Figure 7-7, steps 1–2a
Most hydrophobic steroids are bound to plasma protein carriers. Only unbound hormones can diffuse into the target cell.
Some steroid hormones also bind to mem-brane receptors that use second messenger systems to create rapid cellular responses.
Steroid hormone receptors are typically in the cytoplasm or nucleus.

Some steroid hormones also bind to mem-brane receptors that use second messenger systems to create rapid cellular responses.
Steroid hormone receptors are typically in the cytoplasm or nucleus.
The receptor-hormone complex binds to DNA and activates or represses one or more genes.
Activated genes create new mRNA that moves into the cytoplasm.
