Q

TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone)

A
  • from the anterior pituitary
  • stimulates thyroid gland to release thyroxin
17
Q

Prolactin

A
  • from the anterior pituitary
  • stimulates milk production in mammary glands
18
Q

ICSH (interstistial cell stimulating hormone)

A
  • from the anterior pituitary
  • same as lh; causes the release of sex hormones
19
Q

hGH (human growth hormone)

A
  • from the anterior pituitary gland
  • stimulates liver to release growth factors to cause growth of skeletal muscles and bones
20
Q

Oxytocin

A
  • from the posterioir pituitary gland
  • stimulates the contraction of smooth muscles in uterus and mammary glands
21
Q

ADH (antidiuretic hormone)

A
  • from the posterioir pituitary gland
  • causes kidney tubules to becomes permeable to water, thereby reducing urine output
22
Q

Thyroxin

A
  • from the thyroid gland
  • increases body’s metabolism
23
Q

Calcitonin

A
  • from the thyroid gland
  • lowers blood calcium by depositing in into bones and urine
24
Q

Parathyroid hormone

A
  • from the parathyroid gland
  • increases blood calcium by removing it from the bones, increasing absorption from intestines and kidney tubules
25
Q

Insulin (beta cells)

A
  • from the pancreas (islets of langerhans)
  • reduces blood glucose by converting it into glycogen in liver and making body cells permeable to glucose
26
Q

Glycogen (alpha cells)

A
  • from the pancreas (islets of langerhans)
  • increase blood glucose by converting glycogen into glucose
27
Q

Epinephrine (adrenaline)

A
  • from the adrenal medulla
  • fight or flight response
28
Q

Norepinephrine (noradrenaline)

A
  • from the adrenal medulla
  • fight or flight response
29
Q

Cortisol (glucocorticoid)

A
  • from the adrenal cortex
  • long term stress response. raises blood glucose by breaking down fat cells and muscle proteins
30
Q

Melatonin

A
  • from the pineal gland
  • circadian rhythms- sleep/wake cycle
31
Q

Estrogen

A
  • from the ovaries
  • female sex hormone
31
Q

Testosterone

A
  • from the testes
  • male sex hormone
32
Q

Progesterone

A
  • from the ovaries
  • female sex hormone
33
Q

Aldosterone (mineralocorticoid)

A
  • from the adrenal cortex
  • inclreases blood pressure. causes reabsorption of sodium in kidneyt tubules and increases water reabsorption
