ultrashort

24
Q

Releasing FSH and LH

25
Produces ACTH
CRH
26
Derived embryologically from epidermal ectoderm from an infolding of Rathke's pouch
Anterior "Adenohypophysis"
27
No direct neural connection | No direct arterial BS -- flow comes from portal vessels of median eminence
Anterior or Adenohypophysis
28
Adenohypophysis secretes
GH, PRL, ACTH (acidophilic) FSH, LH (basophilic) TSH (neutral boooo)
29
Direct physical extension of hypothalamus
Posterior or Neurohypophysis
30
Posterior or Neurohypophysis BS
Superior, middle, inferior hypophyseal arteries
31
Composed exclusively of neural tissue Hypothalamic magnocellular system - supraoptic nuclei and paraventricular nuclei
Posterior or Neurohypophysis
32
Secrete synthetic products from their axonal boutons into general circulation to act as hormones: Oxytocin and AVP
Posterior or Neurohypophysis
33
Decapeptide from arcuate nucleus
GnRH or LHRH
34
Potential inhibitor of PRL and stimulator of gonadotropin release
GnRH-associated peptide (GAP)
35
Simultaneously regulates FSH and LH Continual pulsatile secretion: - short half-life - autoprimes or upregulates GnRH receptors
GnRH
36
Frequent small amplitude
Follicular
37
Increase in both freq and amplitude
Late follicular
38
Progressive lengthening of interval between pulses, higher amplitude than in follicular phase that progressively declines
Luteal
39
Progressive lengthening of interval between pulses, higher amplitude than in follicular phase that progressively declines
Luteal
40
Increased receptor affinity or decreased degradation
Agonists
41
No intrinsic activity but competes for the same receptors | Prevents stimulation of endogenous gonadotropin
Antagonist
42
Opiods are affected by
GnRH e.g endorphins, enkephalins, dynorphins Inhi release of gnrh
43
Ovarian sex steroids increase
Central endorphins
44
Glycoprotein that share the alpha subunit Beta subunit confers receptor specificity - rate limit
FSH and LH
45
Under topic inhibition by hypothalamic secretion of dopamine
PRL
46
Secreted by pit thyrotrophs in response to TRH
TSH
47
Comes from arcuate nucleus
TRH
48
Major stimulus for PRL
TSH
49
Sec by paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus
Oxytocin
50
Oxytocin stimulated by suckling w impulses travelling via
Thoracic nerves > spinal cord > hypothalamus
51
Stimulation of cervix and vagina
Ferguson reflex
52
Neuroendocrine reflex comprising self sustaining cycle of uterine contractions
Ferguson reflex
53
Oxytocin | ISO LEU
ADH | PHE ARG
54
Synthesized primarily by neurons in supraoptic nuclei in ppgalnd
ADH
