Physio Exam 3 Chapter 11 part 2 Flashcards
Hypothalamus neuron cells bodes are produced where:
ADH—
Oxycotin–
They are then transported along the hypothalamo-hypophyseal tract and stored in the ________?
supraoptic, paraventricular, posterior pituitary
Hypothalamus hormones synthesize releasing and _______ hormones. Hormones are transported to axon endings of ___________?
inhibiting, median eminence
Hormones secreted into the hypothalamo-hypophyseal portal system regulate the secretions of the…
anterior pituitary
Anterior pituitary and hypothalamic secretions are controlled by the target organs they regulate. Secretions are specifically controlled by ________ by target gland hormones.
negative feedback inhibition
In regards to the anterior pituitary, the target gland hormone can act on the _______ inhibiting secretion of releasing hormone.
The target gland can also act on the _________ and inhibit the response to the releasing hormone.
hypothalamus, anterior pituitary
Retrograde transport of blood from anterior pituitary to the hypothalamus.
Hormone released by anterior pituitary inhibits secretion of releasing hormone, this is called
short feedback loop
The regards to the anterior pituitary, this would be an example of what kind of effect:
During the menstrual cycle, estrogen stimulates “LH surge.”
positive feedback effect
Relationship between anterior pituitary and a particular target gland.
Pituitary-gonad
This is called the
axis
Hypothalamus receives input from ________. Psychological stress affects circadian rhythms and _______
higher brain centers, menstrual cycle
Paired organs that cap the kidneys? It consists of an outer cortex and an ______?
adrenal glands, inner medulla
Derived from embryonic neural crest ectoderm (same tissue that produces the sympathetic ganglia).
Synthesizes and secretes:
Catecholamines (mainly Epi but some NE). This is called the?
adrenal medulla
Adrenal cortex _______ receive neural innervation. It must be stimulated ______?
does not, hormonally
The 3 zones of the adrenal cortex are? Does the adrenal cortex secrete corticosteriods?
zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata, zona reticularis, yes
Zona glomerulosa:
Mineralcorticoids (_______), stimulates _____ to reabsorb _____ and secrete K+
aldosterone, kidneys, Na+
Zona fasciculata: Glucococorticoids (________), inhibit ______ utilization and stimulate gluconegenesis
cortisol, glucose
Zona reticularis (_______), sex steroids, supplement sex steroids
DHEA
The adrenal medulla is innervated by _________ sympathetic axons.
Increases respiratory rate, increases HR and cardiac output, vasoconstiction of blood vessels increasing venous return, stimulate glycogenolysis and stimulates lipolysis
preganglionic
