introduction endocrine Flashcards
steroid hormones are
- slow
- long half life
- protein bound
- needs time
- cannot be urinated off
peptide hormones are
- 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
steroid hormones (like cholesterol)
- 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
steroid hormones
- goes to second messenger to make new proteins
- mRNA
- protein synthesis
peptide hormones
- activates protein that is already made
not protein bound
- DHEA adrenal androgen
- water soluble due to its sulfated
all steroid hormones are
- protein bound except
- DHEA (sulfated)
cell surface receptor vs G protein
- peptide hormone attaches to the receptor
- receptor activates G protein
- G protein cause the effect inside the cell (second messenger)
second messengers (phosphorylating)
- cAMP
- Ca 2+
- IP3 phosphorylating
- DAG
all hormones are
- made in a pulsatile nature(action) except
- THYROID (THYROXINE) which is made constant, released all the time
insulin
- does not effectively use cAMP
- it has TYROSINE KINASE as a receptor mechanism
all peptide hormones are/ have
- 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
lowers the binding globulins
- LIVER DISEASE
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
- KIDNEY DISEASE
- nephrotic syndrome all steroid hormone is excreted due to the hole in the kidney to loose the hormones
- STEROID HORMONE
peptide hormones (urinated) washed out
- FSH
- LH
- GROWTH HORMONE
