Q

Three types of hormones and named based on what?

A

Circulatory and local (paracrine and autocrine)
Named based on where they release neurotransmitters onto target cells.
Circulatory -blood
Paracrine - other cell
Autocrine - urself

Q

4 Steps for the mechanism of lipid solvable hormones

A
  1. DIFFUSES into cell
  2. Activated receptor hormone complex alters GENE expression
  3. New mRNA directs synthesis of specific proteins on RIBOSOMES.
  4. New protein alters CELL activity

Q

Path of water-soluable hormones

A
  1. Binding activates G protein, adenyl Cyclase
  2. ATP —> cAMP
  3. cANP —> kinases
  4. Kinases —> other enzymes
  5. Enzymes catalyse reactions —> response
  6. Phosphodiesterase breaks cAMP
