Interaction of Hormones
_______ :
Several hormones are complimentary
->Combined effect greater than that of either by ___
Interaction of Hormones
_______ :

REVIEW
Control of hormone secretion:
->Negative feedback – output opposes the input
->Positive feedback – amplification of initial hormone effect
->Neuroendocrine reflexes – sudden increases
->Rhythms – of varying durations
(circadian rhythm – 24 hrs, base rhythm generated by clock proteins in the SCN, synch’d by light and pineal melatonin release)
->Hyposecreton
->Hypersecretion
Target Tissue Responsiveness:
->Absence of Receptor
->Receptor Down regulation - loss of function with chronic, elevated hormone levels
Interaction of Hormones:
->Permissiveness – little if any effect on its own, but needs to be there for another hormone to be effective (epinephrine and TH)
->Synergism – combined effect greater than either alone (FSH and T)
->Antagonism – One reduces the effect of another (P and E during pregnancy)

REVIEW:
Anatomical arrangement of the hypothalamus and pituitary:
->Neurohypophysis is anatomically connected
->Adenohypophysis is functionally connected through a portal blood system
Neurohypophysis produces 2 hormones: 1) Vasopressin release triggered by increased plasma osmolarity or decreased ECF volume or blood pressure
-Detected by hypothalamic osmoreceptors and left atrium volume receptors
-Targets the kidney (distal and collecting tubules), causes insertion of aquaporins and enhances the retention of water
-Targets the arteriolar smooth muscle to cause pressor effect
2) Oxytocin release triggered by mechanoreceptors in cervix or nipple
-Acts at uterus (increase contractions)
-Acts at breast (milk ejection)
-Act at corpus luteum to aid in termination of CL function
Adenohypophysis:
->Controlled by hypophysiotropic hormones that can be stimulatory or inhibitory ->hormones are secreted in pulses, are hydrophilic in nature
->Generally controlled by a negative feedback loop
6 major hormones:
(PRL, LH, FSH, GH, TSH, ACTH)
