MECHANISM OF HORMONE ACTION

MEMBRANE RECEPTOR

Receptors present in or on the surface of the cell membrane.

Types Ion channel-linked receptor G –protein couple receptor Enzyme –linked receptor

E.g., Proteins, peptides, & catecholamines

CYTOPLASMIC RECEPTORS

Receptors present in cell cytoplasm

E.g., Steroid hormones.

NUCLEAR RECEPTORS

Receptors present in nucleus & there is direct association with one or more chromosomes.

E.g., Thyroid hormones, Retinoid hormones, Vitamin-D.

G-PROTEIN COUPLE RECEPTOR

ENZYME LINKED RECEPTOR

INTERNAL RECEPTOR

REGULATION OF RECEPTOR

UP REGULATION

DOWN REGULATION

DOWN-REGULATION

Inactivation of some receptor molecules.

Inactivation of intracellular signaling molecules.

Temporary sequestration of receptors inside cell

Destruction of receptors by lysosomes after internalization.

Decreased production of receptors.
