What are the two hormones that are produced in the hypothalamus but stored in the pituitary?
Oxitocin, and ADH
Produces oxytocin and ADH that are released within the posterior pituitary gland?
ADH and Oxytocin is produced by hypothalamus.It is secreted by inferior pitutory.
How are hormones release by the posterior pituitary?
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH, vasopressin) and Oxytocin
Is oxytocin and adh secreted by posterior pituitary?
Yes they are secreted by posterior pitutory.But they are produced in hypothalamus.
What are Oxytocin and ADH secreted by?
The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland in the brain.
What is secreted by the neurosecretory cells in the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland?
The posterior pituitary has neurosecretory tissue. It is activated by impulses from the hypothalamus and release hormones such as oxytocin and ADH.
Where are ADH and oxytocin synthesized?

What The posterior pituitary stores and releases?
That is correct. The hormones, oxytocin and ADH are manufactured in the hypothalamus and delivered to the posterior pituitary via the supraopticohypophyseal tract.
What is Antidiuretic hormone and oxytocin?
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and Oxytocin are both hormones stored and secreted by the posterior pituitary gland. The main functions of Oxytocin are aiding in sexual reproduction. The main function of ADH is retaining fluid in the body.
How does oxytocin cause water intoxication?
Oxytocin and another hormone, ADH (anti-diuretic hormone) are very similar in structure. If there is too much oxytocin present in the blood it can begin to act like ADH. The job of ADH is to induce the kidneys to produce less urine and help the body retain more fluid. So too much ADH activity leads to volume overload, also known as water intoxication.
What synthesizes oxytocin and ADH?
They are synthesized in hypothalamus.They are secreted by prosterior pitutory.
What hormone is released from the posterior pituitary gland?
The posterior pituitary gland does not actually produce any hormones, instead they are produced by the hypothalamus, then stored in the posterior pituitary which releases them when they are needed. The two hormones stored and released by the posterior pituitary are Oxytocin and Antidiuretic Hormone or vasopressin. The function of Oxytocin is to produce uterine contractions before and after child birth and also to eject milk during breast feeding. Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) also known as vasopressin, controls the production of urine. If we are dehydrated, then ADH is released and inhibits the production of urine, leaving more fluid available to circulate around the body.
