ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
|Hormone |Produced by |Target |Action |
|HGH [growth hormone, |anterior pituitary | |stimulates bone & muscle growth,|
|somatotropin] | | |protein anabolism, fat |
| | | |catabolism, glycogenolysis, |
| | | |liver synthesis of somatomedins |
|TSH [thyroid stimulating |anterior pituitary | |stimulates synthesis & secretion|
|hormone, thyrotropin] | | |by the thyroid |
|ACTH [adrenocorticotropic |anterior pituitary | |stimulates production & |
|hormone, adrenocorticotropin] | | |secretion by adrenal cortex |
|FSH [follicle stimulating |anterior pituitary | |F - monthly dev. of ovum, |
|hormone] | | |stimulates estrogen prod. |
| | | |M - sperm production |
|LH [leutinizing hormone |anterior pituitary | |F - ovulation and progesterone |
| | | |secretion |
| | | |M - testosterone secretion |
|PRL [prolactin] |anterior pituitary | |F - initiates and maintains milk|
| | | |secretion |
| | | |M - enhances LH influence over |
| | | |testosterone prod. |
|MSH [melanocyte stimulating |anterior pituitary | | |
|hormone] | | | |
|OT [oxytocin] |hypothalamus to posterior pit. | |stimulates uterine contractions |
| |to store | |and milk ejection |
|ADH [antidiuretic hormone] |hypothalamus to posterior pit. | |limits water excretion by kidney|
| |to store | | |
|Vasopressin |posterior pituitary | | |
|Thyroid hormones [T3, T4] |thyroid follicular cells | |regulate oxygen use, increase |
| | | |basal metabolism, growth |
|CT [calcitonin] |thyroid parafollicular cells | |inhibits osteoclasts, promotes |
| | | |Ca uptake into bones, lowers Ca |
| | | |and P levels in blood |
|PTH [parathyroid hormone] |parathyroid | |stimulates Ca and P release from|
| | | |bone, increases vit. D |
| | | |formation, promotes uptake of Ca|
| | | |from digestive tract, inhibits |
| | | |excretion of Ca and Mg |
|Mineralcorticoids |adrenal cortex zona glomerulosa | |affects water and electrolyte |
|[aldosterone]*Renin-Angiotensin | | |balance by conserving Na and |
|pathway | | |water, eliminating K. Increases|
| | | |blood volume. |
|Glucocorticoids [cortisol] |adrenal cortex zona fasiculata | |promotes metabolism by ensuring |
| | | |available energy - |
| | | |gluconeogenesis. Involved in |
| | | |resistance to stress. |
| | | |Anti-inflammatory |
|Gonadocorticoids [sex hormones, |adrenal cortex zona reticularis | |secondary sexual characteristics|
|androgens, estrogens] | | | |
|Epinephrine, norepinephrine |Adrenal Medulla | |ANS, fight or flight |
|Glucagon |Pancreas - alpha cells | |increase blood glucose and |
| | | |glycogenolysis |
|Insulin |Pancreas - beta cells | |lower blood glucose, |
| | | |glycogenesis |
|GHIH |Hypothalamus | |inhibits secretion of hGH, |
| | | |glucagons and insulin |
|Pancreatic Peptide |Pancreas | |inhibits secretion of pancreatic|
| | | |digestive enzymes |
|Estrogens |ovaries | |develop and maintain F char. |
|Progesterone |Ovaries/testes | |dev. and maintain F char., Sperm|
| | | |maturation, inhibit FSH |
|Relaxin |Ovaries/placenta | |relaxes pubic symphysis, dilates|
| | | |cervix |
|Inhibin |Ovaries/testes | |inhibits FSH |
| | | | |
|Testosterone |Testes/adrenal | |M char., sperm maturation, |
| | | |libido |
|Melatonin |Pineal | | Inhibits FSH/LH systems, |
| | | |produced only in dark, circadian|
| | | |rhythms |
|Thymosin [THF, TF, thymopoietin]|Thymus | |production and maturation of |
| | | |T-lymphocytes |
|Gastrin |Stomach | |stimulates release of HCl and |
| | | |pepsinogen |
|Cholecystokinin [CCK] |Small intestine | |inhibits gastric juice |
| | | |production, causes ejection of |
| | | |bile, induces satiety |
|hCH [Human chorionic |Placenta | |stimulates progesterone |
|gonadotropin] | | |production by ovary and placenta|
| | | |to maintain pregnancy |
|Renal erythropoietic factor |Kidney | |generates erythropoietin that |
| | | |stimulates rbc production |
|ANP [ANF or atrial natriuretic |Heart | |affects [inhibits] |
|protein] | | |renin-angiotensin pathway, |
| | | |blocking aldosterone, decreases |
| | | |blood pressure and decreases Na |
| | | |resorption into blood. |
