text: follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH) are among the many hormones produced in the anterior pituitary.
text: adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) produced by anterior pituitary; stimulates secretion of steroid hormones (esp. cortisol) by adrenal cortex, target cells in the adrenal cortex; AP
text: This hormone is produced by the anterior pituitary and then travels toward the thyroid gland, which it stimulates to cause the release of other hormones.
text: This hormone is produced by the anterior pituitary and then travels toward the thyroid gland, which it stimulates to cause the release of other hormones.
text: This hormone is also produced by the anterior pituitary and then travels toward the adrenal gland.
text: This hormone is also produced by the anterior pituitary and then travels toward the adrenal gland.
text: Many of the hormones produced by the anterior pituitary are tropic hormones or tropins, which are hormones that stimulate other endocrine glands to secrete their hormones.
text: Hormonal output from the thyroid is regulated by the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the anterior pituitary, which itself is regulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) produced by the hypothalamus.
text: When the hypothalamus receives a signal for the need of a hormone produced by the anterior pituitary, it sends releasing hormones through short portal vessels and into a second capillary network within the anterior pituitary, where it acts on a specific hormone.
text: The other hormones produced by the anterior pituitary regulate the production of hormones by other endocrine tissues (Table 16.1).
text: T 3 and T 4 are released by the thyroid in response to thyroid-stimulating hormone produced by the anterior pituitary, and both T 3 and T 4 have the effect of stimulating metabolic activity in the body and increasing energy use.
