PHYSIOL 596 Chapter 3: Chapter 3- Hormones
Document Summary
There are many different hormones to do so. They use blood as a transport to other places. Peptides travel easy in blood because they mix in water and plasma. Steroids- bound hormones carried by carrier proteins. Delay of excretion in bile and urine. Albumin, thyroglobulin-binding protein, sex hormone bindign globulin. They also chill oon the cell membrane to help hydrophobic cells get in. What does it do: muscle mass building and lipid breakdown. Pituitary: gh, adrenocorticotropin and thyroid stimulating hormone. Control center: set point (decides what to do) Hypothalamus stimulates release>anterior pituitary releases >growth hormone>bones and liver adaption to exercise. Anabolic hormone"s target cells are in the bones and liver> igf1 (insulin growth like factor 1) Amino acid uptake to muscles is higher. 50% of cells in ap are this. Release growth hormone (191 amino acid polypeptide ) Ghrh (growth hormone receptor hormone) acts on somatotroph. This acts on the adrenal gland to release steroid hormones (cortisol and aldosterone)
