Term
| How is are steroid hormones transported in the blood? |
|
Definition
| Largely bound to albumin, some are dissolved in plasma as free hormones. |
|
|
Term

|
Definition
| largely dissolved in plasma |
|
|
Term
| 4 methods for clearance of hormones |
|
Definition
| Excreted in urine or feces, inactivated by metabolism, activated by metabolism, bind to receptor and produce a cellular response. |
|
|
Term
| Regulation of hormone receptors |
|
Definition
| Down-regulation with high concentration of hormone, Up-regulation with low concentration of hormone. |
|
|
Term
| Thyroid example of Permissive role of hormone |
|
Definition
| thyroid hormone can help up regulate epinephrine receptors to achieve epinephrine breakdown that would normally be unattainable without thyroid hormone. |
|
|
Term
| T/F Epinephrine is capable of high levels of Fatty Acid breakdown without thyroid hormone present. |
|
Definition
| False. The permissive role of thyroid hormone with epinephrine allows high levels of FFA breakdown to occur. |
|
|
Term
| T/F. Peptide hormones and other water soluble hormones interact with receptors on the plasma membrane and are involved in rapid cellular response. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| T/F. Steroid Hormones interact with reeceptors located on plasma membrane and are involved in rapid response. |
|
Definition
| False. Steroid hormones interact with intracellular receptors on nuclear membrane, affect gene activity with slower physiological response. |
|
|
Term
| 3 things capable of altering rate of hormone secretion |
|
Definition
| Ions/nutrients, Neurotransmitters, Hormones. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Partial destruction of gland, decreased synthesis ofhormone due to lack of necessary enzyme, dietary deficiency of iodine. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| No damage on gland itself, but lack of its tropic hormones. |
|
|
Term
| Will Primary hyposecretion respond to tropic hormone administration? |
|
Definition
| No. The gland has been destroyed or is intrinsically incapable of producing the hormone no matter how much it is stimulated to do so. |
|
|
Term
| Will secondary hyposecretion respond to tropic hormone? |
|
Definition
| Yes. Secondary hyposecretion occurs as a result of tropic hormone deficiency. Therefore, if the hormone is supplied by injection then the gland should respond to the tropic hormone and normal function would continue. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| the gland secretes too much hormone |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The gland is stimultaed by its tropic hormone to produce too much hormone. |
|
|
Term
| What is the common cause of hypersecretion? |
|
Definition
| The presence of endocrine cell tumor. |
|
|
Term
| Will there be high or low levels of tropic hormone in primary hypersecretion? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Will there be high or low levels of tropic hormone in secondary hypersecretion? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| REduced hormone receptors on target cells. abnormality in intracellular signaling proteins. lack of enzyme in activating hormone product. In general hormone in plasma is elevated in the presence of hyporesponsiveness. |
|
|
Term
| Does the Anterior Pituitary Gland have direct neural connection with hypothalamus? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| What kind of connection does the posterior pituitary have with the hypothalamus? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| What function does the infundibulum have in teh hypothalamo-pituitary gland? |
|
Definition
| It connects the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus. |
|
|
Term
| Hypophysiotropic Hormones from Hypothalamus |
|
Definition
| Coricotropin-releasing Hormone, Thyrotropin-releasing hormone, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone, growth hormone-releasing hormone, growth hormone release-inhibiting hormone, prolactin-releasing hormone, prolactin release-inhibiting hormone(dopamine) |
|
|
Term
| T/F Dopamine serves as the major prolactin release-inhibiting hormone. |
