Question
Answer
LECTURE 12   LECTURE 12  
🗑
What are the three classes of hormones?   Amines, proteins, and sterioids  
🗑
Give an example of amine hormones and their solublity?   EPI and NE, water soluble  
🗑
How are peptides and proteins activated?   Tghey must be synthesized as large hormones that are cleaved  
🗑
What are sterioid hormones produced from?   Cholestrol  
🗑
How do sterioid hormones normally circulate with?   Bound with proteins (b/c they're lipids)  
🗑
What do they end with, name wise?   One (e.g. testrostONE, progestrONE)  
🗑
What does the adrenal medulla secrete? What about the cortex?   Medulla does EPI and NE, cortex does steroid hormones  
🗑
What are some steroid hormones released fromt he cortex?   Aldostrone, cortisol  
🗑
What is the role of aldostrone?   Role w/ kidney's handling of sodium, K+  
🗑
What structures remove hormones?   Kidneys and liver  
🗑
What class of hormones must be attached to proteins in blood, must bind INSIDE target cells, and are lipiid solube?   Steroid and thyroid  
🗑
What is permissiveness?   Up regulate or down regulate  
🗑
What can control hormone release?   Concentration of ion/nutrient, ANS input (neurotransmitter), and other hormones (hypothalamus controls a lot)  
🗑
What connects the hypothalamus to the pituitary gland?   Infundibulum  
🗑
Post. Pit secretes?   Oxytocin and vasopressin  
🗑
How are secretions of ant vs. post pituitary?   Post has neural connections to hypothalamus, but ant is controlled by hypphyiotropic hormones  
🗑
Ant pituitary secrtes?   GH, TSH, ACTH (cortisol), PRL, FSH, LH  
🗑
What hypophsiotropic hormones makes ACTH? TSH? GH? LH? FSH? What inhibits GH? What about PROLACTIN (PRL)?   CRH; TSH, GNRH, somastostatin inhibits GH, DA inhibits PRL  
🗑
Long loop vs. short loop?   Long loop acts on the hypotropic hormone. Short loop acts on the secreter of the original hormone  
🗑
What is the role of the pineal gland with SAD?   Light inhibits melatonin, but darkness stimulates its release-->SAD when there is no light  
🗑
Primary disorder vs. secondary disorder?   Defect with hormone secreter vs. defect with tropic hromone  
🗑
What does thryroid gland secrete?   T4 > T3  
🗑
Improtant element involved with growth, brain developement, and metabolic rate of thryoid hormone?   Iodine  
🗑
What does cortisol have permissive effects upon?   Glucogeogenesis, SNS (EPI and NE)  
🗑
How does a synapse occur?   Travels along axon-->opens Ca+-->release neurootransmitter  
🗑
Does the vestiublar system (located in the temporal membrane) impact hearing?   NOPE! just posture  
🗑
What is the most important dfense of the immune system?   SKIN  
🗑
Non-specific defenses generally have what characteristics?   Very fast, first there..  
🗑
Macrophages have a role in what (specific/non-specific?)   Non-specific  
🗑
Cytotoxic T-cells function to/   Destroy our own cells  
🗑
What are NON-SPECIFIC responders? (4)   Neutrophils, mast cells, macrophages, and NK cells  
🗑
Which of teh non-specific responders are FIRST RESPONSE?   Neutrophils and NK cells  
🗑
What do mast cells have a role in?   Inflmation (think allergies)  
🗑
What is the main purpose of macrophages?   They eat stuff, but they're MOST IMPORTANTLY Antigen Presenting Cells (APC)  
🗑
Is your skin part of your specific or non-specific defense?   Non-specific...you know that.l  
🗑
Which of the following does NOT have a role in inflmamation? A. Mast Cells B. Neutrophils C. B-Cells D. Macrophages   C. B-cells. Remember that they are part of the SPECIFIC immune system. Inflmamation is unique to NON-SPECIFIC.  
🗑
Which of the following makes antibodies? A. B-cells B. Macrophages. C. T-cells. D. All of the above?   A. B-cells (through plasma cells)  
🗑
What must happen to b-cells to make antibodies? What do they need help from, I mean?   Helper-T-cells  
🗑
What must happen to activate helper T-cells?   Antigen presentation by MHC Class II  
🗑
What are some MHC Class II molecules? MHC Class I?   MHC Class II: Macrophages and B-cells MHC Class I: All cells in our body  
🗑
What does MHC class one activate?   Cytotoxic T-cells  
🗑
Recall: What did Cytotoxic t-cells do?   Kill our own "bad" cells by apoptosis (programmed cell death)  
🗑
What is tremendously impacted during AIDS?   Helpter-T-cells  
🗑
What is clonal deletion?   When our body kills our bad cells that disagree with other cells...  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
