- The administration of specific HGFs is proving to be of considerable clinical importance. Explain with an example?arrow_forwardVasopressin or antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is a peptide hormone synthesized in the a) hypothalamus. This hormone, when present, induces expression of water transport proteins (aquaporins) in the late distal tubule and collecting duct of the kidney to increase water reabsorption. Binding to the receptor triggers an intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (CAMP) pathway. Arrange the following steps of hormone signalling in the proper order by putting 1, 2, 3, etc in the space provided, CAMP activates CAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Recruitment of inactive G-protein made of heterotrimeric subunits which has GDP bound to a-subunit. Conformation change in GPCR. Adenylyl cyclase converts ATP into CAMP. PKA phosphorylates proteins in the cell. A cellular response is seen in the cell. a-subunit with GTP bound activates adenylyl cyclase. Activation of G-protein, thus GDP released an GTP binds to a-subunit. a-subunit of G-protein dissociates from By-dimer. Hormone binding to its…arrow_forwardAnswer the following step by step A) How many milliliters of 1:100 epinephrine are needed for a 5 mg dose?

- ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide) can be considered to act against (in opposition to) the reninangiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS). What then does ANP try to achieve?arrow_forwardExplain the role, using diagrams wherever possible, of G protein coupled receptors mediating the following physiological effects. a. Positive inotropic and positive chronotropic effects in the heart b. Vasoconstriction in vascular smooth muscle cells.arrow_forward50 Which of the following is most likely to stimulate the release of aldosterone from the adrenal gland?
