What is The hormone that targets the thyroid gland and triggers the release of thyroid hormone is?

The hormone that targets the thyroid gland and triggers the release of thyroid hormone is thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). It is produced by the pituitary gland in response to low levels of thyroid hormones in the blood. TSH binds to receptors on the thyroid gland, stimulating it to produce and release thyroid hormones.


A hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source?

An example of a hormone that influences an endocrine gland other than its source is thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH is released by the hypothalamus and acts on the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which in turn acts on the thyroid gland to regulate thyroid hormone production.


Does increased thyroid hormone production increase or decrease TSH production?

Increase in thyroid hormone will lower TSH production, because there is a feedback loop between TSH that stimulates the production of thyroid hormone and the hormone that then will then regulate the stimulation of TSH so that thyroid hormone is not over produced.


What anterior pituitary hormone stimulates the thryoid?

Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is the anterior pituitary hormone that stimulates the thyroid gland to produce and release thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism and energy production in the body.


What hormone is needed thyroxine production?

Thyroid releasing hormone (TRH) is released when thyroid hormones are low. Increased thyroid hormone production would serve to inhibit/decrease TRH release.
