Alcohol can inhibit the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. ADH is produced in the hypothalamus and helps regulate the balance of water and electrolytes in the body by controlling water reabsorption in the kidneys.
The pituitary gland controls the secretion of growth hormone.
Inhibin is a hormone that specifically suppresses spermatogenesis without affecting testosterone secretion. It is produced by the Sertoli cells in the testes and acts to inhibit the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland, which is necessary for sperm production. This helps to regulate the balance of hormones involved in male reproductive function.
Acromegaly is the medical term for abnormal secretion of growth hormone after puberty. This can result in abnormal growth.
Aldosterone is the hormone responsible for promoting sodium retention and potassium secretion in the kidneys. It helps regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance in the body.
Sometimes, the pituitary gland keeps on secreting the triggering hormone. this causes post puberty hyper secretion.
Secretion of growth hormone (GH) in the pituitary is regulated by the neurosecretory nuclei of the hypothalamus.
"Trophic" describes any hormone that controls the secretion of another hormone
The pitutary gland is what controls the secretion of the thyroid hormone.
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion is primarily regulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus. GnRH stimulates the release of FSH from the anterior pituitary gland. Additionally, negative feedback from sex steroids such as estrogen and testosterone can also influence FSH secretion.
Changes in blood osmotic pressure would most affect the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) by the pituitary gland. ADH helps regulate the concentration of urine by increasing water reabsorption in the kidneys, and its secretion is influenced by blood osmotic pressure to maintain water balance in the body.
Endrocrine secretion
