Growth hormone
adrenocorticotropic hormone
luteinizing hormone
follicle stimulating hormone
prolactin and thyroid stimulating hormone

30
Q

What hormones does the Neurohypophysis release?

Gigantism in children and acromegaly in adults

33
Q

What is underproduction of growth hormone

A

Dwarfism

34
Q

What does adrenocorticotropic hormone do

A

Stimulates the Zona fasciculata and causes release of glucocorticoids

Q

What is an overproduction and under production of adrenocorticotropic hormone

A

Cushing’s syndrome (over) And Addison’s disease (under)

36
Q

What does Leutinizing hormone do

A

Stimulates ovulation and corpus luteum formation in females stimulates testosterone in males

37
Q

What hormone is found in the ovaries and testes

A

LH

38
Q

What does follicle stimulating hormone do

A

Stimulates follicle maturation in females and stimulates spermatogenesis formation in males

39
Q

What organs does follicle stimulating hormone target

A

Ovaries and testes

40
Q

What does prolactin do

A

Targets mammary glands and stimulates milk production

41
Q

What does elevated levels of prolactin do

A

Decrease estrogen and testosterone levels

42
Q

What does thyroid stimulating hormone do

A

Stimulates thyroid hormone production T3 and T4

43
Q

What is overproduction and under production of thyroid stimulating hormone

A

Overproduction hyperthyroidism underproduction hypothyroidism

44
Q

What does oxytocin do

A

Targets the uterus causing uterine contractions causes milk ejection

45
Q

What does antidiuretic hormone do

A

Targets the kidney tubules Causes less water to be released

46
Q

What is under production of antidiuretic hormone

A

Diabetes insipidus

47
Q

What produces T3 and T4

A

Follicular cells and Calloid 

48
Q

What is this and what is produced here

A

Parafollicular cells and calcitonin is produced 

49
Q

What is this what is produced here

Auto immune disease, enlarged thyroid gland

52
Q

What is the antagonist to parathyroid hormone

A

Calcitonin

53
Q

What does parathyroid hormone do

A

Increases calcium levels in blood and stimulates osteoclast activity

54
Q

What does the Zona glomerulosa produce

A

Mineralocorticoids like aldosterone

55
Q

What does the Zona fasciculata produce

A

Glucocorticoids like cortisol

56
Q

What does the Zona reticularis produce

A

Gonadocorticoids

57
Q

What do each of these layers control

A

Glomerulosa controls electrolyte levels in blood
Fasciculata promotes gluconeogenesis
Reticularis converts Ganado corticoids into testosterone and estrogen
