The classes of hormones and hormonelike compounds, with some examples Hormone Peptide hormones Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) Corticotropin (adrenocorticotropic hormone, ACTH) Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone, ADH) Insulin Glucagon Amine hormones Epinephrine (adrenaline) Thyroxine (Thyroid hormone) Steroid hormones Cortisol Aldosterone -Estradiol Testosterone Progesterone Eiscosonoids (hormonlike) Postaglandins Leukotrienes Thromboxanes Secreting organ/tissue/cells Hypothalamus Anterior Pituitary Posterior Pituitary Pancreas Pancreas Adrenal medulla Thyroid Adrenal cortex Adrenal cortex Ovary Testis Corpus luteum (in ovary) Function or activity Stimulates thyrotropin release from anterior pituitary Stimulates synthesis of aderenocortical steroids in adrenal cortex Increase blood pressure, promotes water reabsorption by kidney Stimulates glucose uptake and utilization Stimulates glucose production by liver Controls responses to stress, increases heart rate Stimulates metabolism in many tissues Limits glucose utilization, increase blood glucose Regulates sodium retention and blood pressure Regulates activity in Female reproductive tissues Regulates activity in male reproductive tissues Regulates activity in Female reproductive organs during menstrual cycle and pregenancy Trigger smooth muscle contraction; fever, inflammation Cause bronchial constriction; involved in hypersensitivity reaction Regulate blood clotting; vasoconstriction; pletelet aggregation
