Mechanisms of Hormone Action
Hormones of same chemical class have similar mechanisms of action. Location of cellular receptor proteins.
Target cell must have specific receptors for that hormone (specificity).
Hormones bind to receptors with high bond strength (affinity).
Low capacity of receptors (saturation).

Lipophilic steroid and thyroid hormones bound to plasma carrier proteins.
Hormones dissociate from carrier proteins to pass through lipid component of the target cell membrane.
Receptors for the lipophilic hormones are known as nuclear hormone receptors.
![Page 18: Chapter 11 Endocrine Glands. Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Hormones Regulatory molecules](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e425503460f94b3408d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Function within cell to activate genetic transcription.
mRNA directs synthesis of specific enzyme proteins that change metabolism.
Receptor must be activated by binding to hormone before binding to specific region of DNA called HRE (hormone responsive element). Located adjacent to gene that will be
transcribed.

Hormones That Use 2nd Messengers
Cannot pass through plasma membrane. Catecholamines, polypeptides, and
glycoproteins bind to receptor proteins on the target cell membrane.
Actions are mediated by 2nd messengers (signal-transduction mechanisms). Extracellular hormones are transduced
into intracellular second messengers.

Binding of epinephrine to alpha-adrenergic receptor activates a G-protein, (phospholipase C).
Phospholipase C splits phospholipid into IP3 and DAG.
Both derivatives serve as second messengers.
Phospholipase-C-Ca++
![Page 29: Chapter 11 Endocrine Glands. Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Hormones Regulatory molecules](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e425503460f94b3408d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

IP3 diffuses through cytoplasm to ER. Binding of IP3 to receptor protein in ER
causes Ca++ channels to open. Ca++ diffuses into the cytoplasm. Ca++ binds to calmodulin. Calmodulin activates specific protein
kinase enzymes. Alters the metabolism of the cell,
producing the hormone’s effects.

Thyroid Hormones
Thyroid gland located just below the larynx.
Thyroid is the largest of the pure endocrine glands.

Production of Thyroid Hormones
I- (iodide) actively transported into the follicle and secreted into the colloid.
Oxidized to (Io) iodine. Iodine attached to tyrosine.
Attachment of 1 iodine produces monoiodotyrosine (MIT).
Attachment of 2 iodines produces diiodotyrosine (DIT).
MIT and DIT or 2 DIT molecules coupled.

Production of Thyroid Hormones
T3 and T4 produced. TSH stimulates pinocytosis into the
follicular cell. Enzymes hydrolyze to T3 and T4 from
thyroglobulin. Attached to thyroid-binding protein
and released into blood.

the lateral lobes of the thyroid gland.
Only hormone secreted by the parathyroid glands.
Single most important hormone in the control of plasma Ca++ concentration.
Stimulated by decreased plasma Ca++ concentration.

concentrations. Stimulates lipolysis.
Beta cells secrete insulin. Stimulus is increase in plasma glucose
concentrations. Promotes entry of glucose into cells.
