Steroid Hormones
What is characteristic of steroid hormones such as estrogen?
Steroid hormones like estrogen are lipid-soluble molecules derived from cholesterol, allowing them to easily pass through cell membranes. Once inside the cell, they bind to specific intracellular receptors, leading to changes in gene expression and protein synthesis. This mechanism allows steroid hormones to exert long-lasting effects on various physiological processes, including development, metabolism, and reproductive functions. Additionally, they have a relatively slow onset of action compared to peptide hormones.
Are capillaries permeable to proteins and if so, how does this characteristic impact the movement of substances within the circulatory system?
Yes, capillaries are permeable to proteins. This characteristic allows for the exchange of substances between the blood and surrounding tissues. Proteins can move in and out of capillaries, facilitating the transport of nutrients, hormones, and waste products throughout the circulatory system.
