Endocrine System

Prepare effectively for your Endocrine System Test with this comprehensive review guide. The assessment is worth 57 points, with a minimal proficiency requirement of 34.5. Study key concepts including the actions of non-steroid and steroid hormones, the feedback loop for blood sugar maintenance, and the reliability of urine versus blood glucose testing. Explore case studies, the interactions of TRF, TSH, and thyroxine, as well as the effects of endocrine disruptors. Be able to distinguish between positive and negative feedback loops and understand melatonin's role in sleep.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Endocrine System Test Review (Worth 57 pts—minimal proficiency is 34.5)

  2. Anatomy is 5 pictures/microscope slides Remember to study your To-Know list! Those are the only terms that are fair game for the Anat. Rest of this ppt is the Physiology portion (notecardable items) Endocrine Review

  3. Endocrine Review • Action of non-steroid (protein) hormones vs Action of steroid hormones— howdoes each do it’s job? • Brief overview of Steroid types

  4. Endocrine Review • Draw out the feedback loop for the maintenance of blood sugar levels. (full figure 8…both high and low blood glucose)

  5. Endocrine Review • Diabetes lab…which is more reliable as an indicator, urine glucose or blood glucose? Why? • Case Study #1: 7 points • Case Study #2: 5 points

  6. Endocrine Review Thyroid lab— be able to describe how TRF, TSH and Thyroxine work in harmony. • Explain the body signals that would lead to an increase or decrease of one of these…make sure you can write out the loop! Work it through and be complete!

  7. Endocrine Review • How do endocrine disruptors interfere with hormonal signaling processes? • Given the symptons of hypothyroidism, why is this disease often overlooked/underdiagnosed? (These are from your formative work)

  8. Endocrine Review • How are positive feedback loops different than negative feedback loops? • Melatonin and it’s role in sleep cycle (ID components of loop)

  9. Endocrine Review • Matching: 4 separate Sometimes it’s gland to hormone, other times it’s hormone to function
