Growth H. (GH)
Prolactin (Lactogenic H)
Pancreatic Islets
Insulin
Glucagon
Melatonin
Inhibits tropic hormones that affect the ovaries; may be involved in the body's internal clock
Atrial Natruiretic Hormone (ANH)
regulates fluid and electrolyte homeostasis
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine
prolong and intensify the sympathetic nervous response during stress
Glucagon
stimulates liver glycogenolysis causing an increase in blood glucose concentration
Insulin
promotes glucose entry into all cells causing a decrease in blood glucose concentration
Estrogens
promotes development and maintance of female sexual characteristics
Progesterone
promotes conditions required for pregnancy
Testosterone
promotes development and maintenance of male sexual characteristics
Thymosin
promotes development of immune system cells
Chorionic gonadotropin
Estrogens
Progestrone
promote conditions required during early pregnancy
Sex hormones: androgens
stimu. sexual drive in female but have negligible effects in the male
Zona: reticlaris
Sex hormones
(androgens)
stimul. sexual drive in female but have negligigle effect in the male
zona: reticlaris
Glucocorticoids: cortisol
(hydrocortisone)
stim. gluconeogenesis causing an increase in blood glucose concentration; antiinflammatory and antiiimmunity antiallergy effects
zona: fasciculata
Mineralocorticoids
(aldosterone)
regulate electrolyte and fluid homeostasis
zona: glomerulusa
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
stim. teh breakdown of bone; causes increase in blood calcium concentration
Calcitonin
Inhibits the breakdown of bone; causes a decrease in blood calcium concentration
Thyroxine (T4)
Triiodothyronine (T3)
stim. the energy metabolism of all cells
Inhibiting hormones
(several)
inhibit the anterior pituitary's secretion of hormones
Releasing hormones
(several)
stim. the anterior pituitary to release hormones
Oxytocin
stim. uterine contractions at the end of pregnancy; stim. teh release of milk into the breast ducts
Antiduiretic hormone (ADH)
stim. retention of water by the kidneys
Prolactin
(lactogenic hormone)
stim. breast devlopment during pregnancy and milk secretion after pregnancy
Growth hormone (GH)
stim. growth in all organs; mobilizes food molecules, causing an increase in blood glucose concentration
Melanocyte- stimulating
hormone (MSH)
stim. synthesis and dispersion of melanin pigment in the skin
Luteinizing hormone
(LH)
TROPIC HORMONE
male- stim. intersital cels of the testes to secrete testosterone
female- stim. matuation of ovarian follicle and ovum; stim. secretion of estrogens; triggers ovulation; stim. development of corpus luteum (luteinization)
Follicle- stimulating
hormone (FSH)
TROPIC HORMONE
female- stim. development of ovarian ollicles and secretion estrogen
male- stim. semininferous tubules of testes to grow and produce sperm
Adrenocorticotropic
hormone (ACTH)
TROPIC HORMONE
stim. secretion of adrenal cortex hormones
Thyroid- stimulating
hormone (TSH)
TROPIC HORMONE
stim. secretion of thyroid hormones
