PHYSIOLOGY: THE CELL AND HOMEOSTASIS Angelica D Francisco, MD, MSc
Objectives • Review the structures of the cell and their function. • Review the hierarchy of organization of the human body. • Define the “internal environment” of the cell. • Explain the importance of maintaining constant the conditions in the internal environment.
Objectives • Define homeostasis. • Describe the mechanism of a negative feedback system. • Explain the “gain” in negative feedback systems.
Objectives • Describe the mechanism of positive feedback system. • Explain how the change in positive feedback system can be useful, and potentially harmful.
PHYSIOLOGY HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY • THE STUDY OF THE FUNCTION AND THE REGULATION OF THE DIFFERENT ORGAN SYSTEMS OF THE BODY COMPARATIVE PHYSIOLOGY CELLULAR & MOLECULAR PHYSIOLOGY
THE CELL • THE BASIC LIVING UNIT OF THE BODY

HOMEOSTASIS WALTER CANNON (1871-1945) HOMEOSTASIS: THE RELATIVELY CONSTANT STATE OF THE COMPOSITION OF THE INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT, ACHIEVED THROUGH HIGHLY COORDINATED PROCESSES. 1926
HOMEOSTASIS CLAUDE BERNARD (1813-1878) “milieu interieur”, 1887 • INDEPENDENCE OF LIVING BODY FROM SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT • INTERNAL vs. EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT “It is the stability of the internal environment that is the condition of a free and independent life.”
HOMEOSTASIS “It is the fixity of the internal environment that is the condition of a free and independent life. All the vital mechanisms, however varied they may be, have only one object, that of preserving (constant) the conditions of life in the internal environment.” Claude Bernard

HOMEOSTATIC CONTROL SYSTEMS DISTURBANCE FEEDBACK CONTROLLER SETPOINT + CONTROLLED VARIABLE EFFECTOR - - CLOSED LOOP SENSOR + RHOADES RA & TANNER GA. MEDICAL PHYSIOLOGY
CONTROL SYSTEMS • NEGATIVE FEEDBACK • A DISTURBANCE ELICITS A RESPONSE THAT RESULTS IN AN EFFECT THAT IS OPPOSITE THAT OF THE CHANGE • eg. THERMOSTAT
CONTROL SYSTEMS EXAMPLE: BODY TEMPERATURE NORMAL, 37OC w/o, 20OC, ROOM TEMPERATURE with 36.5OC
ROOM TEMPERATURE HEAT LOSS FROM BODY BODY TEMPERATURE CONSTRICTION OF SKIN BLOOD VESSELS CURLING UP SHIVERING HEAT LOSS FROM BODY HEAT PRODUCTION RETURN OF BODY TEMPERATURE TOWARD ORIGINAL VALUE
CONTROL SYSTEMS “SET POINT” OR BASELINE RESETTING OF “SET POINT” IN RESPONSE
CONTROL SYSTEMS NORMAL RANGE OF VALUES WITHIN NARROW LIMITS eg. BODY TEMPERATURE, 36.5-37.5 oC APPROXIMATE NONLETHAL LIMITS MAXIMUM LIMITS WITHOUT CAUSING DEATH FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME eg. IN CARDIAC ARREST, THERAPEUTIC HYPOTHERMIA, 33-36 oC
