It is transplanted routinely to treat a variety of blood and bone marrow diseases, blood cancers, and immune disorders. More recently, stem cells from the blood stream (called peripheral blood stem cells) and umbilical cord stem cells have been used to treat some of the same blood-based diseases
Answer:
They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)
Explanation:
Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".
Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.
This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.
This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
Maya is pregnant and the doctor should tell her about the
condition of preeclampsia that this condition <span>can affect other
organs in the mother's body. It can cause kidney damage, liver failure,
neurological symptoms, such as severe headaches, seizures, and fluid on the
lungs and the reason behind this is may be a substance released from placenta.
And due to this the fetus may not get the nourishment and oxygen it needs for
growth. </span>
Answer:
internal receptor binding
Explanation:
This is because steroid hormones are lipids by nature (usually composed of cholesterol) so they are hydrophobic. This means that steroid hormones can easy pass through the membrane and bind to their internal receptors.
Internal receptors also known as intracellular receptors have DNA binding domain and when hormones bind to them DNA-binding site becomes exposed. Hormone-receptor complex gets into the nucleus and binds to regulatory regions of the DNA. Cellular response is gene expression.
I think this answer is probably the minerals
