128Within the Catecholamine synthesis pathway:
[blank_start]Phenylalanine[blank_end] is broken down by phenylalanine hydroxylase to make [blank_start]Tyrosine[blank_end] (the backbone for all amine hormones) is then broken down by Tyrosine hydroxylase (rate limiting enzyme) to produce [blank_start]dihydroxyphenylalanine[blank_end] (DOPA) which in turn in broken down to form Dopamine, then [blank_start]Norepinepherine[blank_end] which is lastly broken down by [blank_start]Phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase[blank_end] (PNMT) to form [blank_start]Epinepherine[blank_end].- APhenylalanine
- BTyrosine
- Cdihydroxyphenylalanine
- DNorepinepherine
- EPhenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase
- FEpinepherine
129Andregenic receptors are sensitive to both E and NE although which one is more responsive to alpha and which to beta receptors?

- BThey move more slowly
- CThey result in new protein synthesis
- DThey are larger
135In the Hypothalamo-Hypophyseal-Adrenal axis:
The [blank_start]hypothalamus[blank_end] produces [blank_start]corticotropin releasing hormone[blank_end] (CRH) that acts on the [blank_start]pituitary[blank_end] which releases [blank_start]ACTH[blank_end] which binds to the [blank_start]adrenal cortex[blank_end] through the melanocortin 2 receptor ([blank_start]MC2R[blank_end]) which finally produces [blank_start]corticosteroids[blank_end].- Ahypothalamus
