Renal and Circulatory effects of Aldosterone Aldosterone Increases Renal Tubular Reabsorption of Na+ and Secretion of K+ Excess Aldosterone↑→ ECF ↑→ABP↑ Small effect on plasma Na+ Concentration
Renal and Circulatory effects of aldosterone K+ concentration Aldosterone ↑→ Hypokalemia and Muscle Weak- ness Aldosterone ↓→Hyperkalemia and Cardiac Toxicity Mild Alkalosis: Aldosterone ↑ adrenal glands suddenly stop secreting aldosterone salt are lost in the urine→ECF↓ → blood volume ↓ → circulatory shock → causes death within a few days (without treatment)
Glucocorticoids Function :inhibit NADH oxidation which is necessary for glycolysis gluconeogenesis :FFA↑
Glucocorticoids Function Poor wound healing not most other cells
Glucocorticoids Function : same with mobilization of amino acid from muscle glucose uptake in adipose cell ↓
Glucocorticoids Function torso Cushing’s syndrome
Cushing’s syndrome Buffalo-like torso Rounded face, “moon-face”. Striae bruisability with ecchymose
Glucocorticoids Function Resisting stress Trauma , infection, intense heat or cold, surgery
Resisting stress stressor Brain Anterior pituitary (ACTH) Sympathetic nervous system Adrenal cortex Adrenal medulla Glucocorticoids NE,E

Summary of glucocoticoid action Gs Hepatic gluconeogenesis↑ Insulin action↓ BG ↑ Glucocoticoid↑→ Adrenal diabetes Pro-tein Catabolism ↑ (especially in muscle) anabolism ↓ Amino acid in blood plasma difficult of wound healing Fat Fat mobilization ↑ Fat redistribution acetone body ↑ central obesity Cushing’s syndrome H2O and Na+ Similar with aldosterone ADH ↓ GFR ↑ (1/400 of aldosterone) Glucocoticoid↓→ Water Intoxication

Regulation of Secretion of Adrenocortical Hormone Hypothalamus – Anterior Pituitary – Adrenocortical Axis
Regulation of Secretion of Adrenocortical Hormone Action of CRH Synthesis and release of ACTH Action of ACTH (adrenocorticotropin hormone ) control Cortisol secretion hypertrophy and proliferation of the adrenocorticol cells
Large amount administration of exogenous glucocoticoid , prohibit to stop using it suddently ?
Regulation of Secretion of Adrenocortical Hormone Regulation of cortisol Secretion Negative feedback effect of cortisol cortisol
Diseases of Adrenal Glands Cushing’s Disease Hyper-active adrenal cortex rounded face & obesity Thin, frail skin poor wound healing Addison’s Disease Hypo-active adrenal cortex Decreased appetite, weight loss Cold intolerance Stress susceptibility

Insulin
Insulin acetoacetic acid is also converted into b-hydroxybutyric acid and acetone. ketone bodies: Acetoacetic, b-hydroxybutyric acid ,acetone

Glucagon
Endocrine regulation of calcium and phosphate metabolism
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) Polypeptide
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) Funtion : increase the calcium concentration Bone Stimulate osteoclast to remove Ca 2+ from the bone matrix Kidney: Increased Ca2+ reabsorption, PO42- excretion Small intestine Increased Ca2+ reabsorption
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Calcitonin Produced by the C cells of the thyroid gland. Function plasma Ca 2+ and PO42-↓ Regulation Concentration of Ca 2+ increased ,The calcitonin increased.
Vitamin D3 Function ↑intestinal calcium and phosphate absorption. ↓renal calcium and phosphate excretion. Coordinate with PTH increase Ca 2+ .
