|
Features of Endocrine Glands
|
Ductless--> blood supply
vascularized small |
|
classical hormone requirements
|
produced by an organ in small amount (low blood concentration)
released into bloodstream specific action exerted far away |
|
Tropic hormones
|
regulate the function of other endocrine system organs
hypothalamus and pituitary can coordinate endocrine throughout the body -->Complex neuroendocrine pathways |
|
Nontropic hormones
|
direct effect on nonendocrine organs
--> Simple neuroendocrine pathways |
|
has both tropic and nontropic actions
|
GH
|
|
Hormones derived from single amino acids
|
Amines
Thyroid hormones |
|
Circhoral
|
released every hour
|
|
Ultradian
|
released every ~ 1-24 hrs
|
|
Quotidian (diurnal)
|
daily
|
|
Circatrigintan
|
released monthly
|
|
Circannual
|
seasonal
takes place on a yearly basis |
|
these types of hormones can Circulate freely
|
amines
peptides proteins - growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) in the plasma - IGF binding proteins in the plasma |
|
these types of hormones need carrier
|
steroids
thyroids |
|
Specific transport proteins
|
Thyroid hormone binding globulin (TBG)
Cortisol binding globulin (CBG) Testosterone-binding globulin (TeBG) |
|
Metabolic Clearance Rate (MCR)
|
plasma half-life is inversely related to its MCR.
|
|
MCR of hormone types
|
longest lasting
bound to carriers > peptide > amines |
|
Mammary gland development
|
prolactin
estradiol progesterone glucocorticoids thyroid hormones insulin |
|
Kd
|
: equilibrium dissociation constant
concentration of hormone, at equilibrium to bind 1/2 receptors |
|
polypeptide hormones
|
LH
FSH TSH angiotensin II platelet-activating factors |
|
G protein CR
|
LH
FSH TSH angiotensin II platelet-activating factors prostaglandins neurotransmitters muscarinic cholinergic alpha/beta androgenic receptors serotonin dopamine |
|
Tyrosine Kinase Receptor superfamily
|
EGF, PDGFs, FGFs
insulin IGF-1 |
|
tyrosine kinase basics
|
binding causes receptor to dimerize
auto phosphorylation of Tyr Phosphorylation of other try |
|
Cytokine Receptor Superfamily
|
GH
Prolactin hematopoietic growth factors (IL, INF-gamma) > 2 subunits no intrinsic Tyr phosphorylation --> needs Jak |
|
GPCR transduction pathways
|
adenylyl cyclase (AC)
Phospholipase C (PLC), Directly regulating: Ion channels; kinase |
|
Jak - Stat pathway
|
binding --> receptor to dimerize
--> Jak binds, auto P-lates Jak --> Jak P-lates Stat Stat if the TF => changes gene expression Cytokine receptor superfamily |
