Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss
History: History: Cindy Mallon, an 8-year-old girl in previously good health, has noticed that, in the past month, she is increasingly thirsty. She gets up several times a night to urinate, and finds herself gulping down glassfulls of water. At the dinner table, she seems to be eating twice as much as she used to, yet she has lost 5 pounds in the past month. In the past three days, she has become nauseated, vomiting on three occasions, prompting a visit to her pediatrician.

At the doctor's office, blood and urine samples are taken. The following lab results are noted:
blood glucose level = 545 mg/dl (normal 50-170 mg/dl)
blood pH level = 7.23 (normally 7.35-7.45) urine = tested positive for glucose and
ketone bodies (normally urine is free of glucose and ketone bodies)

Endocrine glands: pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, and pineal glands
Hypothalamus is Neuroendocrine organ Some have exocrine and endocrine functions
Pancreas, gonads, placenta Other tissues and organs that produce
hormones Adipose cells, thymus, and cells in walls of small
intestine, stomach, kidneys, and heart

Hormones: long-distance chemical signals; travel in blood or lymph
Autocrines: chemicals that exert effects on same cells that secrete them
Paracrines: locally acting chemicals that affect cells other than those that secrete them
Autocrines and paracrines are local chemical messengers; not considered part of endocrine system

Two main classes Amino acid-based hormones
Amino acid derivatives, peptides, and proteins Steroids
Synthesized from cholesterol Gonadal and adrenocortical hormones

Hormones act at receptors in one of two ways, depending on their chemical nature and receptor location1. Water-soluble hormones (all amino acid–
based hormones except thyroid hormone) Act on plasma membrane receptors Act via G protein second messengers Cannot enter cell

cAMP signaling mechanism:1. Hormone (first messenger) binds to
receptor2. Receptor activates G protein3. G protein activates adenylate cyclase4. Adenylate cyclase converts ATP to cAMP
(second messenger) 5. cAMP activates protein kinases that
phosphorylate proteins

cAMP signaling mechanism Activated kinases phosphorylate various
proteins, activating some and inactivating others
cAMP is rapidly degraded by enzyme phosphodiesterase
Intracellular enzymatic cascades have huge amplification effect

PIP2-calcium signaling mechanism Involves G protein and membrane-bound
effector – phospholipase C Phospholipase C splits PIP2 into two second
messengers – diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3)
DAG activates protein kinase; IP3 causes Ca2+ release
Calcium ions act as second messenger
![Page 25: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Ca2+ alters enzyme activity and channels, or binds to regulatory protein calmodulin
Calcium-bound calmodulin activates enzymes that amplify cellular response

Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is second messenger for some hormones
Some work without second messengers E.g., insulin receptor is tyrosine kinase
enzyme that autophosphorylates upon insulin binding docking for relay proteins that trigger cell responses

Target cells must have specific receptors to which hormone binds, for example ACTH receptors found only on certain cells
of adrenal cortex Thyroxin receptors are found on nearly all
cells of body
![Page 35: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Target cell activation depends on three factors Blood levels of hormone Relative number of receptors on or in
target cell Affinity of binding between receptor and
hormone
![Page 36: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Hormones influence number of their receptors Up-regulation—target cells form more
receptors in response to low hormone levels
Down-regulation—target cells lose receptors in response to high hormone levels
![Page 37: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Blood levels of hormones Controlled by negative feedback systems Vary only within narrow, desirable range
Endocrine gland stimulated to synthesize and release hormones in response to Humoral stimuli Neural stimuli Hormonal stimuli
![Page 38: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Changing blood levels of ions and nutrients directly stimulate secretion of hormones
Example: Ca2+ in blood Declining blood Ca2+ concentration
stimulates parathyroid glands to secrete PTH (parathyroid hormone)
PTH causes Ca2+ concentrations to rise and stimulus is removed
![Page 39: C H A P T E R 16 Part A 1. Chief Complaint: 8 year old girl with excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss History: History: Cindy Mallon,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022102518/56649d205503460f949f50c6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Hormones stimulate other endocrine organs to release their hormones Hypothalamic hormones stimulate release
of most anterior pituitary hormones Anterior pituitary hormones stimulate

Secreted by corticotropic cells of anterior pituitary
Stimulates adrenal cortex to release corticosteroids

Regulation of ACTH release Triggered by hypothalamic corticotropin-
releasing hormone (CRH) in daily rhythm Internal and external factors such as fever,
hypoglycemia, and stressors can alter release of CRH

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)
Secreted by gonadotrophs of anterior pituitary
FSH stimulates gamete (egg or sperm) production
LH promotes production of gonadal hormones
Absent from the blood in prepubertal boys and girls

Regulation of gonadotropin release Triggered by gonadotropin-releasing
hormone (GnRH) during and after puberty Suppressed by gonadal hormones
(feedback)

Secreted by prolactin cells of anterior pituitary
Stimulates milk production Role in males not well understood

Regulation of PRL release Primarily controlled by prolactin-inhibiting
hormone (PIH) (dopamine) Blood levels rise toward end of
pregnancy Suckling stimulates PRL release and
promotes continued milk production Hypersecretion causes inappropriate
lactation, lack of menses, infertility in females, and impotence in males
