Endocrine Glands
Anterior Pituitary
-
-
luteinizing hormone (LH)
Glycoprotein,
Stimulates androgen production by gonads,
-
-
-
Prolactin (PRL)
Peptide
Promotes milk production; Cytokline receptor, Second messenger
Adrenal Cortex
Aldosterone
Steroid,
Aldosterone promote Na+ retention, K+ excretion;
-
-
-
-
Thyroid
Tetraiodothyronine ( or T4), Triiodothyronine (T3)
Amine
Tetraiodothyronine & Triiodothyronine promote growth and development and stimulate basal rate of cell respiration (basal metabolic rate or BMR);
-
-
Pancreas
Insulin
polypeptide
Cellular glucose uptake, lipogenesis, and glycogenesis,
-
Glucagon
Polypeptide
Hydrolysis of stored glycogen and fat, polypeptide, cAMP.
-
Adrenal Medulla
Norepinephrine
Amine
Heart, bronchioles, and blood vessels: Hinder or halts adrenergic stimulation;
-
Epinephrine
Amine
Heart, bronchioles, and blood vessels: Causes adrenergic stimulation;
-
Pineal Gland
Melatonin
Amine
Affects secretion of gonadotrophic hormones from Hypothalamus and anterior pituitary,
