e.g. sentences from lectures
What is the endocrine system!
•  releases chemicals into blood for distribution throughout the body. "
•  releases hormones altering metabolism of many tissues / organs simultaneously. "
•  produces effects that can last for hours, days, and even longer. "
•  control ongoing metabolic processes. "
•  many endocrine tissues have non-endocrine functions."
•  complex endocrine responses usually involves hormones from the hypothalamus."
•  Berthold showed that CC with testis transplant displayed male traits (comb & behavior). "
What is a hormone!
•  secreted to blood for transport to distant targets. "
•  exerting its effect at very low concentrations. "
•  related to a verb meaning "to excite or arouse." "
•  whose meaning is continually being challenged. "
•  a tropic hormone is one whose function is to stimulate another hormone secretion."
•  some are aminoacid derivatives, others are peptides/proteins, and other are lipids."
•  some have sub-units (LH, FSH, TSH, HCG, PMSG)."
•  their targets have specific receptors (high affinity / low capacity)."
•  hypophysiotropic hormones are neurohormones controlling AP function."
•  which endocrine organ produce which hormone in response to which main stimulus. !
•  which is the main effect of each hormone and which is its main negative feedback control."

e.g. sentences from lectures
What are endocrine actions and endocrine disruptors!
•  hormones control of enzymatic reaction rates "
•  hormones control molecule transport across membranes hormones control gene expression and protein synthesis"
•  receptors altered in quantity when low or high amount of its hormone is present"
•  water soluble hormones bind membrane receptors and affect 2nd messengers and signaling cascades"
•  liposoluble hormones bind transcription factors and affect protein synthesis"
•  endocrine disruptors are environmental chemicals affecting the endocrine system."
•  some endocrine disruptors are in sewage (E from contraceptives and dioxins from paper products)."
Which are structures and control elements in the endocrine system!
•  membranes are phospholipids bilayers (tails inside) interspersed with proteins."
•  a portal system like the one from gut to liver links the hypothalamus with the AP."
•  a steady state is maintained by homeostatic mechanisms (eg. Insulin and glycemia)."
•  ligands are chemicals that bind to a receptor."
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
downregulation, expression of fewer cell surface receptors, as part of a -FB mechanism."
up/down regulation is due to alterations in the rate of receptor turnover."
permisivness, interaction through which one hormone "allows" another hormone to be effective.
second messengers are intracellular signals elicited by hormones / neurotransmitters."
G proteins link the first and second messenger in signal transduction."
signal transduction chains (Gs,Gi,AC,cAMP,PKA); (Gq,PLC,DAG,PKS,IP3,Ca,calmodulin,CK)."
most widely found 2nd messenger is cAMP."
