Test 35- HRM Flashcards
helps to accelerate fetal lung maturation by stimulating surfactant production
can be assessed through amniocentesis
maternala dn fetal cortisol
blocks THYROID PEROXIDASE inhibiting hte oxidation of iodide and organifcation of iodine>
inhibition of thyroid hormone syntehsis
methimazole
propylthiouracil
*txs hyperthyroidism
thyroid medicaiton used in pregnancy to block peripheral conversion
PTU
protein modification
folding
transfer
well developed in PROTEIN SECRETING CELLS
RER
*ribosmes detaching from the ER would leads to LOF
lacks surface ribosomes
lipid syntehsis
carb metabolism
dextox harmful substances
SER
coverts ANDROGENS to ESTROGENS in ovaries, testes, placenta and peripheral tissues
aromatase
def of this enzyme> accumulation of androgens during pregnancy> ambiguous gexternal genitalia in female infants and maternal virilization
placental aromatase def
decreased synthesis of DHT in male>
underdeveloped exernal genitalia
5 alpha reductase def
primary source of blood glucose after 12-18 hours
gluconeognesis
initial commited step of gluconeogenesis
pyruvate to OAA nad OAA to PEP
primary source of glucose for first 12 hours
glycogenolysis
Glycogen–> Glu1 P
pyruvate is converted to OAA by
pyruvate carboxylase (biotin)
coverts OAA to PEP
PEPCK
fructose 1,6 BP
glucose 6 phosphatase
2 other enzymes in gluconeogenesis that differ from glycolysis
GH stimulates bone, cartilage and soft tissue growth by stimulating the release of….
IGF-1 from the liver
(somatomedin C)
**increased during exercise and slleep
inhibitors of GH
glucose
somatostatine
carrier proteins for oxytocin and ADH
neurophysins carry oxytocin and ADH from site of production to paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei
during a water deprivation test, thse pts demonstrate a significant increase in urine osmolarity
low serum Na levels
Primary polydipsia
tx for primary polydipsia
restrict water intake
cofactor needed to covert OAA to citrate
B5
causes hypogonadism by inhibiting the release of GnRH from hypothalamus
hyperprolactinemia
cause hyperprolactinemia by anti-dopaminergic action
risperidone
other antipsychotiscs
