1a. Most endocrines are controlled by • Trophic factors
1b. A few endocrines are controlled by inhibition • Somatostatin • PIF
2. Hormone Secretions can be controlled by • Positive feedback • Negative feedback
Feedback can be: • Short Loop Feedback • Long Loop Feedback
Long Loop Feedback Short Loop
Interactive affect of multiple hormones • Synergism • Permissiveness • Antagonism
Pathologies • Diabetes MellitusType I • Diabetes Inspidius • Hyperthyroidism • Graves Disease • Hypothyroidism • Cushings Disease: secondary hypersecretion • Addison’s Disease: primary hyposecretion
Diabetes Mellitus Type I Insulin deficiency Type II Non-responsive to insulin
Cushing Disease • Excess gluconeogenesis: hyperglycemia • Muscle breakdown • Lipolysis • Paradox: central weight gain
