Chapter 43, Problem 13TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
The probable causes and physiological effects of calcium deficiency in adults.
Introduction:
During the life of a vertebrate, minerals such as calcium and phosphate ions are constantly deposited and withdrawn from the bones. These ions are stored in the endoskeleton from where they are released as per the requirement to maintain the levels of these ions in body fluids.

What happens to the insulin-secreting capacity of a type 2 diabetic
placed on insulin therapy earlier than recommended? Can the external
supply of insulin improve the functional capacity of the insulin-secreting
cells, to some extent by providing some rest to these cells? Is inhaled insulin a suitable substitute for injectable insulin?
Is there, or will there soon be, insulin in the form of a tablet?
Clinical evidence has demonstrated an association between folic acid deficiency and the occurrence of neural tube defects. What methods can be utilized in health promotion to make sure that women of childbearing age have adequate folic acid levels prior to pregnancy?

loop. Consider this example: The hypothalamus releases thyrotropin-releasing
hormone (TRH), which stimulates the pituitary to release the TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone).
TSH then stimulates thyroid gland to release thyroid hormone. When elevated levels of thyroid
hormone are detected by the hypothalamus and pituitary further release of TRH and TSH is
suppressed. B. What would happen to the levels of TRH and TSH if a tumor of the thyroid gland
were discovered resulting in uncontrolled release of the thyroid hormone from
the tumor itself?

- Hormone release and regulation is a complex interplay of control systems, feedback pathways and the concentration of circulating substances. Demonstrate your understanding of how negative feedback systems work by considering what would happen if the usual mechanisms no longer applied. You may like to think about an ectopic source of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), as secreted from a small cell carcinoma of the lung, as an example. In your explanation of how negative feedback systems can be derailed, describe how hormone/s released from the target endocrine organ usually regulate the feedback loop.arrow_forwardExplain how mutations in the following proteins might result in either loss of responsiveness to a given hormone or production of a continuous signal even in the absence of the hormone: a mutation in a growth factor receptor with protein kinase activityarrow_forwardDiscuss the advantages and disadvantages of using genetic engineering to produce human insulin.arrow_forward

After 2 months of treatment, her TSH levels increased by 371.15 % and her T4 levels decreased by 42.7 %. Explain why her TSH levels increased and her T4 levels decreased.arrow_forwardChronic stress or GC exposure can cause insulin resistance. The influence of GC on insulin is complex, but leads to hyperinsulinemia (high circulating insulin levels) and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is typically caused by a decreased number of insulin receptors on the cell surface. Speculate on a mechanism resulting in a decreased number of insulin receptors.arrow_forward
