The Endocrine System• A communication system
– Nervous system = electrical communication– Endocrine system = chemical communication
• Slower responding, longer lasting than nervous system
• Maintains homeostasis via hormones– Chemicals that control and regulate cell/organ
activity– Act on target cells
![Page 3: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

The Endocrine System
• Coordinates integration of physiological systems during rest and exercise
• Maintains homeostasis during exercise – Controls substrate metabolism– Regulates fluid, electrolyte balance

1. Steroid Hormones• Derived from cholesterol
• Lipid soluble, diffuse through membranes
• Secreted by four major glands– Adrenal cortex (cortisol, aldosterone)– Ovaries (estrogen, progesterone)– Testes (testosterone)– Placenta (estrogen, progesterone)
![Page 6: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

2. Non-steroid Hormones
• Not lipid soluble, cannot cross membranes• Divided into two groups
– Protein/peptide hormones• Most nonsteroid hormones• From pancreas, hypothalamus, pituitary gland
– Amino acid-derived hormones• Thyroid hormones (T3, T4)• Adrenal medulla hormones (epinephrine,
norepinephrine)
![Page 7: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Hormone Secretion• Secreted in bursts
– Plasma concentrations fluctuate over minutes/hours
– Concentrations also fluctuate over days/weeks
*What triggers or regulates hormone bursts?
Secretion regulated by negative feedback
![Page 8: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Neuroendocrinology
Blood Hormone Concentration
Determined by:1. Rate of secretion of hormone from endocrine
gland• Magnitude of input• Stimulatory versus inhibitory input
2. Rate of metabolism or excretion of hormone• At the receptor and by the liver and kidneys
3. Quantity of transport protein• Steroid hormones
4. Changes in plasma volume
![Page 9: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Hormone Activity
• Plasma concentration:– Cells change sensitivity to hormones– Number of receptors on cell surface can change
• Downregulation: number of receptors during high plasma concentration = desensitization
• Upregulation: number of receptors during high plasma concentration = sensitization
![Page 10: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Hormone Receptors• Hormone effects are limited by hormone-specific
receptors
• No receptor on cell surface = no hormone effect– Hormone only affects tissues with specific receptor– Hormone exerts effects after binding with receptor– Typical cell has 2,000 to 10,000 receptors
• Hormone binds to receptor: hormone–receptor complex
![Page 11: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

3. Prostaglandins
• Third class of (pseudo)hormones
• Derived from arachidonic acid
• Act as local hormones/ immediate area– Inflammatory response (swelling, vasodilation)– Sensitize nociceptor free nerve endings (pain)

Hormones: Regulation and Action
Posterior Pituitary Gland
• Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)– Reduces water loss from the body to maintain
plasma volume• Reabsorption of water from kidney tubules to capillaries
– Release stimulated by low plasma volume• Due to sweat loss without water replacement = less
water in urine
– Increases during exercise >60% VO2 max• To maintain plasma volume

Adipose Tissue Is an Endocrine Organ
• In addition to storing triglycerides, adipose tissue also secretes hormones– Leptin
• Influences appetite• Enhances insulin sensitivity and fatty acid oxidation
– Adiponectin• Increases insulin sensitivity and fatty acid oxidation
• With increased fat mass (obesity)– Higher leptin levels and lower adiponectin– Leads to type 2 diabetes and low-grade inflammation

Hormones: Regulation and Action
Pancreas• Both exocrine and endocrine functions• Secretes:
– Insulin (from cells)• Promotes the storage of glucose, amino acids, and fats• Lack of insulin is called diabetes mellitus
– Glucagon (from cells)• Promotes the mobilization of fatty acids and glucose
– Somatostatin• Controls rate of entry of nutrients into the circulation
– Digestive enzymes and bicarbonate • Into the small intestine
![Page 31: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Endocrine Regulation of Metabolism:Pancreas
• Insulin: lowers blood glucose– Counters hyperglycemia, opposes glucagon– Glucose transport into cells– Synthesis of glycogen, protein, fat– Inhibits gluconeogenesis
• Glucagon: raises blood glucose– Counters hypoglycemia, opposes insulin– Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis
![Page 32: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise
• Glucose must be available to tissues
• Glycogenolysis (glycogen glucose)
• Gluconeogenesis (FFAs, protein glucose)
![Page 33: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise
• Adequate glucose during exercise requires– Glucose release by liver– Glucose uptake by muscles
• Hormones that circulating glucose:– Glucagon– Epinephrine– Norepinephrine– Cortisol
![Page 34: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise
• Circulating glucose during exercise also affected by– GH: FFA mobilization, cellular glucose uptake– T3, T4: glucose catabolism and fat metabolism
• Amount of glucose released from liver depends on exercise intensity & duration
![Page 35: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise
• As exercise intensity increases:– Catecholamine release – Glycogenolysis rate (liver, muscles)– Muscle glycogen used before liver glycogen
• As exercise duration increases– More liver glycogen used– Muscle glucose uptake liver glucose release– As glycogen stores , glucagon hormone levels
![Page 36: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
Blood Glucose Homeostasis During Exercise
• Plasma glucose maintained through four processes:
1. Mobilization of glucose from liver glycogen stores
2. Mobilization of FFA from adipose tissue • Spares blood glucose
3. Gluconeogenesis from amino acids, lactic acid, and glycerol
4. Blocking the entry of glucose into cells• Forces use of FFA as a fuel

Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise
• Glucose mobilization = only half the story
• Insulin: enables glucose uptake in muscle
• During exercise– Insulin concentrations – Cellular insulin sensitivity – More glucose uptake into cells, use less insulin

Hormonal Control of Substrate Mobilization During Exercise
Role of insulin & Glucagon: Fast-Acting Hormones
• Insulin– Uptake and storage of glucose and FFA – Plasma concentration decreases during exercise– Decreased insulin response following training
• Glucagon– Mobilization of glucose and FFA fuels– Plasma concentration increases during exercise– Decreased response following training
• Insulin & glucagon secretion influenced by catecholamines
![Page 40: Hormonal Response to Exercise](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061500/56816571550346895dd806bf/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine• Also Fast-acting hormones
• Maintain blood glucose during exercise – Muscle glycogen mobilization– Increasing liver glucose mobilization– Increasing FFA mobilization– Alter glucose uptake
• Plasma E and NE increase during exercise– Also related to increased heart rate and blood pressure
during exercise
• Decreased plasma E and NE after training
