Q

peptide hormones are

A
  • fast
  • short half life not protein bound (free unbound)
  • not protein bound goes to the kidney and urinated off
  • effects are instantly and gone
  • water soluble
  • outer surface of the cell membrane
  • stored in the vesicles but not released constantly
  • dissolved in plasma

Q

steroid hormones (like cholesterol)

A
  • thyroid hormone
  • progesterone
  • no cell surface receptor
  • effects/target is to the nucleus not at the cell surface
  • lipid soluble hormones(protein bound) long half life
  • inside the cell into the nucleus

Q

cell surface receptor vs G protein

A
  • peptide hormone attaches to the receptor
  • receptor activates G protein
  • G protein cause the effect inside the cell (second messenger)

Q

all hormones are

A
  • made in a pulsatile nature(action) except

Q

all peptide hormones are/ have

A
  • short half life not protein bound (free unbound) except
  • IGF (insulin like growth factor) which is a protein carrier/bound
  • to measure acromegaly and gigantism

Q

case:
what organ disease is associated with low total steroid hormone level
case:
long standing DIABETES and HYPERTENSION (most common cause of nephrotic syndrome) which of the ff blood levels are down due to it

A
  • KIDNEY DISEASE
  • nephrotic syndrome all steroid hormone is excreted due to the hole in the kidney to loose the hormones
  • STEROID HORMONE

Q

only free hormone has a

A
  • target organ effect
  • feedback inhibition
  • regulated
17
Q

case:

in PREGNANCY which hormone goes up

A
  • total T4
  • testosterone and androgen decrease binding globulin
  • female sex hormones increase binding globulins (ESTROGENS)
  • free T4 constant
18
Q

case:

liver disease

A
  • decrease binding globulins
