Solutions


importance of cortisol - ANSWER✔✔-no cortisol = dead within days


Adrenal Insufficiency (Addison's Disease) - ANSWER✔✔-below normal levels of cortisol. People with

adrenal insufficency will be weak because cortisol puts energy in the system, have low glucose levels

because cortisol impacts the liver to increase plasma glucose levels, and low BP because less

nor/epinephrine will be released.


Hypercortisolism (Cushing's syndrome) - ANSWER✔✔--high glucose (can be mistaken for diabetes)


-low immune system (cortisol suppresses immune system)


-fragile bones (cortisol breaks down bones and muscles for energy)

cheeks)

-increase glucose catabolism (breakdown sugar to supply E for protein synthesis)


-increase adipose catabolism (breakdown fat tissue for energy to grow new cells)


-increase bone growth at epiphyseal plate (non adult growth, steroids fuse bone plate= no more growth)


why is it a bigger issue when kids break bones? - ANSWER✔✔-growth plate could be damaged and

cannot be repaired


control of growth - ANSWER✔✔--growth hormone (GH= E2) is highest during development and at night


-GH will stimulate IGF-1 (E3) (impacts liver and bones) to increase mitosis, stimulate muscle

development (b/c GH binds to receptors in muscle cells), mobilizes nutrients to convert to proteins to

grow new cells, increases fatty acids and glucose in blood


T3/T4 impact on growth - ANSWER✔✔-allows for growth hormone impact on bones


insulin's impact on growth - ANSWER✔✔-increases protein synthesis and is a possible IGF-1 agonist


sex endocrine's impact on growth - ANSWER✔✔-impact growth out not up


cortisol impact on growth - ANSWER✔✔-inhibits GH secretion and effects


calcium regulation - ANSWER✔✔-99% is crystalline in bones (not static)
