week 2 neuroendrinology Flashcards
what is the thyroid hormone
catecholamines
what are the 2 peptides proteins
ACTN- adrenocorticotrophic and ADH
what are the 2 steroids
glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids
what is blood hormone concentration determined by
the plasma and active receptors numbers
what effects plasma concentration
rate of secretion
rate of metabolism
quantity of transport proteins
changes in plasma volume
what influences secretion of hormones
endocrine glands affected by inputs that impact outputs by supporting or interfering
hormones only affect what
tissues that contain specific hormone receptors
what are the 2 steroids
glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids
what factor influence secretion of hormones
endocrine glands support inputs or outputs
hormones only effect what tissue
with correct hormone receptors
what is downregulation
a decrease in receptor numbers in response to high concentrations oh hormones beta receptors
what is up regulation
an increase in receptor number due to low concentration hormone
what is the mechanism of action of steroid hormone
Steroids pass through cell membranes to target a cell and bind to a receptor.
effects gene expression and causing changes in biological processes
what 6 hormones pituitary gland secretes
ACTH
FSH
MSH
TSH
GH
LH
what does the posterior pituitary gland secrete
oxytocin and ADH
what does ADH do
stops water loss by maintaining plasma volume
where is fluid reabsorbed due to ADH
kidneys tubules
what is ADH stimulated by
1 high plasma osmolality and low plasma volume and sweating long periods with no water
what is the threshold of ADH to occur during exercise
60% vo2 to maintain plasma
what is slow acting hormones
act in permissive manner to allow other hormones to exert full effect
thyroid hormones are what type of hormone
slow
what does thyroid hormones do
influence number of receptors on surface of a call for other hormone to react with
triiodothyronine - t3 - enhances what
effect of epinephrine to move fatty acids from adipose tissue
glood glucose homeostasis during exercise is controlled by what
slow or fast hormones
what is growth hormone
helps growth
what is essential for growth of all tissue
amino acids and protein synthesis
where does growth hormone come from
anterior pituitary gland and hypothalamus
lack of t3 epe would be what
diminished
low thyroid would be linked to what
metabolic rate
growth hormone is controlled by what feedback
negative
exercise impacts hypothalamus which is a strongest what
stimulus
growth hormone does what to plasma glucose
spares it and increases gluconeogenesis
blocking glucose and mobilising fats
