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
