Hormone Source Target Physiological Effect
Follicle-stimulating
hormone (FSH)		 Anterior pituitary Ovary and Testes Growth of ovarian follicles or
seminiferous tubules
Luteinizing hormone
(LH)		 Anterior pituitary Ovary and Testes Production of estrogen and progesterone
or testosterone
Prolactin (LTH) Anterior pituitary Ovary and Mammary Stimulate milk production in breast
maintain secretion of estrogen and progesterone by ovary
Thyroid stimulating
hormone (TSH)		 Anterior pituitary Thyroid Stimulates secretion of thyroid hormones
Adrenocorticotropic
hormone (ACTH)		 Anterior pituitary Adrenal cortex Stimulates secretion of adrenal cortex hormones
Growth hormone (GH, hGH) Anterior pituitary General Stimulates growth, has substantial rejuvenating properties.  L-Arginine is GH/hGH releaser
Melanocyte-stimulating
hormone (MSH)		 Anterior pituitary Melanocytes Stimulates dispersal of pigment in chromatophores
Oxytocin Hypothalamus via
posterior pituitary		 Uterus and Mammary Stimulates contraction and
secretion of milk
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) Hypothalamus via
posterior pituitary		 Kidney Stimulates reabsorption of water
Thyroxin and
triodothyroxin		 Thyroid gland General Stimulates metabolism, growth and development
Calcitonin Thyroid gland Bone Lowers blood calcium level by inhibiting bone breakdown
Parathyroid hormone Parathyroid gland Bone, kidney
digestive tract		 Increases blood calcium by stimulating bone breakdown
Mineralocorticoids
(aldosterone)		 Adrenal cortex Kidney Maintain sodium and phosphate balance
Glucoocorticoids
(cortisol)		 Adrenal cortex General Raise blood-glucose level adapt to long-term stress
Dehydroepiandrosterone
(DHEA)		 Adrenal cortex   Stimulate sex drive, induce labor
Epinephrine
(adrenalin)		 Adrenal medulla Muscle, liver Stimulates glucose release, short term cope with stress
Norepinephrine Adrenal medulla Blood vessels Constricts blood vessels, increase heart rate
Melatonin Pineal gland Gonads, pigment cells
other cells		 Control biorhythms, influence reproduction
Glucagon Pancreas
alpha cells		 Liver
fatty tissue		 Raise blood glucose concentration, stimulate gluconeogenesis
Insulin Pancreas
beta cells		 General Lower blood glucose concentration, stimulate glycogen synthesis
Estrogen
estradiol		 Ovary General
uterus		 Develop/maintain female characteristics, stimulate growth of uterine lining
Progestrogen Ovary Uterus
breast		 Stimulate development of uterine lining
Relaxin Ovary and
placenta		 Pelvic ligaments Relaxes pelvic ligaments
Chorionic
gonadotropin		 Placenta Anterior pituitary Stimulates release of FSH and LH
Inhibin Testes Anterior lobe
of pituitary		 Inhibits FSH release
Testosterone Testes General and
reproductive structures		 Develops and maintains male sex characteristics, promotes spermatogenesis
