|
Epinephrine/Adrenalin and Norepinephrine function |
the fastest response to stress. squirted into the blood increasing heat beat, bp, blood flow to muscles, air into lungs, etc. decreases urine formation and digestion. |
|
Insulin function |
decreases blood sugar levels by moving glucose from blood to cells. |
|
Glucagon function |
increases blood sugar levels by moving glucose from cells to blood. |
|
Somatostatin function |
inhibits the secretion of insulin and glucagon. |
|
Estrogen function |
stimulates growth and maturation of genitalia and breasts at puberty. maintain adult size function of reproductive organs. prepares for fertilization. promotes oogenesis(egg making) and ovulation. during pregnancy- uterine, external genitalia, and mammary growth. stimulates long bone length, feminizing of pelvis and brain. promotes skim hydration, female adipose pattern of deposit, and appearance of axillary and pubic hair. |
|
Testosterone function |
masculizing hormone that deepens voice, increases body hair, sebum production, masculature and bone density. |
|
Progesterone function |
with estrogen stimulates growth of breasts and regulates uterine cycle. during pregnancy, with estrogen cause mammary glands to mature. |
|
Thymosin function |
regulates the development and activation of T lymphocytes. |
|
Human Gonadotrophins(HGC's), estrogens, and progesterones function |
maintains the corpus luteum(mature follicle after egg release) during pregnancy. |
|
Melatonin function |
regulates the onset of puberty and female cycle. regulates internal clock, sleep cycle, and mood due to lighting exposure. |
|
Atrial Natriuretic Hormone(ANH) function |
stimulates the kidney to secrete sodium and water into the urine. |
|
Gastrin function |
stimulates glands to release HCl in response to food in stomach. |
|
Intestinal Gastrin function |
inhibits HCl secretion and GI tract mobility/movement. |
|
Secretin function |
release alkaline buffer(pancreas), bile(liver), halt stomach secretions. |
|
Cholecystokinin(CCK) function |
stimulates release of digestive juices(pancreas) and bile(gallbladder). |
|
Erythropoietin function |
stimulates the production of RBC's in bone marrow. |
