Thyroid-stimulating Hormone | Stimulates secretion of thyroid hormones |
Adrenocorticotropic Hormone | Stimulates secretion of adrenal cortex hormones |
Follicle-stimulating Hormone | Females:stimulates development of ovarian follicles and secretion of estrogens, Males: stimulates seminiferous tubules of testes to grow and produce sperm |
Luteinizing Hormone | Female: Stimulates secretion of estrogen, Male: stimulates secretion of testosterone |
Growth Hormone | Stimulates growth in all organs, increases blood glucose concentration |
Polactin | Stimulates breast development durning pregnancy and mild secretion after pregnancy |
Antidiuretic Hormone | Stimulates retention of water by the kidney's |
Oxytocin | Stimulates uterine contractions at the end of pregnancy; stimulates the release of milk into the breast ducts |
Throxine and Triiodothyronine | Stimulate energy metabolism of all cells |
Calcitonin | Inhibits the breakdown of bone; causes decrease in blood calcium concentration |
Parathyroid Hormone | Stimulates the breakdown of bone; causes an increase in blood calcium concentration |
T 3 | Triiodothyronine |
T 4 | Thyroxine |
Hypercalcemia | Too much calcium in the blood |
Hyperthyroidism | Oversecretion of thyroid hormones dramatically increasing metabolic rate |
Hypothyroidsim | Undersecretion of thyroid hormones |
Glueconeogenesis | A process that converts amino acids or fatty acids to glucose and performed mainly by the liver cells |
Normal Blood Glucose | 70 to 100 mg per every 100 mL of blood |
Pineal Gland | produces melatonin |
