Presentation Transcript


  1. STRESS • Stress (ambiguous term): • The event: A threat (real or implied) to homeostasis (often called a stressor) • The response: the physiological response to the threat • The condition: the physiological state that results • Stressors • Physiological stress • Physical stress • Emotional stress

  2. Phases of the stress response • Time frame of hormonal response • Modulation of the Stress Response • Stress in Humans: How can we cope?

  3. Phases of the stress response • Alarm Phase • Resistance Phase • Exhaustion Phase

  4. Sympathetic Neuron Releases norepineprhine onto these tissues Adrenal Gland epinephrine Alarm Phase:Catecholamines: epinephrine and norepineprhine

  5. Epinephrine and Stress

  6. Catecholamines--what do they do? • Metabolic: • Cardiovascular: • Respiratory:

  7. Phases of the stress response • Alarm Phase • Resistance Phase • Exhaustion Phase

  8. STRESS hypothalamus pituitary adrenal Glucocorticoids (cortisol, corticosterone

  11. Two Examples from Human Studies Adult men Kids Kirschbaum et al., 1995 Buske-Kirschbaum et al., 1997

  12. Effects of Glucocorticoids Emergency Life History Stage • Increase circulating glucose • Suppress the immune system • Suppress reproductive behavior • Suppress growth • Multiple behavioral effects, dependent on species… • e.g. • Induce territory abandonment • Increase foraging • Reduce parental care

  13. The stress responsealarm and resistance • Maximizes glucose in the blood • Maximizes glucose and oxygen delivery to critical tissues • Shuts down non-critical activities (redirects physiology and behavior) • Digestion • Reproduction • Growth

  14. Phases of the stress response • Alarm Phase • Resistance Phase • Exhaustion Phase

  15. High pulse rate, elevated blood pressure Breakdown of protein for gluconeogenesis Hyperglycemia, insulin suppression Decrease reproduction Shut-down digestion Inhibit immune system Artherosclerotic plaques, heart disease, embolisms, strokes Muscle wasting Insulin insensitivity (NIDDM) Infertility, shut-down of reproductive axis Ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome Degeneration of immune tissues Neural degeneration ACUTE RESPONSES TO STRESS CHRONIC STIMULATION

  16. * Binding Globulins Do corticosteroid binding globulins change in response to stress?

  17. Phases of the stress response • Alarm Phase • Activated in seconds • Resistance Phase • Activated in minutes • Exhaustion Phase • Chronic stimulation of Catecholamines and Glucocorticoids

  18. Phases of the stress response • Time frame of hormonal response • Modulation of the Stress Response • Stress in Humans: How can we cope?

  19. Modulation of the adrenocortical response to stress Is it always adaptive to respond hormonally to stress? Effect of Body Condition Effect of Parental Responsibility Effect of Breeding Environment

  20. Modulation of the adrenocortical response to stress Is it always adaptive to respond hormonally to stress? Effect of Body Condition Effect of Parental Responsibility Effect of Breeding Environment
