Publisher Summary This chapter discusses posterior pituitary hormone. Two important hormones are secreted from the posterior pituitary in both males and females. These are vasopressin (VP), the antidiuretic hormone, and oxytocin (OT), which in females acts as the milk ejection factor. Both are non-apeptides, closely related in structure and apparently

Pituitary Resistance to Thyroid Hormones
Hormone Research, 1992Pituitary thyroid hormone resistance (PRTH) refers to a particular form of thyroid hormone refractoriness that is accompanied by peripheral hyperthyroidism, as only the TSH-secreting pituitary cells appear to be resistant to the effects of thyroid hormones. The presence of PRTH is suspected and diagnosed on the basis of the finding of high free thyroid

Human pituitary growth hormone
Experientia, 1964Aus Tierexperimenten mit Wachstumshormonen aus Rindern wird klar, dass das Hormon eine Anzahl anderer biologischer Funktionen ausubt als seine wachstumsfordernde Tatigkeit. Im Menschen hat sich das Wachstumshormon als starkstes anabolisches Agens der bisher untersuchten Arzneimittel oder Hormone erwiesen.

PITUITARY ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1950To the Editor:— An aspect of pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) therapy which seems to have escaped attention is the relationship of the pituitary adrenal axis to fat metabolism and to fatty infiltration of the liver. There is a considerable amount of evidence at hand to indicate that the pituitary adrenal axis is involved in fat metabolism ...

Endocrinology, 1931
As our knowledge of endocrine glands increases it becomes more and more evident that the number of active principles is very much greater than had formerly been supposed. The separation of two hormones from the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland (1) stimulated speculation along this line but we must not allow ourselves to jump at the conclusion that

The hypothalamus (Fig. 1) embodies a group of nuclei that form the floor and ventrolateral walls of the triangular-shaped third ventricle. A thin membrane called the lamina terminalis forms the anterior wall of this compartment and contains osmoreceptor cells in a structure known as the organum vasculosum.

Hypothalamic and Pituitary Hormones
2021Hypothalamus–pituitary–organ axis plays a cardinal role in the maintenance of homeostasis of human body. Hypothalamus and pituitary gland are connected by means of neurosecretory fibers and portal venous system. The flow of a substance called “hormone” from hypothalamus to the effector organ through anterior or posterior pituitary is regulated by ...

Effects of naloxone on insulin-induced release of pituitary hormones.
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1981To evaluate the role of endogenous opiates on the regulation of the pituitary hormonal stress response, we have studied in six normal subjects the insulin-induced secretion of PRL, GH, and ACTH with and without naloxone, a specific opiate antagonist ...

Effect of pituitary hormones on dentin production in maxillary incisors in the rat.
Scandinavian journal of dental research, 1978The effect of pituitary hormones on dentin production and longitudinal growth of the maxillary incisors in normal and hypophysectomized rats was investigated.
