When the thyroid receives thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland it produces triiodothyronine which is commonly referred to as T3, and thyroxine which is commonly referred to as T4. These hormones regulate the metabolism, protein synthesis and sensitivity to other hormones in the body.
Known as one of the body's master glands, the thyroid's primary purpose is to produce hormones. When the thyroid receives thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland it produces triiodothyronine which is commonly referred to as T3, and thyroxine which is commonly referred to as T4. These hormones regulate the metabolism, protein synthesis and sensitivity to other hormones in the body.

How many hormones do the five types of anterior pitiutary cells secrete?
The five types of anterior pituitary cells secrete several hormones. Gonadotroph cells secrete luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), corticotroph cells secrete adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), lactotroph cells secrete prolactin (PRL), somatotroph cells secrete growth hormone (GH), and thyrotroph cells secrete thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH).

TSH cause the production of?
TSH stands for Thyroid Stimulating hormone it is secreted from the pituitary gland (which is an endocrine gland ) directly into the blood , circulates in the blood till it reaches the thyroid gland where it is picked by certain receptors and cause thyroid gland to secrete thyroid hormone which is of two types T3 and T4
What Foods help secrete more thyroxine?
