Adipocytes vs Adipokines Cytes: cells; stores triglycerides Kines: hormones; control food intake, energy expenditures, lipid storage, insulin sensitivity, etc Obesogens -Chemicals that stimulate fat development and disrupt hormone signals -Can cross placenta and in breast milk, passed down in generations Obesogens exposure routes and examples Placenta, breast milk, intake, pollutants -phytoestrogens -pesticides -plastics -cleaners Leptin -Hormone that inhibits appetite and promotes satiety -Stimulates energy expenditure and insulin sensitizer Melacortin-4 Leptin deficiency, can't stop eating Leptin resistance -defect in transport -inability to cross BBB Causes obesity d/t appetite dysregulation Obesity treatment CBT Bariatric surgery Metabolic abnormality correction Anti-obesity medications Hypothalamus -Regulates food/energy metabolism through orexigenic and anorexigenic neurons -Responsible for reward, pleasure, memory, addictive behavior Orexigenic -promotes appetite stimulates eating -decreases metabolism -leptin inhibits this Anorexigenic -suppresses appetite -inhibits eating -increases metabolism -leptin stimulates this Anorexia of aging Decreased appetite/food intake due to: -reduced energy needs -waning hunger -diminished taste/smell -decreased saliva -delayed gastric emptying

NSG 533 EXAM 3
Blood pressure formula
BP = CO (cardiac output) x SVR (peripheral resistance)


Cardiac output formula
CO = HR x SV
-preload
-contractility
-after load
-autonomic effects
-humoral effects




Primary hypertension
90% cases; no clear etiology


Two main contributors
1. vasoconstriction effect on SVR (obesity, inflammation, insulin resistance)
2. Na/H2O retention effect on blood volume(natriuretic dysfunction, RAAS/SNS)

,Hypertension impact
-Contributes to heart disease, #1 killer, and stroke, #5 killer
-$150-200b/year
-Leading social inequity/disparity


Secondary hypertension
Rare; established etiology and reverses once underlying disease is fixed
-neuro/renal/endo disorders/failure/tumors
-pregnancy induced
-acute stress, drugs




Primary hypertension risk factors
Family
Age (men<55, women>70)
Black
Sodium
Diabetes
Smoking
Obesity/poor nutrition
Alcohol

, Modifiable HTN risk
Smoking, alcohol, diet, obesity, stress


Nonmodifiable HTN risk
Genes, insulin sensitivity, SNS/RAAS activity, cellular mechanism, race


Hyaline sclerosis vs Atherosclerosis
hyaline: glass-like protein accumulation due to age
Athero: accumulation of arterial plaques


Pressure-Natriuresis effect on HTN
Right shift in urine sodium excretion and arterial pressure curve; requires higher
pressure to excrete salt


Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone effect on HTN
1. Overactive ACE/Angiotensin II/At 1 system
2. Underactive At2, MAS receptor


SNS effect on HTN
Vasoconstriction = increased SVR = sustained HTN = remodeling


Metabolic effect on HTN
Adipose cells secrete leptin and inhibit adiponectin = trigHTN pathway
