Key Syllabus Coverage (Official IGNOU Curriculum)

Block 1: Hypothalamic and Pituitary Hormones

Detailed biochemical analysis of hypothalamic releasing hormones (e.g., GnRH, TRH) and pituitary gland hormones (e.g., ACTH, TSH, FSH/LH). Includes:

• Synthesis pathways of peptide and glycoprotein hormones.
• Regulation via negative feedback loops (e.g., cortisol-HPA axis).
• Structural differences between anterior and posterior pituitary hormones.

Block 2: Growth and Development Hormones

Focus on insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), growth hormone (GH), and thyroid hormones (T3/T4). Covers:

• Biochemical mechanisms of GH secretion and IGF-1 signaling.
• Role of thyroid hormones in metabolic regulation and development.
• Genetic and environmental factors influencing hormone-mediated growth.

Block 3: Metabolic and Stress Hormones

Explores catecholamines (adrenaline/noradrenaline), glucocorticoids (cortisol), and pancreatic hormones (insulin/glucagon). Key topics:

• Adrenergic receptor subtypes and second-messenger pathways.
• Metabolic effects of cortisol (gluconeogenesis, lipolysis).
• Insulin-glucose homeostasis and Type 2 diabetes biochemical links.

Block 4: Mechanism of Hormone Action

Detailed biochemical signaling pathways, including:

• G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and tyrosine kinase receptors.
• Steroid hormone nuclear receptor mechanisms.
• Post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation, ubiquitination).
