PIF or Dopamine
What hormone from the hypothalamus is a peptide that stimulates the secretion of growth hormones?
GHRH
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates the secretion of synthesis and secretion of thyroid hormones?
TSH
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates sperm maturation in Sertoli cells of testes and stimulates follicular development and estrogen synthesis in ovaries?
FSH
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates testosterone synthesis in Leydig cells of testes and stimulates ovulation, formation of corpus luteum, estrogen, and progesterone synthesis in ovaries?
LH
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates protein synthesis and overall growth?
Growth hormone
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates milk production and secretion in breast?
Prolactin
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates synthesis and secretion of adrenal cortical hormones such as cortisol, androgens, and aldosterone?
ACTH
What hormone from the anterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates the secretion of melanin synthesis?
MSH
What hormone from the posterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates milk ejection from breast and uterine contractions?
Oxytocin
What hormone from the posterior pituitary is a peptide that stimulates water reabsorption in principal cells of collecting ducts and constring of arterioles?
ADH
What hormone from the thyroid is an amine that stimulates skeletal growth, oxygen consumption, heat production, protein/fat/carbs utilization, and perinatal maturation of the CNS?
T3 and T4
What hormone from the thyroid is a peptide that stimulates the decrease in concentration of calcium in serum?
Calcitonin
What hormone is a peptide that stimulates the increase in concentration of calcium in serum?
PTH
What hormone from the adrenal cortex is a steroid that stimulates gluconeogenesis, inhibits inflammatory response, suppresses immune response, and enhances vascular responsiveness to catecholamines?
Cortisol (glucocorticoid)
What hormone from the adrenal cortex is a steroid that stimulates increases in renal sodium reabsorption, potassium secretion, and hydrogen secretion?
Aldosterone (mineralocorticoid)
What hormone is a steroid that stimulates spermatogenesis and stimulates male secondary sex characteristics?
Testosterone
What hormone is a steroid that stimulates growth and development of female reproductive system, follicular phase of menstrual cycle, development of breasts, prolactin secretion, and maintains pregnancy?
Estradiol
What hormone is a steroid that stimulates luteal phase of menstrual cycle and maintains pregnancy?
Progesterone
What hormone from the placenta is a peptide that stimulates estrogen and progesterone synthesis in corpus luteum of early pregnancy?
hCG
What hormone from the placenta is a peptide that has growth hormone and prolactin like actions during pregnancy?
hPL
What hormone from the pancreas is a peptide that decreases blood glucose concentration?
Insulin
What hormone from the pancreas is a peptide that increases blood glucose concentration?
Glucagon
What hormone from the kidney is a peptide that catalyzes conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I?
Renin
What hormone from the kidney is a steroid that increases intestinal absorption of calcium and is involved in bone mineralization?
