8. Disorders of the Endocrine System: Fill in the table describing disorders of the Endocrine System. Type 1 diabetes mellitus A. Hypersecretion of cortisol – resulting in "moon face" and high blood pressure. Type 2 diabetes mellitus B. Antibodies produced by the immune system stimulate the thyroid gland resulting in hyperthyroidism, often accompanied with protrusion of the eyes. C. Hypersecretion of hGH during childhood causes a notable increase in height. Diabetes insipidus Cushing's syndrome D. Severe hypothyroidism. E. Destruction of the beta cells of the pancreas early in life results in low levels of insulin production. As a result, glucose cannot enter cells. Acromegaly F. Hyposecretion of hGH resulting in slow growth pattern and an unusually small stature. Gigantism Addison's disease G. Hyposecretion of ADH or the kidneys not responding appropriately to ADH causes the body to excrete large volumes of urine, resulting in dehydration and thirst. Myxedema H. Target cells become less sensitive (resistant) to insulin. Most commonly seen in obese people over the age of 35. Pituitary dwarfism 1. Adrenal insufficiency resulting in low production of cortisol and often aldosterone. J. Hypersecretion of hGH during adulthood causes bones of the hands, feet, cheeks, and jaws to thicken. Grave's disease
