Transcript
Anterior pituitary hormones, target organs, and physiologic effects. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulates the thyroid gland to produce and release
thyroid hormones that regulate growth, differentiation, and energy balance. Luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulate
gonadal production of sex steroids, which mediate reproductive function and behavior. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulates the adrenal glands
to produce steroid hormones, which regulate water and sodium balance, inflammation, and metabolism. Prolactin (Prl) stimulates breast development and
milk production. Growth hormone (GH) exerts direct effects on tissue growth and differentiation and indirect effects through the stimulation of insulin-like
growth factor 1 production, which mediates some of the growth and differentiation effects of GH.
