1. Which cells of the pancreas are the endocrine cells? How were you able to differentiate these cells when viewing the slide? Do these cells make up the majority or the minority of the pancreatic tissue?
2. List the hormones released by the anterior pituitary gland. Identify which type of cell observed in this exercise releases each of the hormones.
3. What are Leydig cells, and how are they distinguished microscopically

Sample A is from a 35 year old male who visited his GP complaining of chest pain during exercise. An ECG taken at rest was normal but ischaemic changes developed on exercise. A family history revealed that his father died of a heart attack at the age of 45 years. The laboratory test results for his fasting blood sample were as follows:
Analyte Patient values Reference range for fasting
blood sample
Sodium 139 135-145 mmol/L
Potassium 4.1 3.0-5.0 mmol/L
Total protein 69 65-80 g/L
Albumin 35 35-47 g/L
Calcium 9.3 9.0-10.5 mg/dl
Lactate dehydrogenase 250 90-190 IU/L
Creatine kinase 129 30-60 IU/L
Asparatate transaminase 70 < 40 IU/L
Gamma glutamyl transferase 30 < 50 IU/L
Total Bilirubin 13 0.4-15 μmol/L
Glucose 12 3.5-5.5 mmol/L
Fructosamine 351 205-285 μmol/L
Cholesterol
Total 7.2 <5.2mmol/L
HDL 1.4 >1.5 mmol/L
LDL ? <3.5 mmol/L
Triglycerides 2.95 <1.7mmol/L
On the gradient gel electrophoresis, plasma sample for this patient showed the presence of small dense LDL particle.

Case 2
Steve is a member of the West Coast Eagles football team. During practice, he suffered a high impact collided with a team-mate and injured the anterior compartment of his thigh. As a result of the collision, his quadriceps femoris muscle were compressed against the femur, resulting in quadriceps contusion or ‘cork thigh’.

A 56 year old woman visited her family doctor for evaluation of a headache that had persisted for nearly a month. Upon questioning the patient, the doctor learned that her left arm, as she put it, "was a bit unwieldy, hard to control and weak." Through examination, the doctor determined that the entire left upper extremity was generally weak. He also found weakness, although less significant, of the left lower extremity. Sensation in the limbs seemed to be normal, although mild rigidity and hyperactive reflexes were present. Expressing concern, the doctor told the patient that she needed a CT scan of her head and explained that there could be a problem within the brain, possibly a tumor or other lesion. The doctor then picked up the phone and contacted a radiologist. After explaining the patient's case, the doctor remarked parenthetically that he believed he knew where the problem was located.
1) Why did the doctor suggest to the patient that there might be a problem within her brain when the symptoms were weakness of the extremities, and then just on one side of her body?
2) How would he know the location of the suspected brain tumor?
3) In which side of the brain and in which lobe would it be?
4) Explain the muscle weakness in terms of neuronal pathways from the brain to the periphery.

A young woman presents at the clinic six weeks after a gastric bypass surgery. She had more than 100 lbs. to lose and so far, has lost 40 lbs. She expected to gain some strength and begin exercising, but she is very weak. She states that at times she is too weak to even comb her hair. She eats small meals several times a day, but has watery diarrhea and is nauseated much of the time. She is losing her hair and is very discouraged. Explain how gastric bypass affects your ability to absorb and use nutrients. Include in your answer specific facts, data, examples,

2.A young mother is in the hospital delivery room. She is progressing slowly through her labor. Her doctor suggests that she get an IV drip with pitocin (oxytocin) in it to accelerate her labor contractions. As the pitocin is added, the uterus contracts harder and harder. This is example of: positive or negative feedback?
