Commonly Asked Questions
What are Hormones and How Do They Work?
Hormones are chemical messengers produced by glands in the endocrine system that regulate various physiological processes in the body. They are secreted directly into the bloodstream and travel to target organs or tissues where they trigger specific biological responses. Hormones control a wide range of functions, including growth, metabolism, reproduction, mood, and homeostasis (the body’s internal balance).
How Hormones Work:
- Secretion by Glands: Hormones are produced and secreted by endocrine glands such as the thyroid, pituitary, adrenal glands, pancreas, ovaries (in females), and testes (in males).
- Transport Through Bloodstream: Once secreted, hormones enter the bloodstream and travel to specific target cells in different parts of the body.
- Binding to Receptors: Each hormone has specific target cells that have receptors (proteins) compatible with that hormone. When a hormone binds to its receptor, it triggers a response in the target cell.
- Signal Transduction: After binding to the receptor, the hormone initiates a cascade of cellular processes. This could involve activating enzymes, turning genes on or off, or influencing the production of proteins and other molecules.
- Physiological Effects: These cellular changes lead to specific effects in the body. For example:
- Insulin (produced by the pancreas) helps regulate blood sugar levels.
- Thyroid hormones (produced by the thyroid gland) control metabolism.
- Estrogen and testosterone (produced by ovaries and testes) regulate reproductive functions and secondary sexual characteristics.
- Cortisol (produced by the adrenal glands) helps manage stress and control metabolism.
Types of Hormones:
- Peptide Hormones: Made of proteins, such as insulin.
- Steroid Hormones: Derived from cholesterol, such as cortisol and estrogen.
- Amine Hormones: Derived from amino acids, such as adrenaline and thyroid hormones.
Hormones work in a delicate balance. Too much or too little of a hormone can cause health problems, like hypothyroidism (too little thyroid hormone) or diabetes (problems with insulin production or use).
