text: The hypothalamus releases gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which stimulates the pituitary to release FSH and luteinizing hormone (LH), a closely related hormone also involved in reproduction.
text: Anterior pituitary hormones are proteins and glycoproteins, including somatotropic hormones (growth hormone (GH) and prolactin) and glycoprotein hormones (luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)).
text: The anterior pituitary secretes seven endocrine hormones controlled by releasing and inhibitory factors (Table 1): prolactin from mammotrophs, luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone from gonadotrophs, growth hormone from somatotrophs, thyroid stimulating hormone from thyrotrophs, adrenocorticotrophic hormone from corticotrophs, and melanocyte-stimulating hormone from melanotrophs.
text: The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes growth hormone, prolactin - which stimulates milk production after a woman has given birth, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) which allows for the stimulation of the adrenal glands, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) allowing for the stimulation of the thyroid gland, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to stimulate the ovaries and testes, and luteinizing hormone (LH) also to stimulate the ovaries and testes.
text: Top right, bottom left: Gonadotroph adenomas may show focal immunoreactivity for glycoprotein hormones, including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (not shown), (top right) luteinizing hormone (LH) (LH-IHC stain), and (bottom left) alpha-subunit (alpha-SU) (alpha-SU-IHC stain).
text: The pituitary gland itself consists of a larger anterior lobe that makes the following hormones: adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), growth hormone (GH) and Prolactin.
text: (follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and luteotropic hormone) control the growth and reproductive activity of the gonads.
