thyroxine
Prolactin is the hormone responsible for stimulating and maintaining milk production after childbirth. It is produced by the pituitary gland located in the brain in response to the baby suckling at the breast.
luteinizing hormone (LH)
There are many factors which affect an organism's metabolic rate, but the thyroid gland is a gland in the neck which produces thyroxine, a hormone that stimulates metabolism.
Oestrogen stimulates the hormone LH. LH is secreted in pituitary gland and stimulates the release of an egg
The interstitial cell-stimulating hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone. In the male, it stimulates the secretion of testosterone.
The luteinizing hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone.
growth hormone-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus
Growth Hormone (GH) directly stimulates metabolic processes by promoting protein synthesis, enhancing lipolysis (fat breakdown), and increasing blood glucose levels through gluconeogenesis. These metabolic effects contribute to muscle growth and fat reduction, thereby complementing GH's role in promoting linear growth and overall development. By fostering an anabolic environment, GH not only supports tissue growth but also ensures that energy availability is optimized for growth and repair.
Norepinephrine stimulates the release of adrenaline (epinephrine) from the adrenal medulla.
No, growth hormone is not glucose sparing. Growth hormone stimulates the breakdown of stored glycogen (a form of glucose) in the liver, leading to an increase in blood glucose levels. This increase in blood glucose helps to provide energy for growth and other metabolic processes.
The follicle stimulating hormone produced by the pituitary gland stimulates the growth of the ovum. Luteinizing hormone of the pituitary produces ovulation.
The hormone that stimulates the release of sugar from the liver into the blood is called glucagon.
