Endocrine Organ, Target - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Produces milk in mammary glands during/after pregnancy.
    - - Plays a role in sensitivity of intersitial cells.
  - - - Stimulates thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion.
  - - - Development of ovarian follicules in women.
    - - Development of sperms in men.
  - - - Acts as a melanocyte in epidermis to produce melanin
  - - - Acts on Adrenal Cortex to create corticosteroids
  - - - Releases IGF from liver to body tissues. It contributes to increased growth and metabolism in effectors (almost every cell in the body).
  - - - Production of androgen synthesis in testes
    - - Stimulates ovulation and estrogen/ progesterone synthesis in corpus luteum of ovary.
- - - - Balances electrolytes in the body.
  - - - Elevates blood glucose during long term stress and tells the body to use fats and protein as energy.
  - - - Promotes production of collagen
    - - Promotes production of collagen
- - - - Reabsorbs water from tubular fluid in kidney and vasoconstriction in arterioles. (higher blood pressure)
  - - - Smooth muscle contraction in the uteral line and milk production from mammary glands.
    - - Smooth muscle contraction in male reproductive lining
- - - - Works with sympathetic system to stimulate fight or flight reponse.
  - - - Works with sympathetic system to stimulate fight or flight reponse
- - - - PTH stimulates osteoclast to resorb bone and release calcium ions into the blood. PTH stimulates calcitriol synthesis for inactive form for Vitamin D. PTH prevents loss of calcium ions during the formation of urine in kidneys.
