Chapter 5Hormonal Responses to Exercise EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY Theory and Application to Fitness and Performance, 6th edition Scott K. Powers & Edward T. Howley
Neuroendocrinology • Neuroendocrine system • Endocrine system releases hormones • Nervous system uses neurotransmitters • Endocrine glands • Release hormones directly into the blood • Hormones • Alter the activity of tissues that possess receptors to which the hormone can bind
Blood Hormone Concentration • The free plasma hormone concentration determines the magnitude of the effect at the tissue level • Determined by: • Rate of secretion of hormone from endocrine gland • Magnitude of input • Stimulatory vs. inhibitory input • Rate of metabolism or excretion of hormone • At the receptor and by the liver and kidneys • Quantity of transport protein • Steroid hormones • Changes in plasma volume
Hormone-Receptor Interactions • Hormone affect only tissue with specific receptors • Magnitude of effect dependent on: • Concentration of the hormone • Number of receptors on the cell • Affinity of the receptor for the hormone • Downregulation • Decrease in receptor number in response to high concentration of hormone • Upregulation • Increase in receptor number in response to low concentration of hormone
Mechanisms of Hormone Action • Altering membrane transport • Insulin • Stimulating DNA to increase protein synthesis • Steroid hormones • Activating second messengers via G protein • Cyclic AMP • Ca+2 • Inositol triphosphate • Diacylglycerol
Mechanism of Steroid Hormone Action Figure 5.2
Cyclic AMP “Second Messenger” Mechanism Figure 5.3
Calcium and Phospholipase C Second Messenger Mechanisms Figure 5.4
Hormones: Regulation and Action • Hormones are secreted from endocrine glands • Hypothalamus and pituitary glands • Thyroid and parathyroid glands • Adrenal glands • Pancreas • Testes and Ovaries
Hypothalamus and Pituitary Gland • Hypothalamus • Controls secretions from pituitary gland • Anterior Pituitary Gland • Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) • Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) • Luteinizing hormone (LH) • Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) • Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) • Growth hormone (GH) • Prolactin • Posterior Pituitary Gland • Oxytocin • Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
Hormones Released From the Anterior Pituitary Gland Figure 5.5
Growth Hormone • Secreted from the anterior pituitary gland • Stimulates release of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) • Essential growth of all tissues • Amino acid uptake and protein synthesis • Long bone growth • Spares plasma glucose • Reduces the use of plasma glucose • Increases gluconeogenesis • Mobilizes fatty acids from adipose tissue
The Influence of the Hypothalamus on Growth Hormone Secretion Figure 5.6
Antidiuretic Hormone • Reduces water loss from the body to maintain plasma volume • Favors the reabsorption of water from the kidney • Stimulated by: • High plasma osmolality and low plasma volume • Due to sweat loss without water replacement
Change in Plasma ADH Concentration During Exercise Figure 5.7
Thyroid Gland • Stimulated by TSH • Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) • Maintenance of metabolic rate • Allowing the full effect of other hormones • Calcitonin • Regulation of plasma Ca+2 • Parathyroid Hormone • Primary hormone in plasma Ca+2 regulation
Adrenal Medulla • Secretes the catecholamines • Epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) • Bind to adrenergic receptors • Alpha () • Beta () • Effects depend on hormone used and receptor type
Adrenal Cortex • Aldosterone (mineralcorticoid) • Control of Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion • Na+/H2O balance • Regulation of blood volume and blood pressure • Part of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system • Stimulated by: • Increased K+ concentration • Decreased plasma volume
Change in Renin, Angiotensin II, and Aldosterone During Exercise Figure 5.8
Adrenal Cortex • Cortisol (glucocorticoid) • Promotes protein breakdown for gluconeogenesis and tissue repair • Stimulates FFA mobilization • Stimulates glucose synthesis • Blocks uptake of glucose into cells • Promotes the use of free fatty acids as fuel • Stimulated by: • Stress, via ACTH • Exercise
Control of Cortisol Secretion Figure 5.9
Pancreas • Both exocrine and endocrine functions • Secretes: • Insulin (from b cells) • Promotes the storage of glucose, amino acids, and fats • Glucagon (from a cells) • Promotes the mobilization of fatty acids and glucose • Somatostatin (from d cells) • Controls rate of entry of nutrients into the circulation • Digestive enzymes and bicarbonate • Into the small intestine
Testes and Ovaries • Testosterone • Released from testes • Anabolic steroid • Promotes tissue (muscle) building • Performance enhancement • Androgenic steroid • Promotes masculine characteristics • Estrogen • Released from ovaries • Establish and maintain reproductive function • Levels vary throughout the menstrual cycle

Muscle Glycogen Utilization • Glycogenolysis is related to exercise intensity • High-intensity of exercise results in greater and more rapid glycogen depletion • Plasma epinephrine is a powerful simulator of glycogenolysis • High-intensity of exercise results in greater increases in plasma epinephrine
Glycogen Depletion During Exercise Figure 5.13
Plasma Epinephrine Concentration During Exercise Figure 5.14
Control of Muscle Glycogen Utilization • Breakdown of muscle glycogen is under dual control • Epinephrine-cyclic AMP • Via b-adrenergic receptors • Ca+2-calmodulin • Enhanced during exercise due to Ca+2 release from sarcoplasmic reticulum • Evidence for role of Ca+2-calmodulin in glycogenolysis • Propranolol (b-receptor blocker) has no effect on muscle glycogen utilization
Control of Glycogenolysis Figure 5.16
Changes in Muscle Glycogen Before and After Propranolol Administration Figure 5.15
Blood Glucose Homeostasis During Exercise • Plasma glucose maintained through four processes: • Mobilization of glucose from liver glycogen stores • Mobilization of FFA from adipose tissue • Spares blood glucose • Gluconeogenesis from amino acids, lactic acid, and glycerol • Blocking the entry of glucose into cells • Forces use of FFA as a fuel • Controlled by hormones • Permissive or slow-acting • Fast-acting
Permissive and Slow-Acting Hormones • Thyroid hormones • Act in a permissive manner to support actions of other hormones • Cortisol and growth hormone • Stimulate FFA mobilization from adipose tissue • Enhance gluconeogenesis in the liver • Decrease the rate of glucose utilization by cells

Fast-Acting Hormones • Epinephrine and norepinephrine • Maintain blood glucose during exercise • Muscle glycogen mobilization • Increasing liver glucose mobilization • Increasing FFA mobilization • Interfere with glucose uptake • Plasma E and NE increase during exercise • Decreased plasma E and NE following training
