Endocrine Hypothalamus and Anterior Pituitary Chapters 5 and 6
Medial Basal Hypothalamus • Hypophysiotropic • Median eminence to suprachiasmatic region • Parvocellular neurosecretory system – CNS input via synaptic contact – Synthesis of hypophysiotropic factors – Release hypophysial portal system • Via neuronal impingement • Peptide hormones

Anterior Pituitary • Embryonic origin – Through roof of mouth – Differs from post pit • 2 lobes of 3 regions • Pars distalis – Posteriolateral – gonadotrophs, somatotrophs – Anteriomedial – corticotrophs, thyrotrophs • Pars intermedia – melanotrophs – Fetal humans, lower animals • Lactotrophs throughout
Pituitary Hormones • Hypophysiotropic hormones – GHRH, SST (GHIH), TRH, PIH (da), Gn. RH, CRH • Three main families of anterior pituitary hormones – Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) ACTH, MSH – Glycoproteins sharing common a subunit: TSH, FSH, LH – Somatomammotropic (lactogenic): GH, PRL
