Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

Thyroid Gland--->Stimulates release of Thyroid hormone

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Adrenocorticotrophic (ACTH)

Adrenal cortex----->release stress hormones

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Follicle stimulating (FSH)
Luteinizing (LH)

Gonads- ovaries and testes

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Growth Hormone (GH)

Body cells----->growth

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH)

Skin in fetus----->Darkens skin

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Proclactic

Mammary Glands----->Milk production

Gland= Adenohypophysis

Antidiurectic (ADH)-2

Kidneys--->reabsorb water back to blood---> increases blood volume
arterioles---->Vasoconstricts arterioles ---> increases blood pressure

Gland= Neuropophysis

Oxytocin (2)

mammary glands ----> milk secretion
uterus----> uterus contraction during labor (+feedback)

Gland= Neuropophysis

Thyroid Hormone (3)

Body cells----> increase metabolism (the more, the faster the metabolism)
Osteoclasts-----> slows down activity in order to lower blood calcium
Kidney ----> Inhibit reabsorption Ca+ from kidneys so we excrete it

Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

Bone -----> activates osteoblasts to increase Ca+ levels
Kidneys ---> activate kidney absorption of Ca+
Small intestine ---> aid in absorption of Ca+ in diet

Melatonin

Body cells----> regulate day/night cycles; seasonally fluctuates

Pineal gland

Cortisol

body cells----> increase glucose levels; breaks down fat to make glucose; helps body deal with long term stress

Gland= Adrenal Cortex

Aldosterone

Kidneys----> reabsorb sodium and water; increase blood volume and pressure

*Adrenal Cortex

Insulin

(B cells)
liver&body cells----> signals most body cells to take up glucose from blood(decreases blood sugar)
*Pancreas

Glucogen

liver- ---> release glucose into blood stream (increases blood sugar)

*pancreas

G cells

Stomach---> secrete gastrin (aids in digestion)

Estrogen

Endometrium----> mucosal lining repairs self
Body cells ---> maintaining secondary sex characteristics

*Ovaries

Progesterone

uterus----> prepares it for pregnancy

Testosterone

Testicles----> promotes formation of sperm
Body cells ---> maintains secondary sex characteristics

*Testes

Thymic

T cells----> stimulate development and maturation of T cells

*Thymus

Gastrin

Stomach ----> make hydrochloric acid/promote digestion

*GI tract

Cholectokinin CTK

Gallbladder----> to release bile

Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)

*placenta

Keratinocytes--> calcitrol

small intestine----> calcium absorption

*Skin

Renin

Adrenal cortex----> aldosterone which targets kidney to uptake sodium; increases blood pressure and volume

*Kidneys

Erythropoetin

Bone Marrow----> produce RBC

* Liver
