HomeostasisBaby Dies From Overdose At Children’s HospitalChildren's Hospital CEO Dr. Tom Hansen said a nurse in the intensive care unit"administered 10 times the intended dose of a medication, calcium chloride." Headded, "The infant was profoundly fragile and succumbed to complications."http://www.komonews.com/news/local/103907864.htmlhttp://www.kirotv.com/news/25191587/detail.htmlhttp://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2013016258_infantdeath29m.html?syndication=rss3
Building an Organism (and theway we approach this course)• Chemical Level: atoms (e.g. carbon, hydrogen and oxygen)combine to form molecules (e.g. glucose C 6 H 12 O 6 )• Cellular level:– Smallest living units in organisms are cells– Cells contain organelles, each with a function (e.g.mitochondria produces energy in the form of ATP)• Tissue level - groups of similar cells that perform a function(e.g. form a barrier like epithelial tissue).– 4 types of tissue: epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous• Organ level – At least two different types of tissues(connective and muscle) that together perform a commonfunction (e.g. heart)• Organ system level – consists of different organs that workclosely together (e.g. cardiovascular system)5

How to Succeed• This may be a difficult class for you but there is lotsof support to make it easier and with hard work, youcan succeed.• I am here to help you learn the material so please askquestions regularly both in person and by email. We’llpractice this.• Please expect 7 – 14 hours of reading and studyingeach week in addition to class sessions• Tutoring is available (OPEN LAB – TBA)• The pace is fast so missing class is not recommended• Form study groups this week• I hope you will work hard, learn a lot and have funalong the way.26
4 Exams and 5 Quizzes:Quizzes/Exams– Check Website for Updated Quiz/Exam Schedule. Thesedates are tentative until confirmed.– Combination of objective questions: multiple-choice, matching,true/false and fill-in-the-blank plus short answer, shortessay, and diagram and model labeling.– We will have mini-reviews before each test so that you canassess your exam readiness and study accordinglyStrict Exam Rules: Tests may not be rescheduled or made-up due totardiness or absence. Students with extraordinary circumstancesshould discuss them with the instructor as soon as the situationoccurs.27
Weekly HomeworkYou will have weekly homework assignments that mayinclude answers to lab worksheets, study questions,short analyses of papers we read together, discussionboard posts, etc.Homework will typically be assigned on Mondays and bedue on Sundays via Angel drop box or Mondays at thestart of class.No late work will be accepted.28
Lectures• My powerpoints will be posted on the course websitebefore lecture• Lecture slides may not cover ALL the material you willfind on exams (but the vast majority of my examquestions come from lectures, labs, and my studyquestions that guide your reading).29
Questions?30
Homeostasis (homeo = similar + stasis = condition):ability to maintain a relatively stable internalenvironment in response to an ever-changing outsideworldAll body systems work togetherto maintain a stable internalenvironment in the face ofvarious challenges(temperature, fluid balance,energy availability)The internal environment ofthe body is in a dynamic stateof equilibriumEX: temperature regulation:sweat, shiverFailure to function within anormal range for a number ofdifferent variables results indiseaseEX: hypothermia,hyperthermia AND diabetes,cancer31
1. Challenge (stimulus) produces a change in body statusthat shifts it out of balance2. Physiology responds to maintain return the variable tobalance (homeostasis)32
Homeostatic ControlMechanisms• Challenge produces a change in body status• Physiology responds to maintain homeostasis• Components:– Variable – Regulated factor/event– Receptor/Detector – Monitors the environments and responds toa challenge (stimulus)– Control center – Determines the set point at which the “variable”is maintained and compares the current level of the variable tothe regulated “setpoint”.• Intrinsic: cell or tissue autoregulates• Extrinsic: nervous system or endocrine system– Effector – Provides the means to respond to stimulus to returnvariable to “setpoint”33
Homeostatic RegulationExample: Householdtemperature control1. Variable that is regulated2. Receptor: monitors thevariable (receives andtransmits “stimulus”)3. Control Center: integratesinformation and compares itto a “set point” (decides onappropriate response) &transmits command4. Effector: receives &executes response to stimulus34
Maintain Room Temperatureat 68 F?35
Negative Feedback Loop RestoresHomeostasis (Temperature)• In negative feedback systems the response of theeffector negates or opposes the stimulus (shuts offthe original stimulus)– Too hot > effector leads to less hot (sweat, increase skinblood flow, decrease metabolism)– Too cold > effector leads to less cold (shiver, behavioralchanges, increase metabolism)• Responses are often controlled by nervous andendocrine systems (e.g. brain regulates body temp) =EXTRINSIC CONTROL butsometimes controlled at the cell and tissue level =AUTOREGULATION or INTRINSIC COTNROL36
Body temperature (C°)Human thermostatTime37
Matinain Body Temperature @?38
Fever?39
Aside: Pyrogens change the temperaturecontrol center “set-point” to a new higherlevel.Fever = higher body temperature,often accompanies bacterial or viralinfectionsBlood flow shifted to core to conserveheat, shivering, increase inmetabolic rateChills stop when higher temp reachedBenefits of a higher temperature:• Inhibits bacterial growth• Speeds up metabolic rxns forrepair• Increases delivery of white bloodcells to infection sites40
Negative Feedback: Blood glucose regulation41
Negative Feedback:Fluid/Electrolytebalance42
Definition: enhances theoriginal stimulus causing agreater deviation from theset point.Activates infrequent eventsthat require immediateactionMost are not related to themaintenance ofhomeostasis.Positive feedback oftenresults in disease.Examples:Blood clotuterine contractions in childbirth(stretch releases oxytocinfrom posterior pituitary),CancerPositive Feedback43

Digestive System Organs – Gross Anatomy47
Structure - Function: MicroscopicAnatomy4 layered, hollow tube that extends from themouth to the anus.Structure of the 4 layers varies along the tubeand reflects the function in each area.– Esophagus: conducts food to stomach (noprocessing of food)– Stomach: secretes acid and mixes food withacid (proteins are denatured and somedigestion)48
Integration of Physiology and Anatomy:Structural changes indicate disease anddisruption of “function”Barrett’s esophagushttp://daveproject.org/ViewFilms.cfm?Film_id=122Chronic acid reflux – leak of acid from stomachinto esophagus damages tissue. Patient is 59years old with obesity, diabetes and a historyof acid reflux (heartburn). The doctor takesa closer look with a camera and is able todetect changes in the innermost layer of thedigestive tract right at the junction betweenthe stomach and the esophagus.Tissue samples were taken (biopsy) and sent to alab for examination with a microscope.A closer look revealed “cancerous changes”consistent with Barrett’s esophagus.Normal esophagus liningWhat to do? Surgery to remove or wait and see.Little can be done in the long-term. Precancerous.Diseased esophagus lininghttp://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/barretts/49
Structure-Function Disruption = DiseaseGene mutation (DNA) disrupts muscle structure and function and causes eventualdeath.Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Leading genetic muscle disease, affects 1 in 3000 males (.02% of USpopulation) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAP2SG3IAgI&feature=relatedAt about age 5 something appears to go wrong with skeletal muscle… eventually people (usually young men)with this disease die.50
