Document Summary
Please note that these series of notes are intended to make the material presented in the textbook easier to understand. They are not word-for-word from the textbook, but rather important concepts from the textbook. These notes will definitely help on the final 50% exam! To download my other notes, click on my profile. If this note helped you, give it a thumbs up!! The three chemistry types a hormone can exist in: peptide hormone, steroid hormone, tyrosine derivative. These hormones can be distinguished by their solubility in which affects their . Water-soluble - can move freely through the blood. Have trouble diffusing through effector* so peptide hormones attach to a membrane bound receptor. Effector*= target cell of the hormone in which contains a receptor for the hormone. Once a peptide hormone binds to a receptor on the membrane, the common mechanism of action includes. Activating a second messenger system like: camp, cgmp, calmodulin.
