Mechanism of hormone action

1. Mechanism of action of peptide hormones- Binding with receptors on plasma membrane of
target cells
Hormone binds with the receptor protein.
Brings conformational change in the structure of receptor protein.
Activated hormone-receptor complex stimulates G-protein.
Stimulated G-protein stimulates adenylate cyclise
Activated adenylated cyclise catalyses conversion of intracellular ATP to cyclic AMP (cAMP)
cAMP stimulates protein kinase
Protein kinase activates specific enymes
Brings about desired changes

2. Mechanism of action of steroid hormones- action on intracellular receptors.

Steroid hormones diffuse through the cell membrane
Steroid hormones bind to the receptor molecules
Hormone-receptor complex bind with specific genes and activate/ inhibit them
Produces specific mRNA molecules
Affects translation- stimulation/ inhibition of specific enzymes.
3. Feedback control of hormone production
Negative feedback
Positive feedback
A few questions to be done:
1. Explain the mechanism of steroid hormone action using a flow chart.
2. Explain the mechanism of peptide hormone action using a flow chart.

Methods of Constructing Index Numbers:

1. Simple/Unweighted Index Numbers: An unweighted index number is constructed when all items like
food, clothing, housing, transport, etc., have equal importance.

There are two methods of constructing simple index numbers:

(a) Simple Aggregative Method: Refer the following videos for the same.
Video 1 - 11 - Economics - V87 - Q1 page 390 Simple Aggregative Method
(b) Simple Average/Arithmetic Mean Of Price Relative Method: Refer the following videos for the
same.

Weighted Index Numbers: In this method, appropriate weights are assigned to all items in such a manner that
the weight of each item reflects its relative importance. These weights are of two types - Quantity weights and
Value weights. Quantity weights are used in weighted aggregative method while value weights are used in
weighted average price relative method.

Weighted index Numbers can be calculated by two methods:

(a) Weighted Aggregative Method

(b) Weighted Average Price Relative Method
Try and understand the above mentioned methods with the help of the following videos:
