Your heart has receptors for this hormone, and oxytocin helps heart cells regenerate and heal from any stress induced damage.

It's a hormone.

It's a stress hormone.

The altered immune receptors weren't effective.

Here's how shape works in normal receptors.

Because our pheromones matched our olfactory receptors.

No, it's a hormone called oxytocin.

What I lack is growth hormone.

What I lack, is growth hormone.

It's these receptors that are actually very important.

It told us about hormone replacement therapy.

And the hormone IGF 1 promotes growth.

The daf 2 hormone receptor is very similar to the receptor for the hormone insulin and IGF 1.

Her blood had elevated levels of growth hormone.

Platelet acceleration, human growth hormone and cybernetic implants.

Female hormone imbalance is a major cause of infertility.

Love is nothing more than a temporary hormone imbalance.

Normally the testes should make testosterone, the male hormone.

Insulin is required for life, it's an essential hormone.

And the daf 2 gene encodes a hormone receptor.

Well, that's because you've got receptors in your skin, touch and pain receptors, going back into your brain and saying Don't worry, you're not being touched.

Physiologically, there also are differences on two key hormones testosterone, which is the dominance hormone, and cortisol, which is the stress hormone.

These are just like the receptors on the surfaces of your cells.

There is the hormone that tells plant bits to grow.

A plant bit might use up the hormone around it.

Very complex processes with very complex chemicals that fit into very complex receptors.

They are coupled to light receptors similar to the ones in your eyes.

Testosterone is another hormone that increases oil production in the skin.

And the adrenal glands make androgens, which are a masculinizing hormone.

If you change this hormone pathway in flies, they live longer.

So how can a hormone ultimately affect the rate of aging?

Surgical alterations, radical hormone therapy using average citizens as unwitting guinea pigs.

And so they lock into those receptors, and they jam recognition of the real thing.

Because, genetically, they knocked out the receptors for a chemical in the brain called dopamine.

To understand this side of stress, we need to talk about a hormone, oxytocin, and I know oxytocin has already gotten as much hype as a hormone can get.

It might just be a simple hormone or something that could do this.

If you have an empty stomach, your stomach produces a hormone called ghrelin.

The hypothalamus, the master controller of your hormones, releases something called corticotropin releasing hormone.

There was an urgent call from Mrs. Beatrice. She's concerned about her hormone therapy.

So, you'll have insulin to attach to the receptors, and so the glucose can be processed properly.

But because this individual lacks receptors to hear that testosterone, the body doesn't react to the testosterone.

So these little mice without endorphin receptors in their brains will naturally not call for their mothers.

But let's say another method would be, the virus convinces just based on some protein receptors on it, or protein receptors on the cells and obviously this has to be kind of a Trojan horse type of thing.

Sorry about that. I've just given you a shot of cortisol, your fight flight hormone.

In this situation, the receptors have difficulty binding to the insulin. and glucose does not enter the cell.
