Epinephrine - Filtration   Blood Vessels   Constrict --> LOWER GFR   Adrenal MEDULLA   High GFR  
Renin   Blood Vessels   Constrict --> LOWER GFR   Jg Complex   High GFR  
ANP   Renal   Decrease Na+ reabsorption --> Increased Na+ Excretion   Heart   HIGH Na+  
Aldosterone   Renal   Increase Na+ Reabsorpton --> Decrease Na+ Excretion & Increase K+ Secretion --> Increase K+ Excretion   Adrenal CORTEX   LOW Na+, HIGH K+  
ADH   Renal   Volume & Osmolarity Mechanisms   Hypothalalmus --> POST. Pituitary   Plasma Volume, Extracellular Osmolarity  
Insulin   Adipose, Muscle, Liver   1. stimulats Glucose & AA entry into cells --> Inhibits Glycofen catabolism; 2. FA, Glycogen, & Protein Synthesis   BETA cells - Pancreas   Increase in Blood Glucose or AA - HYPOglycemic - Absorptve  
Glucagon   Liver, Fat   Glycogenolysis --> Glucose, Lipolysis --> Ketones & FA   ALPHA cells -Pancreas   LOW Blood Glucose or HIGH AA - HYPERglycemic - POSTabsorptive  
Epinephrine - metabolism   Liver, Muscle, Adipose   promotes Glycogenolysis & Lipolysis   Adrenal MEDULLA   LOW Blood Glucose --> stimulates Receptors --> RAISE Sympathetic --> Secretion - HYPERglycemic - POSTabsorptive
