All anterior pituitary hormones except growth hormone affect their target cells via a cyclic amp second-messenger system.

Biology

MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago
5 0
The above statement is true, that all the hormones from the anterior pituitary affect their target cells via cyclic AMP second messenger system except the growth hormone. Cyclic AMP is an important second messenger that is formed when the membrane enzyme adenylyl cyclase is activated by the alpha sub unit of a G protein. The Cyclic AMP in turn then goes on to activate specific proteins. The hormone which is the first messenger binds to receptor , the receptor then activates G protein, the alpha sub unit of G protein activates adenylate cyclase which converts ATP to cAMP which then activates protein kinases.

How would a object blocking a bronchus affect this air flow
Blababa [14]

Because the lung has two bronchi, it can still function if one bronchus is blocked by a foreign object. No gas exchange will happen to the affected side, and the other lung will compensate for the loss of air. The blocked portion though can become inflamed and can lead to infection and damage.
