  1. 1st Characteristic of a Steroid Hormone
    Hydrophobic and therefore xported via albumin or some other xport prot.
  2. 2nd characteristc of a Steroid Hormone
    Free form is active
  3. 3rd characteristc of a Steroid Hormone
    Total [Hormone] is measred
  4. 4th characteristc of a Steroid Hormone
    Have a long 1/2 life <vs other hormones> and is measered in hours <vs minutes>
  5. 5th Clinical Chemistry Endocrinology
    Metabolism by Carboxilation, oxidation, reacting w/ SO4 &/or Glucoronic Acid to make water soluble
  6. 6th Clinical Chemistry Endocrinology
    Some have Dinural variation (ex. Cortisol)
  7. 1st characteristic of a Peptide Hormone
    Hydrophilic :. ported in blood in free state
  8. 2nd characteristic of a Peptide Hormone
    1/2 life measured in minutes
  9. 3rd characteristic of a Peptide Hormone
    No dinural variation.
  10. 4th characteristic of a Peptide Hormone
    Measured in total [hormone]
  11. 5th characteristic of a Peptide Hormone
    Share a common structure. Usually simialr alpha subunit with different betas.
  12. 1st Hormone receptor Char.
    Very Specific
  13. 2nd Hormone receptor Char.
    Equilibrium system (ie reaction is reversible)
  14. 3rd Hormone receptor Char.
    can be saturated. (due to limited #, an incr in horm will incr reaction until all recepters are in use, that is saturated)
  15. 4th Hormone receptor Char.
    High affinity. even at [low], they will still bind to receptor
  16. 5th Hormone receptor Char.
    # can vary due to dis, physiology, etc
  17. 6th Hormone receptor Char.
    dysfunc of recpt can be caused by many dis lead to horm being unable to recog and bind.
