Acts as a secondary messenger for some water based hormones   cyclic amp  
🗑
receptors for water soluble hormones are found here   cell membrane  
🗑
hormone receptors for lipid soluble hormones are found in the   cytosol or in the nucleus  
🗑
These bind to nuclear receptors and inactivate them when hormones are not present   chaperonin  
🗑
this hormone producing structure is found anterior and inferior to the thalamus in the diecphalon   hypothalamus  
🗑
hormone released by the hypothalamus in response to low t3 levels   TRH- thyrotropin releasing hormone  
🗑

🗑
Hormones released by the hypothalamus due to hypergycemia   GHRH and CRH  
🗑
2 hormones synthesized by the hypothalamus and released by the neurohypophysis   oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone  
🗑
The part of the pituitary which is anterior and is composed of glandular epithelium   adenohypophysis  
🗑
the pituitary is found in this part of the sphenoid bone   sella turcica  
🗑
The pituitary is often considered ____ gland because it regulates many other endocrine glands.   master  
🗑
The ________ controls the pituitary with releasing and inhibiting hormones.   hypothalamus  
🗑
Vascular connection between the hypothalamus and the adenohypophysis   hypophyseal portal system  
🗑
in the hypthalomohypophyseal tract of the cell body; axons are found in the   hypothalamic nuclei  
🗑

🗑
hormones which target other endocrine organs   tropins  
🗑
hormone releases IGFs and promote growth of muscle and home   Growth hormone  
🗑
Causes the release of hormone from the adrenal cortex   adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)  
🗑

🗑
Causes kidneys to reabsorb more water   antidiuretic hormone  
🗑
Bilobed gland found on the trachea just inferior to the larynx   thyriod gland  
🗑
Thyroid is composed of these fluid filled sphericle structures called   thyroid follicles  
🗑
Thyroglobin is made by the   follicular cells  
🗑
These cells produce calcitonin   parafollicular cells or C-Cells  
🗑

🗑
T3 and T4 role in maintaining normal body temp is called the _____ effect   calorigenic  
🗑
The numbers on thyroid hormones T3 and T4 stand for the number of these atoms   iodine  
🗑
This hormone decreaes blood calcium   calcitonin (CT)  
🗑
The bone sparing effects of calcitonin results from the inhibition of these   osteoclasts  
🗑
This autoimmune disease results in hyperthyroidism   Graves disease  
🗑
This autoimmune disorder results in hyposecretion of T3 and T4   Hashimotos  
🗑
An enlarged thyroid results in this   goiter

🗑
Cacitriol enhances the absorption of calcium here   kidneys  
🗑
In responce to parathyroid hormone the kidneys will reabsorb more   blood calcium  
🗑
