|
ADH |
Maintain normal blood volume and maintain normal BP |
|
|
Oxytocin |
Stimulates contraction of uterus to initiate labor and responsible for contraction of mammary glands |
|
|
GH(growth hormone) |
Speeds up movement of amino acids out of blood into cells, accelerates fat breakdown, slows carb breakdown |
|
|
TSH(thyroid stimulating hormone) |
Stimulate growth of thyroid, secretion of t3 t4 |
|
|
ACTH(adrenocorticotropic hormone) |
Stimulates secretion of cortisol |
|
|
Prolactin |
Maintain milk production of mammary glands |
|
|
FSH(follicle stimulating hormone) |
Stimulates ovarian follicles, secretion of estrogen, stimulates sperm to grow and form. |
|
|
LH(luteinizing hormone) |
Acts with FSH to form ovum, causes ovulation, stimulates secretion of testosterone |
|
|
T3 T4 |
Most important regulators of metabolic rate, normal development. |
|
|
Calcitonin |
Keep calcium and phosphate in the bones, decreases reabsorption of calcium into the blood |
|
|
PTH |
Increase concentration of calcium into the blood(opposite of calcitonin) |
|
|
Epinephrine |
Increases HR vasoconstriction of skin and viscera vasodilation is skeletal muscles and bronchioles. Slows Peristalis, stimulates liver to convert glycogen to glucose. |
|
|
Mineralocorticoid-aldosterone |
Reabsorption of sodium and increased secretion of potassium in kidney tubules |
|
|
Glucocorticoids-cortisol |
Anti inflammatory effects. |
