Q

PTH

Parathyroid Hormone

A 
Parathyroid 
bone tissue/kidneys (target), increases calcium removal from storage in bone and produces the the active form of vitamin D (calcitrol) in the kidneys, increasing absorption of calcium via intestines and INCREASING BLOOD Ca++ LEVELS
increases osteoclasts
Target- bone/kidneys
Effect- increase blood calcium
17
Q

Thymosin

A

Thymus
(educates T cells)
Target tissue- immune system
Effect- promotes formation & maturation of T cells

Large in children, begins to atrophy throughout life

Target - immune system
Effect - T cell formation/maturation

18
Q

Epinepherine &

Norepinephrine

A

Adrenals - medula

Target: sympathetic effectors

Effect: enhance and prolong sympathetic effect

19
Q

Effect : sexual function

22
Q

Insulin

A

Pancreas
From beta cells
Target tissues: various cells/tissues throughout the body, general
