. salivary glands, mouth salivary amylase hydrolyzes starch to maltose pancreas, small intestine pancreatic amylase hydrolyzes starch to maltose intestinal glands, small intestine maltase/sucrase/lactase gastric juice hydrolyzes: maltose to 2 glucose sucrose to glucose + fructose lactose to glucose + galactose gastric glands, stomach secretions of chief cells (pepsin) and parietal cells (HCl) gastric glands, stomach pepsin hydrolyzes specific peptide bonds pyloric glands, stomach gastrin released when food enters stomach, stimulates gastric glands to secrete more HCl and gastric juice, stimulates stomach muscle contractions to churn food intestinal glands, small intestine secretin released by duodenum in response to acidic chyme, stimulates pancreas to secrete pancreatic juice (bicarbonate neutralizes acid) pancreas, small intestine pancreatic juice cholecystokinin enterogastrone trypsin alkaline fluid with bicarbonate that helps maintain small intestinal pH by acid neutralization to promote enzyme function, includes proteases and enzymes that digest lipids and carbohydrates duodenum secreted in response to chyme to stimulate pancreatic enzyme and bile release duodenum secreted when chyme is very fatty to inhibit stomach peristalis so chyme is released more slowly to duodenum pancrease, small intestine hydrolyzes specific peptide bonds, converts chymotrypsinogen to active chymotrypsin pancreas, small intestine chymotrypsin hydrolyzes specific peptide bonds pancreas, small intestine carboxypeptidase hydrolyzes terminal peptide bonds at carboxyl end intestinal glands, small intestine amino peptidase hydrolyzes terminal peptide bond at amino end intestinal glands, small intestine dipeptidases hydrolyzes pairs of amino acids intestinal glands, small intestine enterokinase convert trypsinogen to trypsin liver, small intestine (gall bladder) bile emulsifies fat pancreas, small intestine lipase hydrolyzes lipids anterior pituitary growth hormone stimulates bone, cartilage and muscle growth anterior pituitary prolactin adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) luteinizing hormone (LH) follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) oxytocin aldosterone renin-angiotensin human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) erythropoietin vasopressin (ADH) stimulates milk production and secretion anterior pituitary stimulates adrenal cortex to synthesize and secrete glucocorticoids anterior pituitary stimulates thyroid to produce thyroid hormones anterior pituitary stimulates ovulation in females; testosterone synthesis in males anterior pituitary stimulates follicle maturation in females and estrogen secretion in ovaries, and assists in egg production by meiosis; spermatogenesis in males hypothalamus (posterior pituitary) stimulates uterine contractions during labor and milk secretion during lactation adrenal cortex stimulates sodium reabsorption in collecting duct and potassium secretion (causes more water absorption and higher blood volume/pressure) kidneys produces renin in response to low blood volume to convert and activate angiotensin angiotensin stimulates adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone (higher blood volume) and ADH from posterior pituitary blastocyst, developing placenta preserves corpus luteum for first trimester of pregnancy to allow estrogen/progesterone secretion to be maintained, maintains endometrial lining of uterus kidney in response to decrease renal O2 levels, stimulates bone marrow to produce red blood cells hypothalamus (posterior pituitary) stimulates water reabsorption in kidneys decrease urine volume thryoid thyroid hormone calcitonin parathyroid hormone glucocorticoids mineralcorticoids epinephrine/norepinephrin glucagon insulin stimulates metabolic activity, acts on reproductive, nervous, muscular, and skeletal systems to promote normal function, need iodine (thyroxine/triiodothyronine) thyroid decreases the blood calcium level in response to high blood calcium by influence on osteoblasts parathyroid increases blood calcium level in response to low calcium in blood by activation of osteoclasts adrenal cortex increases blood glucose level (conversion of fats and proteins) and decreases protein synthesis, high levels inhibit inflammatory response (cortisol and cortisone), steroid adrenal cortex increases sodium retention (and thus water) retention in the kidney and potassium excretion, steroid (aldosterone) adrenal medulla increases blood glucose level and heart rate, response to stress, cause fight-or-flight pancreas (alpha islet) stimulates converstion of glycogen to glucose in the liver; increases blood glucose pancreas (beta islet cells) lowers blood glucose and increases storage of glycogen pancreas somatostatin supresses secretion of glucagon and insulin testis testosterone estrogen maintains male secondary sexual characteristics (androgen) and sperm production, steroid ovary/placenta maintains female secondary sexual characteristics, follicle development, pregnancy ovary/progesterone progesterone promotes growth/maintenance of endometrium, steroid pineal melatonin unclear in humans (possibly influence on patterned behaviors like sleep, fertility, and aging) heart atrial natriuretic hormone involved in osmoregulation, lower blood pressure thymus thymosin stimulates T lymphocyte development anterior pituitary endorphins gonadocorticoids relaxin act on nervous system to reduce the perception of pain adrenal cotex secreted in small amounts (androgens and estrogens), steroids placenta used to release ligaments attaching pubic bones to allow for more space during pregnancy
