I have been studied this subject for years and wish to clarify some
doubts and would like to challenge google answers professionals
regarding aging studies...
1---I have created some puzzle and would like to test google
scientists which hormone combination is scientifically incorrect.
-CRH:ACTH
-GnRH:FSH
-TRH:TSH
-PRH:LH
-GHRH:GH
2---Among comparison of hormonal regulation/temperature
regulation/defensive reactions/cognitive functions/reproductive
function, if serious analysis, which does not count as hypothalamus
major function?
3---The elder population is 2-3 times more at risk for adverse drug
reaction, but i am confused that which of the following is less
related?
-renal and hepatic function
-cumulative insults to the body
-decreased number of medications
-non-compliance
-altered pharmacokinetics.
4---Regarding growth hormone and aging, if you were me, which sounds
reasonable to you
-injected GH may increase muscle and bone mass in men?
-GH therapy appears to increase mortality of certain patients?
-hGH enhancers reverse aging and burn fat?
5---incidence of cancer/bacterial diseases/viral disease/autoimmune
disease, of which involves alterations of immune function increases
with age?
6---when talking about glucocorticoid action, can it
-increase cellular absorption of glucose by liver?
-increase bone resorption?
-increase immune suppression?
7---regarding to hypothalamo-Pituitary-Axis (HPA) system, any support
of the following statement and if each statement are correct?
-there are no significant changes in healthy, non stressed, elderly?
-There is a decreased secretion of glucocorticoids from the adrenal medulla?
-Cortisol is metabolized at slower rate by liver?
-there is decreased urine cortisol excretion compensating for any
decreased production of cortisol?
-epinephrine secretion may increase?
8---as the truth that hormesis may promote longevity through similar
mechanisms and which of the following is the less factor:
-DNA repair?
-Adaptation to stress?
-immune function?
-neurology?
-growth?
9---can i say "atrial fibrillation/weight loss/exophthalmos/goiter are
ALL the signs of hyperthyroidism???"
10---can i say "increased mortality is related to the fact that in men
with lower DHEA, but not in women?" |
