(153 cards)
steroid hormones derived from
cholesterol
momoamine/amines derived
derived from tyrosine and trytophan
peptides
protein and polypeptide hormones
protein chain ammount
more than 100 amino acids
polypeptide amino acid length
less than 100 aminos
glycoproteins
protein bound to carbohydrate
can act as a hormone
steroid hormone pathway
started with cholesterol to
progesterone
bruh idk finish later
preprohormone
newly synthesized inactive hormone
prohormone
modifed preprohormone by the ER
prehorhome
inactive untill chem modified in target cell
hydrophilic hormones
manoamines
peptides
glycoprotine
can travel in blood
hydrophobic hormones
steroids
tyroid
melatonin
hormones will only bind to
its very specific receptor
hydrophilic traveling
secreted by exocytosis and travel blood stream
hydrophobic traveling
diffused into blood and binds to carrier proteins to travel
free protien
rano hydrophobic hormone traveling in blood
extracell receptors
bind hydrophilic hormones that cant cross plasma membrane
has a second messenger
intracell receptors
bind hydrophobic hormones that can cross plasma membrane
extracell receptors use
second messenger
intracell receptors translocate to
nucleus
up regulation means
increase number of receptors
sensitivity increased
down regulation means
reduce number of receptors
less sensitive
why does down regulation occur
long term exposure to high hormone concentration
mech of steroid hormone action
1- disassociate from carrier protein
2 enter cell
3. bind to receptor in cytosol
4.translocates to nucleus
5. binds to dna in nucelus
6. turns into mrna
7. then make protein
8. protien effect cell activity
