response to steroid hormone
Definition
Target type: biologicalprocess
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a steroid hormone stimulus. [GOC:go_curators]
Steroid hormones are lipid-soluble molecules that bind to intracellular receptors, triggering a cascade of events that ultimately alter gene expression and cellular function. The process begins when a steroid hormone diffuses across the plasma membrane and enters the cytoplasm of a target cell. Once inside, it binds to a specific receptor protein, forming a hormone-receptor complex. This complex translocates to the nucleus, where it interacts with DNA and regulates gene transcription. The binding of the complex to specific DNA sequences known as hormone response elements (HREs) can either activate or repress gene expression, depending on the specific hormone and target gene. The resulting changes in gene expression lead to a variety of cellular responses, including changes in metabolism, growth, differentiation, and development. The response to steroid hormones is tightly regulated by a complex network of feedback mechanisms. For example, the concentration of the hormone itself can influence its own production and degradation, ensuring that the cellular response is appropriate to the stimulus. In addition, other signaling pathways can modulate the activity of steroid hormone receptors, allowing for fine-tuning of the cellular response. Overall, the response to steroid hormones is a highly complex and tightly regulated process that is essential for a wide range of biological functions.'
