What else can I help you with?
Where travel proteins?
Cellular (transported) proteins travels around the cell and sometimes destined to the particular organelle where it does its function. Secreted proteins such as albumin or hemogolbin are carrier proteins. Hemoglobin carries oxygen and carbon dioxide all over the body through blood tissue.
What is a sticky coat secreted by most animal cells?
The sticky coat secreted by most animal cells is called extracellular matrix (ECM). It is composed of proteins and carbohydrates and provides structural support, adhesion, and signaling to surrounding cells. The ECM plays a crucial role in cell migration, tissue development, and maintenance of tissue integrity.
What is an adipokine?
An adipokine is a cytokine secreted by adipose tissue.
What hormone is secreted into the bloodstream by fatty tissue?
leptin
Do proteins form hormones enzymes and connective tissue?
Enzymes are catalytic proteins. Connective tissue is, well, tissue and is made of cells, but proteins such as collagen do play an important role. Some hormones are proteins and some are not. An example of a protein that serves as a hormone is insulin. However, hormones such as testosterone or thyroxin are NOT proteins.
Which tissue type would you find contractile proteins?
muscle tissue
How are tissue receptors measured?
in tissue samples removed for a biopsy, while others are secreted into the extracellular fluid (fluid outside the cells) and may be measured in the blood.
Make a definition of neurotrophin?
Neurotrophins are a family of proteins that induce the survival, development and function of neurons. They belong to a class of growth factors.Neurotrophic factors are secreted by target tissue and act by preventing the associated neuron from initiating programmed cell death - thus allowing the neurons to survive.
Does collard greens have adiponectin?
Adiponectin is a protein homone, and is secreted from adipose (fat) tissue. No foods contain this substance.
Which group of messengers exert their effects on cells within the same tissue but not necessarily the cells that secreted the mesenger though?
Paracrines
What is the purpose of proteins in the diet?
growth ,energy and tissue repair
Do proteins help fight tissue?
Yes; antibodies are an example.
