front 1 Aldosterone | back 1 increases K+ excretion and reduces Na+ excretion to balance Na1 balance thats controlled by K+ and Na+ concentrations in ECF, levels of ACTH from ant. pituitary and renin-angiotensin system in the kidney |
front 2 Aldosterone increases NA+ that | back 2 increases water retention osmotically (long term; increase in blood volume and blood pressure) |
front 3 Cortisol | back 3 responds to stress controlled by ACTH secretion and daily rhythm |
front 4 Cortisol promotes: | back 4 gluconeogenesis and release of glucose |
front 5 Cortisol inhibits: | back 5 inflammation and depresses the immune system |
front 6 Hydrodrenalism | back 6 Adison's disease: results from insufficient secretion of all adrenocortical hormones |
front 7 Hyperdrenalism | back 7 Cushing's disease: results from excessive secretion of cortisol by adrenal glands |
front 8 Adrenal Medulla | back 8 secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine under control of SNS |
