What is the source of aldesterone?
adrenal coretex
What is the source of ADH?
posterior pituitary
What is the source of calcitonin?
C Cells in the thyroid
What is the source of parathomone?
parathyroid gland
What is the source of EPO?
kidney
What is the function of aldesterone?
Sodium reabsorption and K secretion

result: increased serum, blood volume, increased BP
What is the function of ADH
Secreted when blood plasma volume or BP is too low, or osmoregularity is too high
Causes water reabsorption
RESULT: more concentrated urine, more dilute blood
How do ADH and aldestorone work together to control blood pressure?
Aldestorone works to increases sodium reabsorption, which causes increased plasma ormoregularity.
Then ADH is secreted, which results in water reabsorption
What is the function of calcitonin
Secreted when Ca is too high in serum. Causes Ca to be removed by putting it in bone
2) reduced gut absorption
3) excretion in utine
What is the function of parathomone
opposite of calcitonin
What is the hypothalamus class and effect?
it makes releasing and inhibiting factors

they target the anterior pituitary and modify activity
