Thyroxine (T4)
Triiodothyronine (T3)
PROTEIN
Targets: Most Cells
Hormonal Effects: Increase metabolism and growth
Regulatory Control: Stimulated by TSH from anterior lobe of the pituitary gland
THYROID GLAND
Behaves like a lipid--uses inracellular cells
Calcitonin (CT)
PROTEIN
Targets: Bone, Kidney
Hormonal Effects: Increase bone production; Decrease Ca+ concentration in body fluids
Regulatory Control: Stimulated by elevated blood Ca+ levels; actions opposed by PTH
THYROID GLAND
Antagonist--PTH
Bone Builder
Parathyroid hormone
(PTH)
PROTEIN
Targets: Bone Kidneys
Hormonal Effects: Decreases bone production; Increases Ca+ concentrations in body fluids
Regulatory Control: Stimulated by low blood Ca+ levels; PTH effects enhanced by calcitriol and opposed by calcitonin.
