1. Synergistic effects in which two or more hormones act together to produce an effect that is greater than the sum of their separate effects. 2. Permissive effects in which one hormone enhances the target organ's response to a second hormone that is secreted later. 3. Antagonistic effects in which one hormone opposes the action of another. For example, insulin lowers blood glucose level and glucagon raises it.

Why do you have hormones?

Hormones are a kind of biochemical messengers. Most hormones are chemical substances produced by specialized tissue formations called endocrine glands. The substances are secreted directly into the bloodstream, other body fluids, or into adjacent tissues. The purpose of hormones is to regulate metabolic activity of some other organs or tissues of the body.Three different ways hormones act:1. Alter the rate of synthesis of your cellular protein.2. Change the rate of enzyme activity.3. Change the rate of transport of nutrients through the cell wall.

What is the definition of hormones?

A hormone is a chemical compound which is secreted by a gland into the blood and it is carried through blood to a distant site where it acts. Hormones can be divided into five major classes: (1) amino acid derivatives such as dopamine, catecholamines, and thyroid hormone; (2)small neuropeptides such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), somatostatin, and vasopressin; (3) large proteins such as insulin, luteinizing hormone (LH), and PTH produced by classic endocrine glands; (4) steroid hormones such as cortisol and estrogen that are synthesized from cholesterol-based precursors; and (5) vitamin derivatives such as retinoids (vitamin A) and vitamin D. A variety of peptide growth factors, most of which act locally, share actions with hormones. As a rule, amino acid derivatives and peptide hormones interact with cell-surface membrane receptors. Steroids, thyroid hormones, vitamin D, and retinoids are lipid-soluble and interact with intracellular nuclear receptors.
