Study Notes
Catecholamines and Hormone Secretion
- Catecholamines increase insulin and glucagon secretion via β-adrenergic mechanisms
- Catecholamines inhibit insulin and glucagon secretion via α-adrenergic mechanisms
ACTH and Glucocorticoid Secretion
- ACTH produces prompt increases in glucocorticoid secretion
- ACTH increases the sensitivity of the adrenal to subsequent doses of ACTH
Regulation of Aldosterone Secretion
- Principal conditions that increase aldosterone secretion are summarized in Table 20-6
- Systems that regulate calcium homeostasis also contribute to phosphate homeostasis, often in a reciprocal manner
Bone Structure and Nutrient Supply
- Nutrients diffuse from bone extracellular fluid (ECF) into trabeculae
- In compact bone, nutrients are supplied via haversian canals, which contain blood vessels
