The Adrenal Gland
3
The Adrenal Gland The adrenal medulla The adrenal cortex catecholamine
corticoids Zona glomerulos zona fasciculata zona reticularis
4
Anatomy of Adrenal Cortex
zona glomerulosa secretes aldosterone zona fasciculata secretes glucocorticoids zona reticularis secretes androgens Androgen glucocorticoid
5
Adrenocortical hormone
6
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
7
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)
8
Glucocorticoids Function
:inhibit NADH oxidation which is necessary for glycolysis gluconeogenesis :FFA↑
9
Glucocorticoids Function Poor wound healing not most other cells
10
Glucocorticoids Function
: same with mobilization of amino acid from muscle glucose uptake in adipose cell ↓
11
Glucocorticoids Function torso Cushing’s syndrome
12
Cushing’s syndrome Buffalo-like torso Rounded face, “moon-face”.
Striae bruisability with ecchymose
13
Glucocorticoids Function Resisting stress
Trauma , infection, intense heat or cold, surgery
14
Resisting stress stressor Brain Anterior pituitary (ACTH)
Sympathetic nervous system Adrenal cortex Adrenal medulla Glucocorticoids NE,E

Glucocorticoids Function
16
Glucocorticoids Function
17
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
18
lung and spleen eosinophil storage↑ RBC↑TBC↑ lymphocyte↓ neutrophil↑
Blood cell hematopoiesis↑ lymphopoiesis↓ lung and spleen eosinophil storage↑ RBC↑TBC↑ lymphocyte↓ neutrophil↑ eosinophil ↓ Leuke-mia Gastric shield gastric acid and peptic enzyme ↑ gastric mucosa↓fall off of gastric epithelia cell ulcer ↑ Circulat-ion permisivienesss glucocoticoid↓→BP↓ CNS excitability↑ less→euphoria more→restlessness, insomnia leukemia
19
Regulation of Secretion of Adrenocortical Hormone
Hypothalamus – Anterior Pituitary – Adrenocortical Axis
20
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
21
Large amount administration of exogenous glucocoticoid , prohibit to stop using it suddently
?
22
Regulation of Secretion of Adrenocortical Hormone
Regulation of cortisol Secretion Negative feedback effect of cortisol cortisol
23
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 Small protein 51 AA Receptor Tyrosine kinase
29
Insulin
30
Insulin acetoacetic acid is also converted into b-hydroxybutyric acid and acetone. ketone bodies: Acetoacetic, b-hydroxybutyric acid ,acetone
31
Insulin
32
Insulin
33
Glucagon
34
Endocrine regulation of calcium and phosphate metabolism
36
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Polypeptide
37
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
38
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
39
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.
40
Vitamin D3 Function ↑intestinal calcium and phosphate absorption.
↓renal calcium and phosphate excretion. Coordinate with PTH increase Ca 2+ .
