| Question | Answer |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the Pineal Gland | Secrets Melatonin (amino acid derived); targets the brain and other tissues, and acts on the circadian rhythms, immune function and antioxidants |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the hypothalamus (NEURONS) | Trophic hormones (peptide), targets the anterior pituitary, acts on the release or inhibit the pituitary hormones |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the posterior pituitary (NEURONS) | [secrets oxytocin (peptide), targets the breast and uterus, acts on the mil ejection, labor and delivery and behavior]; [secretes vasopressin, ADH (peptide), targets the kidney and actos on water reabsorption] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by anterior pituitary (GLAND) | [Prolactin, PRL (Peptide) targets the breast an affects the milk production] [growth hormone or somatotropin, GH (peptide), targets the liver and affects the growth factor secretion and also targets many tissues for their growth and metabolism] [adrenocorticotropin, ACTH (peptide), targets the adrenal cortex and affects the cortisol release] [Thyrotropin stimulating hormone, TSH (peptide), targes the thyroid gland and its effect is on the thyroid hormone synthesis] [follicle stimulating hormone, FSH (peptide), targets the gonads and its effect are on the egg or sperm production and the sex hormone production] [Luteinizing hormone, LH (peptide), targets the gonads, and acts on the sex hormone production] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by parathyroid gland | Secretes parathyroid hormone (peptide), targets the bone and kidney and its effects are to regulate the plasma calcium and phosphate levels |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the thymus gland | secretes thymosin and thymopoletin (peptide), targets the lymphocytes and acts on the lymphocyte development |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by heart (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | secretes the atrial natriuretic peptide (peptide), targets the kidneys and acts on the increase of Na+ excretion |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by liver (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | [secretes angiotensinogen (peptide), targets the adrenal cortes and blood vessels, acts on the aldosterone secretion and in the increase of BP] [secretes IGF, insulin-like growth factor (peptide), targets many tissues and acts on their growth ] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the stomach and small intestine (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | secrets gastrins, cholecystokinin (peptides), targets the Gi tract and pancreas and actos on as siting the digestion and absorption of nutrients |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the pancreas (GLAND) | secretes insulin, glycogen, somatostatin, pancreatic polypetide (peptide), targets many tissues and acts on the metabolism of glucose and other nutrients |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the adrenal cortex (GLAND) | [secretes aldosterone (steroid), targets the kidney and scots on the Na+ and K+ homeostasis] [secretes cortisol (steroid), targets many tissues and acts on stress response] [secretes androgens (steroid), targets many tissues, and actos on sex drive on females] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by adrenal medulla (NEURONS) | secretes epinephrine, norepinephrine (amino-acid derived), targets many tissues and its effects are on the fight or flight response |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by kidney (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | [erythropoletin (peptide), targets the bone marrow and its main affects are on the red blood cell production] [1, 25-Dyhydroxi-Vitamin D2, calciferol (steroid), targets the intestine and its main effect are in the increase of Ca++ absorption] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the skin (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | Secretes Vitamin D2 (steroid), targets the intermediate for of hormone, acts as a precursor of 1, 25-dihydroxy-Vitamin D2 |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by the testes (GLAND) | [secretes androgens (steroid), targets many tissues, and its effect are on the sperm production and secondary sex characteristics] [secretes inhibit which targets the anterior pituitary and inhibits FSH secretion] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by ovaries (GLAND) | [secretes strogen and progesterone (steroid) which targets many tissues and its main effect are on the egg production and secondary sex characteristics] [secretes inhibit (peptide) which targets the anterior pituitary and acts on the inhibition of FSH secretion] [secretes relaxin in pregnancy (peptide) and targets the uterine muscles and relaxes muscles] |
| Hormone(s) secreted, target and main effect by adipose tissue (ENDOCRINE CELLS) | secretes leptin, ediponectin, resisting which targets the hypothalamus and other tissues and its effects are driven by the food intake, metabolism and reproduction |
