Texts: Case Study 1. Haya is a 15-year-old girl who presents to her family's physician with abdominal discomfort, polydipsia (frequent thirst), and oligomenorrhea (reduced menstruation). Referral to an endocrinologist uncovers the presence of hirsutism (excess body hair), and blood tests discover a lack of the enzyme 21-hydroxylase (involved in the synthesis of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids). These facts suggest that Haya suffers from a form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which shows decreased production of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids but an increase in androgens. Questions: 1. Which mineralocorticoid is responsible for reabsorption of water and Na ions? (0.5 mark) ______________________________________________________________________ 2. Haya is experiencing polydipsia with an abnormal urge to drink fluids at all times. It's a reaction to fluid loss in your body. What other hormone released by the posterior pituitary gland is involved in maintaining a normal blood volume by regulating water reabsorption in the kidneys? (0.5 mark) ________________________________________________________________________ 3. Haya has hirsutism. Which hormone is responsible for these symptoms, and is Haya deficient or oversecreting this hormone? Which endocrine cells produce and secrete this hormone? (1 mark) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4. Haya is missing an enzyme involved in the synthesis of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. Using the information in this chapter, what are the functions of cortisol? (0.5 mark) - Stimulates gluconeogenesis - Depresses the immune responses - Increases the blood glucose levels - All of these choices 5. Considering the symptoms and knowing that Haya's hypothalamus and pituitary gland are normal, what hormones are not being produced, and what are the hormonal treatment options? (0.5 mark) _______________________________________________________________________ 6. Explain why would the hormonal replacement therapy decrease Haya's hirsutism? (0.5 mark)
