Q

neuroendocine

A

where the endocine and nerous system combine, a nervous causes release of a endocrine hrome e.g. postioer piturtoary gland

16
Q

how are peptide hormeosn stored

A

as a preprohrome in adeaave, this is turned into a pro hormone until it is realsed from the storage vesticule

17
Q

where is preprohormone turned into prohorome

A

in the endoplasmic metoolim due to enzyem cleavering teh inactive part

18
Q

where does the prohorme go though to becoemn the hormone

A

though gogli paparat to fold it correclty and take off the inactive peptide fragments using enzymes , this is then seacreta as a veislce

19
Q

what does teh hormeons go though betwen cell cytoosal and blood palsam

20
Q

are prohomesas acgive or inactive

21
Q

use of c pepeties

A

measure the endocien effect of pancreas as it is only produced from body produced insulin

22
Q

where to peptide hormone work on

A

gpcr or tyrosine kinase receptors

23
Q

how fast is the repsons for peptide hormeons

A

seconds to minties

24
Q

whihc is faster g protien or tyroskine kinsase lnked recpeort

25
what is teh effect of a g protein couple receptor
activates a 2nd messener system and ion channels leading to it modifying existing proteins
26
what is the efffect of a tyrosine kinase linked recport
it alters the gene expersion, leading to a slower longer acting response
27
examples of amine hormones
dopamine, norepiepine, epinepherine (from adrenal medulla) throxiine - t4 and t3 melatonin
28
why is meltonin in different
it is not from tyrosine
29
why can steroid hormones not be stored
they are highly lipiotholic, thus can diffuse straight across the lipd barrier
30
what are exampel of carier proein for steorid hormes and why do they need them
albumin, due to them being poorly solluble in blood
31
half life of steorid hormen
60 - 90 min
32
what typeof steorid hormeonare relased from the gonads
sex steroids
33
what type of steroid hormone are relased format eh placenta
hcg and sex steroid
34
what type of steroid hormones are relased form the kidney
vit d3
35
what type of steroid hormoens are relaed form the adrenal cortex
cortico steroids
36
how to dsori hofmones work
they can cross into tehcl due to ving lipothic and cause a change in the gene exption to increase or decree protein syntehis - through work on cytoplasmic or nuclre recpots also can act on surface cell report to illicit a rapid repsoen
37
how long do steroid hormes awork for
days or weeks due to them chaign gene expression
38
benifit of steroid hormeons being ina carrier
it allows for nly a small aound in circaiton increase the half life as there is a resovoid
