1. endocrine Cell-hormone-IF-blood-hormone-target cell
:occurs when cells release hormones that act on distant target cells in
the body
2. neuroendocrine neuron-hormone-if-blood-hormone-target cell
:hormones secreted from a neuron, get transported through the
blood to a distant cell
3. paracrine cell-hormone-if-hormone-target cell
:diffuse to and affect nearby cells, like neurotransmitters and growth
factors
4. autocrine cell-hormone-if-cell
:has an effect on the cell by which it is secreted.

5. lipid soluble, so you have solubility with direct action
an intracellular receptor
to *move within the cell*
6. water soluble, so you re- solubility with indirect action
quire a surface receptor
to *get into cell*
7. signal molecule -> binds signal transduction from signal molecule to response
to
receptor protein -> acti-
vates
intracellular signal mole-
cules-> alters
target proteins -> cre-
ates
response
8. signal transduction term that refers to the whole process of getting chemical signal to the
inside of a cell. Think about secondary messengers and cAMP.
9. up-regulation target cell makes more receptors for hormone
10. plasma concentrations two factors that determine target tissue response
and the number of
cell membrane recep-
tors. both increase
11. hyposecretion inadequate hormone release.
a tumor or lesion *destroys the gland*.
12. hypersecretion excess hormone release. a tumor or *autoimmune disorder*
13. general trend in terms of plasma glucose concentration
