Q

three types of signalling for hormones:

A
  • endocrine signalling : horomenes act on target cells distant from site of synthesis as: adentocorticode that stimulates the release of steroids
  • paracrine ( local regulators ): signalling molecules on the neighbouring cells as serotonin
  • autocrine ( local regulators ) for signally the sane cell to amplify the signal as cytokine interleukin 1 for fever

Q

the four major chemical goups for hormones:

A

1- peptide hormone: long chain of amino acids as: ocytoxin and vasopressin
2- amino acid derivatives: derived from a.a ( tyrosine , trytophron ) as adrenaline
3- steroid hormone: derivates of chlosetol as: testastrione, striven, cortisol
4- fatty acids derivatives : derived from arachodinc acids as: prostaglandins
