Embryologically, the two portions of the pituitary originate from different sources the posterior pituitary from a neural tissue the anterior pituitary from Rathke's pouch Downloaded from: StudentConsult (on 27 May 2006 01:16 PM) 2005 Elsevier
Pituitary Gland It is often referred to as the master gland as it produces at least 10 hormones which influence the other endocrine glands. Anterior pituitary form a true endocrine gland and called adenohypophysis. posterior pituitary, also called neurohypophysis, is composed mainly of glial-like cells and terminal nerve endings.
The normal gross appearance of the pituitary gland The normal gross appearance of the pituitary gland removed from the sella turcica is shown here. The larger portion, the anterior pituitary (adenohypophysis), is toward the top. The image at the left shows the superior aspect of the pituitary with the stalk coming from the hypothalamus entering it. The inferior aspect of the pituitary is shown at the right. The.posterior pituitary (neurohypophysis) is the smaller portion at the bottom

Hypothalamic Releasing and Inhibitory Hormones Are Secreted into the Median Eminence They Control Anterior Pituitary Secretion Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), which causes release of thyroidstimulating hormone (TSH) Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), which causes release of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), which causes release of growth hormone (GH), and growth hormone inhibitory hormone (GHIH), also called somatostatin, which inhibits release of growth hormone (GH) Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which causes release of the two gonadotropic hormones, luteinizing hormone (LH) and folliclestimulating hormone (FSH) Prolactin inhibitory hormone (PIH), which causes inhibition of prolactin secretion

PreProADH PreProoxytocin ADH
Chemical Structures of Antidiuretic Hormone and Oxytocin (ADH)
Physiological Functions of Antidiuretic Hormone
In the presence of ADH, the permeability of the collecting ducts and tubules to water increases greatly and allows most of the water to be reabsorbed ADH (V 2, camp)
The osmolality establishes the driving force for osmotic reabsorption of water
Aquaporins (AQPs) in the principal cell of distal tubule
ADH Increases Water Reabsorption by AQP2
ADH (Vasopressin) Vasopressin (V 1, PLC)
Regulation of Antidiuretic Hormone Production Hyperosmolarity (1-2%) Hypophysis Decreased artrial volum ( 10-15%) (15-25%) Decreased arterial pressure (5-10%) (15%) Sympathetic stimulation Angiotensin II ADH Vasoconstriction Renal Fluid Reabsorption Increased Arterial Pressure Increased Blood Volum
Quantitative Importance of Osmolarity and Cardiovascular Reflexes in Stimulating ADH Secretion
Stimulation of ADH Release by Decreased Arterial Pressure and/or Decreased Blood Volume and/or Increased Extracellular Fluid Osmolarity

Oxytocic Hormone Oxytocin Causes Contraction of the Pregnant Uterus Oxytocin Aids in Milk Ejection by the Breasts
Possitive feedback effects of Oxytocin
Oxytocin causes contraction of myoepithelial cells in the alveoli of the mammary glands.
Oxytocin powerfully stimulates contraction of the pregnant uterus, especially toward the end of gestation Uterine contraction Di Stretching of cervix and vagina
Oxytocin What s the role of oxytocin in men?

Lifetime pattern of GH secretion. GH levels are higher in children than in adults, with a peak period during puberty. GH secretion declines with aging

Some of the principal signaling pathways activated by the dimerized growth hormone receptor (GHR)
Growth Hormone Has Several Metabolic Effects (1) increased protein synthesis (2) increased use of fatty acids for energy (3) decreased glucose utilization
Growth Hormone Metabolic effects Proteins lipids Carbohydrates Growth effects Necessity of Insulin for the Growth-Promoting Action of GH
Effect of growth hormone, insulin, and growth hormone plus insulin on growth in a depancreatized and hypophysectomized rat
Factors that stimulate secretion of GH Decreased blood glucose Decreased blood free fatty acids Increased blood amino acids (arginine) Starvation or fasting, protein deficiency Trauma, stress, excitement Exercise Testosterone, estrogen Deep sleep (stages III and IV) Growth hormone-releasing hormone Ghrelin
Effects of fasting on GH secretion
Effect of protein deficiency on plasma GH and failure of carbohydrate treatment but the effectiveness of protein treatment in lowering GH concentration
Factors that inhibit secretion of GH Increased blood glucose Increased blood free fatty acids Aging Obesity Growth hormone inhibitory hormone (somatostatin) Growth hormone (exogenous) Somatomedin C (insulin-like growth factors-1, IGF-1)
Growth Hormone Exerts Much of Its Effect Through Intermediate Substances Called Somatomedins (Also Called Insulin-Like Growth Factors ) GH stimulates liver, cartilage, skeletal muscle and bone to produce Somatomedin (Somatomedin C or IGF-1) Most effects of GH are mediated indirectly by somatomedin C Direct action of GH promotes lipolysis and inhibits glucose uptake
Direct & Indirect Actions of GH Figure 15.6
Effects of GH & IGF-1
Complementary regulation of GH and insulin secretion coordinates availability of nutrients with anabolism and either caloric storage or mobilization
Short Duration of GH Action but Prolonged Action of IGF-1
Possible Role of Decreased Growth Hormone Secretion in Causing Changes Associated with Aging the average plasma concentration of GH 5 to 20 years 6 ng/ml 20 to 40 years 3 40 to 70 years 1.6 treatment of elderly patients with GH: insulin resistance and diabetes, edema, and joint pain. Therefore, GH therapy is generally not recommended for use in healthy elderly patients with normal endocrine function.
Hypothalamic signals depicting emotions, stress, and trauma can all affect hypothalamic control of growth hormone secretion
GH Stimulates Cartilage and Bone Growth (1) increased deposition of protein by the chondrocytic and osteogenic cells (2) increased rate of reproduction of these cells (3) a specific effect of converting chondrocytes into osteogenic cells thus causing deposition of new bone.
