HORMONES OF THE ANTERIOR LOBE Trop hormones: stimulatory the target organ is another endocrine gland TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) ACTH (adrenocorticotrop hormone) FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) LH (luteinizing hormone) STH (somatotrop hormone) = GH (growth hormone) LTH (luteotrop hormone, prolactin) Gonadotropichormones
Histologicalstructure of theanteriorpituitary • Chromophylcells: trop (stimulating) hormones • STH (GH): regulatinghormones: GHRH, somatostatin, ghrelin • prolactin (LTH); dopamine has inhibitoryeffect, VIP and TRH stimulateitssecretion • TSH • ACTC • gonadotrpichormones: • FSH • LH
STH: growth hormon: - acts on all cells of the body - stimulates the liver to produce and secrete insulun-like growth factor - results in body growth In the abcense of GH during development
