What gland releases posterior pituitary?
The posterior pituitary consists mainly of neuronal projections (axons) extending from thesupraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus. These axons release peptide hormones into the capillaries of the hypophyseal circulation. In addition to axons, the posterior pituitaryalso contains pituicytes, specialized glial cells resembling astrocytes.Classification of the posterior pituitary varies, but most sources include the three regions below:Pars nervosaAlso called the neural lobe or posterior lobe, this region constitutes the majority of the posterior pituitary, and is sometimes (incorrectly) considered synonymous with it. Notable features include Herring bodies and pituicytes.[2]Infundibular stalkAlso known as the infundibulum or pituitary stalk, the infundibular stalk bridges the hypothalamic and hypophyseal systems.Median eminenceThis is only occasionally included as part of the posterior pituitary. Other sources specifically exclude it from the pituitary.[3]A few sources include the pars intermedia as part of the posterior lobe, but this is a minority view. It is based upon the gross anatomical separation of the posterior and anterior pituitary along the cystic remnants of Rathke's pouch, causing the pars intermedia to remain attached to the neurohypophysis.
