- Endocrine disruptors can interfere with biological processes by mimicking hormones, activating or blocking the bodys hormone receptors, disrupting the synthesis of hormones, or altering their breakdown. How are these mechanisms or action similar to those of the psychoactive drugs that act at synapses?A __________ is synthesized from amino acids and cannot diffuse across the plasma membrane. a, steroid hormone b. protein hormone c. peptide hormone d. both b and c3.On clinical examination of54-year-old woman the tumor of adrenal cortex was revealed. The glucoselevel in blood was increased. What is the main cause of hyperglycemia in this case? For answer:a)indicatethe hormone, which is elevated in the blood of patient;b)discuss this hormone synthesis and themechanism of signal transduction in target tissues; c)describe the metabolic pathways can be stimulated by this hormone in liver.
- Discuss the following statement: “We wouldhave no idea today of the importance of insulin as a reg-ulatory hormone if its absence were not associated withthe human disease diabetes. It is the dramatic conse-quences of its absence that focused early efforts on theidentification of insulin and the study of its normal role inphysiology.”6. Increasing the aldosterone secretion during prolonged muscle activity in hot weather allows you to compensate for the sodium loss in sweat and remove the accumulated excess of potassium. Explain these biological effects of the hormone during exercise. For answer: a) draw the structure of the hormone, name the precursor for its synthesis, site of synthesis, signals for secretion, target cells; b) draw a diagram of the hormonal signal transduction starting with hormone interaction with the cell receptor;1.20-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus was hospitalized with confused consciousness,fever,nausea,vomiting and fruity smelling breath.
