Recombinant Hormones
Hormone is a kind of biochemical substance that produced by multicellular glands, and then transported by the circulatory system to the target organ to coordinate its physiology and behavior. Hormones function a serious sort of communication between different organs and tissues. Hormones regulate a variety of physiological and behavioral activities, as well as digestion, metabolism, respiration, tissue function and so on. Hormones purposefully affect the target tissue by binding to specific receptor proteins and elicit a specified action in the cellular target. When a hormone binds to the receptor protein, it results in the activation of a signal transduction mechanism. This ultimately leads to cell type-specific genomic responses that cause the hormone to activate genes that regulate protein synthesis.
Hormones can be divided into two categories: water solubility and fat solubility. In first category, such as protein hormones and catecholamines, they are water soluble and thus readily transported through the circulatory system. The next category, such as steroid and thyroid hormones, are fat soluble. For distribution, they must bond to carrier plasma glycoproteins to form ligand-protein complexes.
BiologicsCorp(BIC) mainly manufactures two types hormones: parathyroid hormone (PTH) and exedin. The exedin is a hormone discovered from venom lizard, it plays a role in enhancing glucose-dependent insulin secretion, suppresses inappropriately elevated glucagon secretion and slows gastric emptying in vivo, and this will be useful to reduce weight. PTH enhances the concentration of blood calcium.
