26
Q

GH binds to receptors located where?

A

in cell membrane

27
Q

Main Physiological Roles of GH

A

Decreases glucose utilization.
Decreases glycogen synthesis.
Increases amino acid transport across cell membranes.
Increases protein synthesis.
Increases utilization of fatty acids.
Increases lipolysis.
Increases availability of glucose & amino acids.
Increases collagen synthesis.
Stimulate cartilage growth.
Increases the retention of nitrogen, sodium, potassium, & phosphorus.
Increases renal plasma flow & filtration.
Promotes compensatory renal hypertrophy.
Enhances immune cell function.

28
Q

GH exists as a family of polypeptide molecules which are

A 
22 kDa,
20 kDa,
17 kDa,
5 kDa, &
other isoforms exist
29
Q

Primary form of GH

A

22kD

30
Q

GH is highest at what time of day

A

at night during sleep

31
Q

How is amplitude & number of pulses affected by GH?

A

increase by exercise

32
Q

Does resistance training affect GH?

A

Yes! GH concentration and Gh variants

little change in single measurements of resting GH concentrations in elite lifters.

33
Q

What intensity, volume and rest period most notably affects GH?

A

Moderate- to high-intensity, high volume programmes (bodybuilding program) using short rest periods have shown the greatest acute GH response

34
Q

Protocols that elicit (high/low) blood lactate values

tend to produce the most substantial GH responses.

A

high

35
Q

What is potentially the primary factor influencing GH release?

A

H+ accumulation hence acidosis

36
Q

During menstrual cycle, is GH high or low?

A

high due to due to greater frequency & amplitude of secretion.
Rest: [GH] women > [GH] men.

37
Q

In response to acute resistance exercise, explain GH between women and men.

A

Postexercise: [GH] women = [GH] men.

38
Q

In response to acute aerobic endurance exercise, explain GH between women and men.

A

Postexercise: [GH] women > [GH] men.

39
Q

Insulin-Like Growth factors

A 
are structurally related to insulin.
are also called somatomedins.
mediate many of the actions of GH.
are small polypeptide hormones.
IGF-1 (70 amino acids) is studied the most.
IGF-2 (67 amino acids).
40
Q

IGF are secreted why and by what?

A

are secreted as they are produced by the liver in response to GH-stimulated DNA synthesis:
this process takes about 8 to 24 hours.

41
Q

Two forms of IGF

A

IGF-1Ea

MGF

42
Q

How are IGFs transported?

A

are transported in the blood by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs):

43
Q

Low basal concentrations, what happens to IGF-1?

A

increase

44

High basal concentrations, what happens to IGF-1?

A

decreases

45
Q

Adrenal medulla responds to

A

exercise stress

46
Q

Adrenal medulla releases?

A

releases the catecholamines: epinephrine & norepinephrine.

47
Q

Adrenal cortex responds to?

A

exercise stress

48
Q

Adrenal cortex is stimulated by?

A

adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which is released by the anterior pituitary gland.

49
Q

Adrenal cortex releases?

A

cortisol

50
Q

What does cortisol do?

A

converts amino acids to carbohydrates
gluconeogenesis.

increases the level of proteolytic enzymes.

stimulates protein degradation.

inhibits protein synthesis.
inhibits amino acid incorporation into proteins.

51
Q

Cortisol is a primary signal hormone for…

A

carb metabolism (PROMOTES THE USE OF FAT)

52
Q

Cortisol receptors

A

glucocorticoid receptors.

53
Q

How are cortisol circulated

A

freely (10%),
bound to albumin (15%), &
bound to corticosteroid-binding globulin (75%).

54
Q

Acute resistance training affects on cortisol

A

Significant elevations of cortisol & ACTH in men & women.

55
Q

Intensity, volume and rest for cortisol release and elevation.

A

high volume, moderate to high intensity, & short rest periods.

which may contribute to muscle tissue remodeling.

56
Q

Conventional strength/power training effects on cortisol.

A

Little change in lactate & cortisol blood concentrations have been observed.

57
Q

Effects of catecholamines.

A

Increase force production via central mechanisms.
Increase metabolic enzyme activity.
Increase muscle contraction rate.
Increase blood pressure.
Increase energy availability.
Increase blood flow.
Augment secretion rates of other hormones such as testosterone.

58
Q

How does ACUTE BOUT of resistance affect norepi and epi and dopamine?

A

increases

59
Q

How does heavy resistance affect norepi and epi and dopamine?

A

increased epi

60
Q

How does resistance affect norepi and epi and dopamine?

A

may decrease the catecholamine response to acute resistance exercise (Guezennec et al., 1986).

61
Q

Whats bad about secondary responses of cortisol?

A

negative effects on the immune system & protein structures.

62
Q

How to avoid secondary responses to cortisol?

A

training protocols that are varied (which also allows the adrenal gland to engage in recovery processes).
