Organs with Endocrine Cells
Hypothalamus
CRH
increases secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone
GnRH
increases secretion of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone
GHRH
increases secretion of growth hormone
PRH
increases secretion of prolaction
TRH
increases secretion of thyroid stimulating hormone
GHIH
decreases secretion of growth hormone
PIH
decreases secretion of prolactin
Kidney
Calcitrol
stimulates the intestinal cells to increase their uptake of both calcium and phosphate, increasing calcium levels in body fluids
Renin
helps form angiotensin II that stimulates specific cells of the adrenal cortex to produce and secrete aldosterone
EPO
increase blood's ability to transport oxygen
Pancreas
Glucagon
increases blood glucose levels, glycogen breakdown in liver cells, lipid breakdown in adipose cells
Insulin
decreases glucose levels in body fluids, glucose transport into target cells; promotes glycogen and lipid formation and storage
Somatostatin
slows release of insulin and glucagon to slow rate of nutrient absorption during digestion
Pancreatic Polypeptide
suppresses somatostatin secretion from delta cells
Thymus
Thymopoietin
stimulate and promote the differentiation, growth, and maturation of T-lymphocytes
Thymosins
stimulate and promote the differentiation, growth, and maturation of T-lymphocytes
GI tract
hormones that regulate digestive activities, stimulate liver, gallbladder and pancreas to release secretions needed for digestionr
Testes
Androgens
stimulates male reproductive organ development, production of sperm
Inhibin
inhibits secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone
Ovaries
Estrogen
stimulates development of female reproductive organs, follicle maturation; regulates menstrual cycle; stimulates growth of mammary glands
Progesterone
regulates menstrual cycle; stimulates growth of uterine lining; stimulates growth of mammary glands
Inhibin
inhibits secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone
