LEC 22 Flashcards
what are the two types of glands in the body.
Endocrine
Exocrine
what are the 3 types of exocrine glands in body
Holocrine
Merocrine
Apocrine
which exocrine gland have
- cells accumulate secretory products in cytoplasm and die and disintegrate
- dead cell and products constitute the secretion
- entire cell is secreted
Holocrine glands
which exocrine gland
- secretions are excreted via exocytosis from secretory vesicles opening into a gland’s lumen and flowing through a duct and then onto a free surface of body.
- the gland releases its product and no part of gland is lost or damaged
- most common manner of secretion
Merocrine glands
which exocrine gland
- intermediate, because their secretions gather at the outer ends of gland cells and then pinch off to form secretions
- mammary glands and some sweat glands
Apocrine glands
which molecules bind the receptor and induce all post-receptors events that lead to a biologic effect?
Agonists
Which molecues bind the receptors and block binding, but fails to trigger intracellular signaling events?
Antagonists
what are the four structural types of hormones?
Peptides and proteins
Steroids
Amino acid derivatives
Fatty acid derivatives
which of the four structural types of hormones produces
often as a larger precursor that are cleaved to produce the active form of hormone?
Peptides and proteins
which of the four structural types of hormones produces glucocorticoids mineralocorticoids androgens estrogens progestins?
Steroids
which of the four structural types of hormones produces
thyroid hormones and catecholamines
serotonin and melatonin
histamine?
Amino acid derivatives
which of the four structural types of hormones produces prostaglandis prostachyclins leukotrienes thromboxanes
Fatty acid derivatives
what hormones do steroids produce?
glucocorticoids minerlocorticoids androgens estrogens progestins
what hormones do amino acid derivatives produce
thyroid hormones and catecholamines
serotonin and melatonin
histamine
What amino acid forms thyroid hormones and catecholamines
Amino acid tyrosine
What hormones are derived from amino acid tyrosine
Thyroid hormones
Catecholamines
What amino acid forms serotonin and melatonin
Amino acid tryptophan
What hormones are derived from amino acid tryptophan
Serotonin
