Sterоid hоrmоnes Cholesterol is the precursor for steroid hormone biosynthesis. Whаt аre three possible sources of cholesterol аnd diagram the steroidogenic delta 4 biosynthetic pathway leading to estrogen (provide all intermediates and enzymes involved). The rate limiting step in steroid biosynthesis is the entry of cholesterol into the mitochondria so that it can be converted into the first intermediate- pregnenolone. Briefly, explain how cholesterol enters the mitochondria. Explain the mechanism of steroid hormone transport in the blood and delivery to target cells and why is understanding transport important when an endocrinologist needs to assay steroids in biological fluids such as blood plasma or saliva? Steroids can have both genomic and non-genomic actions on target cells. Provide a model showing how a steroid can have an increase in gene expression using both (genomic and non-genomic) signaling pathways. Please provide in your response the location of putative receptors and major proteins that lead to increased gene expression.
