....b/c hormones are hydrophobic and therefore do not dissolve in the plasma, they require proteins (ie albumin) to journey through the bloodstream. Once they reach their target cells they easily diffuse through the cell membrane due to their hydrophobicity and bind to their receptor within the cytoplasm. This complex (receptor-hormone complex) then travels to the nucleus of cell to regulate transcription to alter the amount of protein that is made.

How do hormones move around the body?

There is more than one type of hormone: autocrine hormones act on the cells that produce them. Paracrine hormones act on the cells nearby and get to them by diffusing through the fluid that bathes the cells. The most common hormone class is the endocrine hormones- these are secreted from cells and move into the nearby capillaries which carry blood. Once they are in the blood they can reach almost every tissue in the body just by flowing through the blood vessels.
