Anterior pituitary• Anterior pituitary: connected to the
hypothalamus by hypothalmoanterior pituitary portal vessels.
• The anterior pituitary produces six peptide hormones: – prolactin, growth hormone (GH), – thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), – adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), – follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), – luteinizing hormone (LH).

Feedback regulation of hypothalmus/pituitary
A prominent feature of each of the hormonal sequences initiated by the hypothalamic releasing hormones is negative feedback exerted upon the hypothalamic-pituitary system by the hormones whose production are stimulated in the sequence.

Feedback control of
growth hormone
![Page 11: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Regulation of Growth Hormone Secretion
• GH secretion controlled primarily by hypothalamic GHRH stimulation and somatostatin inhibition
• Neurotransmitters involved in control of GH secretion– via regulation of GHRH and somatostatin
![Page 12: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Neurotransmitter systems that stimulate GHRH and/or inhibit somatostatin– Catecholamines acting via 2-adrenergic
receptors– Dopamine acting via D1 or D2 receptors– Excitatory amino acids acting via both NMDA
and non-NMDA receptors
Regulation of Growth Hormone Secretion
![Page 13: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
-adrenergic receptors stimulate somatostatin release and inhibit GH
-adrenergic receptors inhibit hypothalamic release of GHRH
Regulation of Growth Hormone Secretion
![Page 14: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Additional central mechanisms that control GH secretion include an ultra-short feedback loop exerted by both somatostatin and GHRH on their own secretion

![Page 15: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Growth hormone vs. metabolic state
• When protein and energy intake are adequate, it is appropriate to convert amino acids to protein and stimulate growth. hence GH and insulin promote anabolic reactions during protein intake
• During carbohydrate intake, GH antagonizes insulin effects-- blocks glucose uptake to prevent hypoglycemia. (if there is too much insulin, all the glucose would be taken up).
• When there is adequate glucose as during absorptive phase, and glucose uptake is required, then GH secretion is inhibited so it won't counter act insulin action.
![Page 16: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• During fasting, GH antagonizes insulin action and helps mediate glucose sparing, ie stimulates gluconeogenesis
• In general, during anabolic or absorptive phase, GH facilitates insulin action, to promote growth.
• during fasting or post-absorptive phase, GH opposes insulin action, to promote catabolism or glucose sparing
Growth hormone vs. metabolic state

Clinical assessment of GH
• Random serum samples not useful due to pulsatile pattern of release
• Provocative tests necessary– GH measurement after 90 min exercise– GH measurement immediately after onset of sleep
• Definitive tests– GH measurement after insulin-induced hypoglycemia– Glucose suppresses GH levels 30-90 min after
administration– patients with GH excess do not suppress– Measurement of IGF-1 to assess GH excess
![Page 19: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Acromegaly and Gigantism• Caused by eosinophilic adenomas of somatotrophs• Excess GH leads to development of gigantism if
hypersecretion is present during early life– a rare condition– Symmetrical enlargement of body resulting in true giant
with overgrowth of long bones, connective tissue and visceral organs.
• Excess GH leads to acromegaly if hypersecretion occurs after body growth has stopped.– Elongation of long bones not possible so there is over
growth of cancellous bones– protruding jaw, thickening of phalanges, and over growth of visceral organs
![Page 20: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

ACTH: adrenocorticotropic hormone: synthesis and regulation of secretion
• Produced in corticotrophs• ACTH is produced in the anterior pituitary by
proteolytic processing of Prepro-opiomelanocortin (POMC).
• Other neuropeptide products include and lipotropin, -endorphin, and -melanocyte-stimulating hormone (-MSH).
• ACTH is a key regulator of the stress response
![Page 23: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ACTH synthesis
Processing and cleavage of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC)
ACTH
![Page 24: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ACTH
ACTH is made up of 39 amino acidsRegulates adrenal cortex and synthesis of
adrenocorticosteroids-MSH resides in first 13 AA of ACTH-MSH stimulates melanocytes and can darken
skinOverproduction of ACTH may accompany
increased pigmentation due to -MSH.
![Page 25: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Addison’s Disease
• Disease in which patients lack cortisol from zona fasiculata, and thus lacks negative feedback that suppresses ACTH production
• Result: overproduction of ACTH• Skin color will darken• JFK had Addison’s disease and was treated
with cortisol injections
![Page 26: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
-endorphin
• Produced as a result of ACTH synthesis• Binds to opiate receptors• Results in “runner’s high” • Role in anterior pituitary not completely
understood• One of many endogenous opioids such as
enkephalins
![Page 27: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Melanocyte-stimulating hormone(MSH)
• MSH peptides derived by proteolytic cleavage of POMC
-MSH has antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects– Also inhibits CRH and LHRH secretion
• Four MSH receptors identified• May inhibit feeding behavior• ACTH has MSH-like activity • However– MSH has NO ACTH like activity
![Page 28: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Regulation of ACTH secretion
![Page 29: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Regulation of ACTH secretion
• Stimulation of release– CRH and ADH– Stress– Hypoglycemia
• CRH and ADH both synthesized in hypothalamus– ADH (a.k.a. vasopressin) is released by posterior
pituitary and reaches anterior pituitary via inferior hypophyseal artery.
![Page 30: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Deficiency of vasopressin (ADH) in hereditary diabetes insipidus is accompanied by decreased ACTH release.
• Vasopressin potentiates CRH at both hypothalamic and pituitary levels.
• Many vasopressinergic neurons also contain CRH resulting in co-release of two peptides into portal blood.
Regulation of ACTH secretion
![Page 31: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
ACTH
• Circadian pattern of release– Highest levels of cortisol are in early AM
following ACTH release– Depends on sleep-wake cycle, jet-lag can result
in alteration of pattern• Opposes the circadian pattern of growth
hormone secretion
![Page 32: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Regulation of ACTH
![Page 33: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ACTH
• Acts on adrenal cortex– stimulates growth of cortex (trophic action)– Stimulates steroid hormone synthesis
• Lack of negative feedback from cortisol results in aberrantly high ACTH, elevated levels of other adrenal corticosteroids– adrenal androgens
• Adrenogenital syndrome: masculization of female fetus
![Page 34: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Glycoprotein hormones
LH, FSH, TSH and hCG and subunitsEach subunit encoded by different gene
subunit is identical for all hormones subunit are unique and provide biological
specificity
![Page 35: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Glycoprotein hormones
Glycoprotein hormones contain two subunits, a common subunit and a distinct subunit:
TSH, LH, FSH and hCG.
![Page 36: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Gonadotrophs
• Cells in anterior pituitary that produce LH and FSH
• Synthesis and secretion stimulated by GnRH– major effect on LH
• FSH secretion controlled by inhibin • Pulsitile secretion of GnRH and inhibin cause
distinct patterns of LH and FSH secretion
![Page 37: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
LH/FSH
• Pulsatile pattern of secretion– LH pulses are biphasic (every 1 minute, then large pulse
at 1 hour)– FSH pulses are uniphasic
• Diurnal– LH/FSH more pronounced during puberty• Cyclic in females– ovarian cycle with LH surge at
time of ovulation• Males are not cyclic, but constant pulses of LH
cause pulses of testosterone to be produced
![Page 38: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Pulsitile secretion of GnRH and LH
![Page 39: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Regulation of LH/FSH
• Negative feed-back– Inhibin produced by testes and ovaries Decreases FSH
-subunit expression – Testosterone from Leydig cells– synthesis stimulated
by LH, feedsback to inhibit GnRH production from hypothalamus and down-regulates GnRH receptors
– Progesterone– suppresses ovulation, basis for oral contraceptives. Works at both the level of pituitary and hypothalamus.
![Page 40: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• Dopamine, endorphin, and prolactin inhibit GnRH release. – Prolactin inhibition affords post-partum contraceptive
effect• Overproduction of prolactin via pituitary tumor
can cause amenorrhea– shuts off GnRH– Treated with bromocryptine (dopamine agonist)– Surgical removal of pituitary tumor
Regulation of LH/FSH
![Page 41: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Positive feedback– Estradiol at high plasma concentrations in late
follicular phase of ovarian cycle stimulates GnRH and LH surge– triggers ovulation
Regulation of LH/FSH
![Page 42: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Regulation of gonadotropin
secretion
![Page 43: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Thyrotrophs
• Site of TSH synthesis• Pattern of secretion is relatively steady• TSH secretion stimulated by TRH• Feedback control by T3 (thyroid hormone)
![Page 44: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Feedback control of
thyroid function
![Page 45: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Grave’s disease
• Hyperthyroidism caused by circulating antibodies to the TSH receptor.
• Associated with diffuse goiter. • Autoantibodies bind to TSH receptor and
mimic the action of TSH itself leads to persistent stimulation of thyroid and elevated levels of thyroid hormones.
![Page 46: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Lacotrophs
• Site of production of prolactin• Lactogenesis (milk synthesis) requires prolactin• Tonically inhibited
– Of the anterior pituitary hormones, the only one– Multifactoral control, balance favors inhibition
• Dopamine inhibits prolactin• Prolactin releasing hormone is TRH
– Ocytocin also stimulates prolactin release– Estradiol enhances prolactin synthesis
![Page 47: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Prolactin
• Stimulates breast development and lactogenesis
• May be involved in development of Leydig cells in pre-pubertal males
• Immunomodulatory effects– stimulates T cell functions– Prolactin receptors in thymus
![Page 48: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Clinical assessment of PRL
• Single basal serum PRL measurement sufficient to determine excess– PRL deficiency not a usual clinical concern
• PRL is only anterior pituitary with predominant negative control by hypothalamus– often elevated by lesions that interfere with portal blood flow.
• Elevated by primary PRL adenomas of pituitary
![Page 49: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Posterior pituitary hormones: ADH (AVP) and Oxytocin (hypothalamic hormones)
Both are synthesized in the cell bodies of hypothalamic neurons
ADH: supraoptic nucleus Oxytocin: paraventricular nucleus Both are synthesized as preprohormones and
processed into nonapeptides (nine amino acids). They are released from the termini in response to
an action potential which travels from the axon body in the hypothalamus
![Page 50: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Hypothalamus and posterior pituitary

In uterus during parturitionIn mammary gland during
lactation
Oxytocin: stimulates myoepithelial contractions
![Page 53: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Oxytocin: milk ejection from lactating mammary gland
suckling is major stimulus for release.
sensory receptors in nipple connect with nerve fibers to the spine, then impulses are relayed through brain to PVN where cholinergic synapses fire on oxytocin neurons and stimulate release.
![Page 54: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Oxytocin: uterine contractions
• Reflexes originating in the cervical, vaginal and uterus stimulate oxytocin synthesis and release via neural input to hypothalamus
• Increases in plasma at time of ovulation, parturition, and coitus
• Estrogen increases synthesis and lowers threshold for release
![Page 55: endocrine hormones](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5875a9e11a28ab8b618b4653/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
