HYPOTHALAMIC RELEASING
HORMONES
Eight releasing hormones are made in the
hypothalamus
Thyrotropin -releasing hormone (TRH)
Corticotropin -releasing hormone (CRH)
Gonadotropin -releasing hormone (GnRH)
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH)
Growth hormone-release inhibiting hormone (GHIH)
Prolactin - releasing factor (PRF)
Prolactin -inhibiting hormone (PIH)
Luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH)

(ADENOHYPOPHYSIS)

Gross View
Pars Nervosa The posterior pituitary (or neurohypophysis) is the posterior lobe of
the pituitary gland which is part of the endocrine system. The posterior pituitary is
not glandular as is the anterior pituitary. 11

HORMONES

ANTERIOR PITUITARY
HORMONES
Growth Hormone (GH, Somatotropin): primary
hormone responsible for regulating body growth, and is
important in metabolism.
14
Hypothalamic hormone Effects on the anterior
pituitary
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone Stimulates release of TSH
(TRH) (thyrotropin) and Prolactin
Corticotropin-releasing hormone Stimulates release of ACTH
(CRH) (corticotropin)
Gonadrotropin-releasing hormone Stimulates release of FSH and LH
(GnRH) (gonadotropins)
Growth hormone-releasing Stimulates release of growth
hormone (GHRH) hormone
Growth hormone-inhibiting Inhibits release of growth
hormone (GHIH) hormone
Prolactin-inhibiting hormone Stimulates release of Prolactin
(PIH)
Prolactin-inhibiting hormone Inhibits release of Prolactin
(PIH) 15
GROWTH HORMONE ACTIVITY
Increases plasma free fatty acids (FFA) - source of
energy for muscle tissue.
Growth hormone enhances the utilization of fat by
stimulating triglyceride breakdown and oxidation in
adipocytes. (a cell specialized for the storage of fat)
Increases hepatic glucose output.
16
GROWTH HORMONE ACTIVITY
Exerts its growth-promoting through interactions [mainly
induction of Insulin-like Growth Factor I (IGF-I)].
IGF-I synthesis is stimulated by GH
Major source of IGF-I is the liver; IGF-I is also locally produced
in other tissues.
Physiologic effects of growth hormones:
Direct effects: GH binding its receptor on target cells e.g.
fat cells have GH receptors, and GH stimulate them to break
down triglyceride and supresses their ability to take up and
accumulate circulating lipids .

Figure 7-13: Hormones of the hypothalamic-anterior pituitary pathway
POSTERIOR PITUITARY
Comprised of the endings of axons from cell bodies in the
hypothalamus (supraoptic and paraventricular).Axons pass from
the hypothalamus to the posterior pituitary via the
hypothalamohypophysial tract. Posterior pituitary hormones are
synthesized in the cell bodies of neurons in the supraoptic and
paraventricular nuclei.
The supraoptic nucleus is a group of approximately 3,000 cells in the hypothalamus
responsible for producing anti-diuretic hormone, or vasopressin. Vasopressin
stimulates the body to raise blood pressure and retain water.

SECRETION
Secretion is Stimulated by:
1.Large decreases in blood volume
2.Decreases in blood pressure
3.Pain, fear, trauma, and stress
