What would you expect to happen to th levels in cold conditions ? levels would growth. Myxedema (adult hypothyroidism, th: thyroid gland disorder low metabolic charge per unit , sluggishness, sleepiness, weight unit gain, constipation, dry skin and fuzz , cold sensitivity, blood pressure and tissue swelling. Regulates response to stress, effect on suprarenal gland lens cortex of the adrenal glands and secernment of glucocorticoids regulates secretion of insulin from the pancreas. Hormone transferral & activeness: steroids and thyroid hormone require transportation protein, but easily enter jail cell hydrophobic, monoamines and peptides transport easily in bloodline , but cannot enter cell and must bind to sensory receptor hydrophilic. Targets kidney to water retention, reduce urine prevents dehydration! Adrenal disorder pheochromocytoma - tumor of adrenal gland medulla with hypersecretion of epinephrine/nor-epinephrine causes bp, metabolic charge per unit , hyperglycemia, glycosuria, nervousness, indigestion, sweating con dential information to exhaustion and decreased immune function.
