are chemicals released by cells Endocrine glands Higher stability chemical messenger that transports a signal from one cell to another Paracrine Autocrine Hormons
Hormonal cascade – amplification of signal • CNS è target cell • Stimuli • Action potential • Chemical signal • Limbic system • Hypothalamus • Pituitary gland • Target cell - hormon
Hormonal cascade – feed back • t, noise, trauma • Limbic system – hypocampus • ng hypothalamic releasing hormon (corticotropin releasing hormone) • Pituitary gland receptor • Adrenocorticotrope hormon mg • (ACTH és β-lipotropin) t1/2 is longer, as t1/2 (CRH) • Adrenal cortex – zona fasciculata – receptor – cortisol - mg
Various types of receptors Receptors: Peptid hormons Growth factors Aminoacid derivatives Hormons (epinephrine) Hypothetical cell Steroid hormons + receptors Nucleus Thyroid hormons + receptors Cell membrane Cytoplasm Steroid hormons Steroid receptors

A koleszterin • 1.) transz, szék elnyújtott szalagszerű felépítés • 1) 3-b-OH membrán / H2O határ • 3.) 18/19 CH3, váz tömör • 4.) gátolja membrán fluiditását, gátolja a membrán befagyását • 5.) a lipoproteinek alkotórésze, szérum koncentráció – rizikótényező “A koleszterin a biológia leginkább dekorált molekulája. 13 Nobel-díjjal tüntették ki ama tudósokat, akik munkásságuk nagy részét a koleszterinnek áldozták. 1784 óta, amikor először izolálták epekövekből, szinte hipnotikus hatást gyakorolt a tudomány különböző területein dolgozó tudósokra. A koleszterin Janus-arcú molekula. Vízben való oldhatatlansága, mely hasznos a sejtmembránokban, halálhozóvá is teszi.” Michael Brown L Joseph Goldstein: Nobel Lettures 1985
