Supplemental instruction: endocrine secrete things into interstitial fluid, then goes to the. Blood stream, goes throughout the body and causes a response (hormones: exocrine secrete things that end up on the outside of the body (tears, sweat, etc. ) Anterior pituitary gland: hgh human growth hormone , tsh stimulates synthesis and secretion of thyroid. Hormones: fsh females: secretion of estrogen; males: stimulates testes. To produce sperm: prl prolactin initiates milk in the mammary glands, acth adrenocorticotrophic secretes glucocorticoids. Posterior pituitary gland: oxytocin (ot) targets development of the uterus and. Breasts: released by stretching of uterus during labor, adh decreases urine volume; raises blood pressure. Thyroid gland: t3 increases bmb, stimulates synthesis of proteins, accelerates. T4 increases bmr, stimulates synthesis of proteins, accelerates. Parathyroid: pth increases blood calcium and magnesium levels. Adrenal gland: epinephrine produces effects that mimic sympathetic ans. F inhibits secretion of digestive enzymes and secretin: delta inhibits secretion of insulin.
