What is Homeostasis? Body cells work best if they have the
correct Temperature Water levelsGlucose concentration
Your body has mechanisms to keep the cells in a constant environment.

What is Homeostasis?
The maintenance of a constant
environment in the body is called
Homeostasis
![Page 4: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Controlling Glucose levels
Your cells (muscles, brain, etc) need an exact level of glucose in the blood. (normal serum level 65 – 105 mg)
Excess glucose gets turned into glycogen in the liver
Blood glucose levels are regulated by 2 hormones (chemical messengers) from the pancreas called:
InsulinGlucagon
![Page 5: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Normal Maintenance of Blood Glucose Levels
Eat a meal: Pancreas detects increased glucose
levels in blood and secretes INSULIN This results in uptake of GLUCOSE by:
Cells that need it for energy (including brain)
Liver and muscle cells to be stored as glycogen
Pancreas stops release of Insulin Glucose levels return to normal (80-
120)
![Page 6: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Time
Glucose Concentration
Meal eaten
Insulin is produced and glucose levels fall to normal again.
Glucose levels rise after a meal.
Normal

If there is too much glucose in the blood, Insulin tells the liver to convert some of it to glycogen
Glycogen
Insulin
Glucose in the blood
![Page 8: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Hyperglycemia When blood glucose becomes
high INSULIN allows glucose to enter
cellsLiver
Produce & store glycogen Inhibits glycogen breakdown
Muscles Promotes protein and glycogen synthesis
Fat cells Promotes storage of triglycerides

Hyperglycemia= high blood glucose levels
Drowsy Flushed Thirsty

Normal Maintenance of Blood Glucose Levels, cont.
Blood glucose drops due to NOT eating
Pancreas detects and releases glucagon stimulates the release of glycogen
(broken down to glucose) Glucose is released into the blood
and levels return to normal.
![Page 11: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Time
Glucose Concentration
Meal eaten
Insulin is not produced so glucose levels stay high
Glucose levels rise after a meal. Diabetic

If there is not enough glucose in the blood, Glucagon tells the liver to convert glycogen into glucose.
Glycogen
Glucagon
Glucose in the blood

Hypoglycemia= LOW blood sugar
Glucagon: causes release of glucose from liverbreakdown of glycogen to glucose

Diabetes Some people do not produce enough
insulin. When they eat food, the glucose
levels in their blood cannot be reduced.
This condition is known as DIABETES.
Diabetics sometimes have to inject insulin into their blood. They have to be careful of their diet.
![Page 16: Homeostasis and Diabetes L2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051518/568165cb550346895dd8d52f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The glucose in the blood increases,
Glycogen
Insulin
Glucose in the blood
but there is no insulin to tell the liver to convert it into glycogen.Glucose concentration rises to dangerous levels.

Diabetes MellitusAbsence (or ineffectiveness
of ) insulinCellular resistanceCells can’t use glucose for
energyStarvation mode
Compensatory breakdown of body fat/protein

Diabetes Mellitus HYPERGLYCEMIA: fluid/electrolyte
imbalance. Sodium, chloride, potassium excreted
(frequent urination) Dehydration (thirsty all the time) cells are starving, so person feels
hungry despite eating huge amounts of food. Starvation state remains until insulin is available. (eats too much)

respond to insulin Poor control of liver glucose output Decreased beta-cell function (eventual
failure)

Insulin
Made in beta cells of the pancreas Moves glucose into cells (thus acts
like growth hormone in a way) Moves potassium into cells (can buy
time in emergencies)

low

Diabetic foot care Dry, cracked skin + poor circulation
could = loss of a limb
For the most part nurses don’t trim nails of diabetic clients. Refer to Podiatrist.
