|
||||
| Growth hormone (GH) somatotropin | Secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary glad (adenohypophysis): stimulates growth of bones and soft tissue.
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Adrenaline (Epinephrine) | Secreted by the adrenal medulla; increases heart rate and blood pressure
🗑

||||
| Cortisol | Secreted by the adrenal cortex; increases blood sugar. It is secreted in times of stress and has an anti-inflammatory effect.
🗑
|
||||
| Epinephrine (adrenaline) | Secreted by the adrenal medulla; increase heart rate and blood pressure and dilates airways (sympathomimetic) It's part of the body's "fight or flight" reaction

🗑
|
||||
| Parathyroid gland | Four small glands on the posterior of thyroid gland. Some patients may have 3 or 5 parathyroid glands
🗑
|
||||
| Insulin | Secreted by beta islet cells of the pancreas. Insulin lowers blood sugar to transport and conversion of glucose to glycogen (starch)
🗑
|
||||
| Luteinizing hormone (LH) | secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary glad (adenohypophysis) stimulates ovulation in females and testosterone secretion in males
🗑
|
||||
| Ovaries | Located in the lower abdomen of a female; responsible for egg production and estrogen and progesterone secretion
🗑
|
||||
| Oxytocin (OT) | Secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary glad (neurohpophysis) stimulates contraction of the uterus during labor and childbirth
🗑
|
||||
| Pancreas | Located behind the stomach. Islet cells secrete hormones from the pancreas. The pancreas also contains cells that are exocrine in function. They secrete enzymes, via duct into the small intestine to aid digestion
