Document Summary
Function: a, axons pass from the hypothalamus to the posterior pituitary via the hypothalamohypophysial tract. If there is damage to one cell, there is damage to all of them. Hormones (+site-names, types, function) (notably those important to exercise: grouped into families based on structural similarity (+ all proteins/peptide hormones similarity is a result of amino acid sequences) Adenohypophysial hormones: (a)growth hormone (gh/somatoropin) and (b)prolactin, many effects are indirect and are primarily mediated by. Somatomedins (igf"s: glycoprotein hormones (gonadotropins fsh and lh downstream hormones, and tsh) *not a hormone but is a pro" hormone: proopiomelanocortin. Act on each other"s receptors, (i)they regulate body growth (*anabolic but not a steroid) and (ii) increase breast development and milk production. It is also involved in testicular function (iii) tropic + protein hormone (b. Igf many tissue: pro hormone, thyroid stimulating. *care about downstream hormones: luteining hormone (lh-lutropin) *care about downstream hormones: melanocyte stimulating hormone (msh)
