Study Notes

Hormone Classification Based on Chemical Nature

  • Peptide or protein hormones, such as insulin, glucagon, antidiuretic hormone, and oxytocin, have actions mediated via intracellular receptors.

Group II Hormones

  • Action is mediated via cell surface receptors and second messengers in hormones such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), parathormone (PTH), and adrenaline.

Other Hormones

  • Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is another example of a hormone.

Hormone Receptors

  • Hormone receptors have transmembrane domains.
  • Hormone receptors have cytoplasmic or intracellular domains.

This quiz focuses on classifying hormones based on their chemical nature. Learn about peptide or protein hormones such as insulin, glucagon, antidiuretic hormone, and oxytocin.
