Test 3 Review 2nd deck Flashcards
Name the steps in the Adenylate Cyclase Mech/cAMP system
Hormone binds to receptor Activates G protein Turns on Adenylate Cyclase Converts ATP to cAMP cAMP turns on Protein kinase Protein kinase phosphoralates proteins
Adenylate Cyclase Mech/cAMP system is turned off by?
Protein phosphorlation because PDE destroys cAMP
Name the steps in Steroid Hormone mechanism
Hormone binds to carrier protein Detachment from carrier protein into cell Attaches to nuclear receptor Translocated into nucleus Binds to half site on DNA Another hormone bonds to 2nd half site Dimerization Transcription turned on/off
Name the steps in Alpha 1 receptor mech
Hormone binds to receptor
Activates g protein
Phospholipase takes IP3 or DAG
IP3 binds Ca2+
Ca2+ channels open flooding cell with Ca2+
Ca2+ binds to calmodium to form complex
Ca2+/calmodium complex turns on protein kinase
Name the steps in Thyroid hormone mech
Tyrosine turns in to Thyroxine or Tetraiodothromine
Throxine binds to globular protein
Nuclear receptor with already bound to 1/2 site awaits arrival of Hormone
What is the receptor for Thyriod hormone?
9-cis-retonic acid made from vitamin A
Steroid hormones can’t dissolve in ______ even though they are _______ and _______ allowing them to diffuse through membrane
Steroid hormones can’t dissolve in blood even though they are lipid and hydrophobic allowing them to diffuse through membrane
The receptors for steroid hormone are?
Nuclear receptors therefore acting in nucleus to turn transcription on or off
The thyroid hormone calcitrol is produced by?
vitmain A
An example of a post-hormone is?
insulin because it is inactive until it is altered within the endocrine gland
A pre-hormone is?
molecule released is altered by into hormone at arrival of target cell
Where are corticosteriods produced? what kind of hormone are they?
adrenal gland - steroid hormones
The parathyroid hormone does what in the body?
Increases blood calcium levels
causes kidneys to reabsorb calcium
Causes disolution of calcium phosphate by bones
Thyroid hormones bind to receptors which?
regulate gene transcrition
What is produced when two diodotyrosine molecules couple together?

What hormones stimulates uterine contractions during labor and milk-ejection during lactation?
oxytocin
Molecules secreted by endocrine glands that are inactive until the are changed by their target cells are?
pre-hormones
Steroid hormones may be found in?
both cytoplasm and nucleus
What drug blocks the ____ adrenergic receptors because they exacerbate asthma?

brainstem and sacral region of spinal cord
What drug is an ahlpa one agonist that causes vasoconstriction by acting as nasal decongestant?
Psuedophedrine
The pancreas secretes hormones involved in regulation of
blood glucose
Throyoid hormone receptors form __ on their half sites
heterodimers
cAMP activates _________ that activates other enxymes in the cell
protein kinase
What are the collateral ganglion?
Superior mesenteric, celiac and inferior messenteric
The collateral ganglion contain?

What is the role of glucagon in blood glucose homeostasis?
promotes movement of blood gulcose out of skeletal muscle cells
What are the dually innverated organs?
