Document Summary
18. 1 overview of the endocrine system: metabolism epinephrine causes hr to go up increases metabolism of cells. Epinephrine stimulates glycolysis which directly increases metabolism in muscle cells: control of food intake and digestion insulin. Insulin also plays influential role of food intake / behaviour / patterns: tissue maturation growth hormone stimulates protein synthesis, remodelling. Ion regulation aldolsterone stimulates sodium reabsorption: water balance adh secreted by posterior pituitary, stimulates water reabsorption, heart rate and bp regulation epinephrine (by acting on smooth muscle) Administer drug similar to oxytocin to speed up delivery if pregnant woman is late: immune system regulation (how many wbc"s we have) 18. 2 pituitary gland and hypothalamus nervous + endocrine systems hypothalamus regulates secretions of anterior pituitary. Posterior pituitary inferior to hypothalamus, intermediate between neural tissue and rest of the body neurohypophysis (indicating posterior part of pituitary is neural tissue) neurons extend from hypothalamus into posterior pituitary extension of hypothalamus (2 major hormones): adh, oxytocin.
