Endocrine System
Anterior
Pituitary
• Human Growth Hormone
• Thyroid Stimulating
Hormone
• Follicle Stimulating
Hormone
• Luteinizing Hormone
• Prolactin
• Adrenocorticotrophic
Hormone
• Melanocyte Stimulating
Hormone
Anterior Pituitary
• Human Growth Hormone – growth of epiphyseal
plates
• Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
• Follicle Stimulating Hormone (testes and ovaries)
• Luteinizing Hormone (testosterone and estrogen)
• Prolactin ((milk secretion)
• Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone (adrenal gland)
• Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (melanocytes)
Corticotrophic Hormone
Human Growth Hormone
Posterior Pituitary
• Oxytocin (uterine
contractions)
• Antidiuretic Hormone
(kidney function)
Antidiuretic Hormone
Thyroid Gland
• T3 and T4 Hormones
(oxygen use, BMR,
cellular metabolism,
growth and
development)
• Calcitonin (uptake of
calcium and
phosphorus into
bone)
Parathyroid Gland
Parathyroid
Hormone
(removes
calcium from
osteocytes and
adds it to
blood)
Adrenal Glands
• Mineralcorticoids
(increases blood NA and
K levels)
• Glucocorticoids (protein
breakdown and adds
glucogenesis)
• Androgens (Growth)
• Epinephrine (Sympathetic
response)
Pancreas
• Insulin (glucose to
liver as glycogen)
• Glucagon (glucose
from liver to blood)
Ovaries and Testes
Pineal Gland
Thymus Gland
Words to Know
