|
Hormones |
Signaling Molecule (very similar to neurotransmitters) released by a gland (glandular tissue) into the blood (circulates) |
|
|
Target Cells |
Cell affected by hormone, has a protein receptor.Receptor has lock and key fit with the hormone. |
|
|
Types of Hormones |
Steroid Hormone Non Steroids |
|
|
Steroid Hormones |
Steroids are molecules derived from cholesterol.(Cholesterol lipid dissolve other lipids).
Steroids can cross/diffuse through cell membrane (phospholipds). Receptors are inside the cell. |
|
|
Non Steroids |
Molecules derived from amino acids or proteins.(Cannot pass threw cell membrane). Receptors are on cell surface. |
|
|
Steroid Hormone Mechanism (1-4) |
1.) Steroid hormone released into blood and circulates 2.)Leave the blood and enter the target cell (lipid can pass cell membrane) 3.)Enter the nucleus and bind to the receptor(lock and key) 4.)Hormone-Receptor Complex(H-R) targets DNA |
|
|
Steroid Hormone Mechanism (5-7) |
5.) Copy genetic information into RNA. RNA goes to the ribosome 6.)Ribosome produces protein 7.)Proteins can be structure,transport,antibodies,enzymes (Enzymes build things up,break things down, convertone thing to another |
