lipid soluble hormones
travel straight through the plasma membrane and into the nucleus of the cell affecting the DNA directly to activate genes that cause the desired action
up regulation
target cells form more receptors in response to rising blood level of the hormone
down regulation
a decrease in the number of receptors preventing the target cell from overreacting to persistently high hormone levels, desensitized cells
amino acid-based hormone
amines, thyroxine, peptides, and proteins.
