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).


Does the stomach contain hormone producing cells?

"Glands" are like tiny pits in the lining of the stomach. These glands are lined with certain cells: Parietal cells: secrete acid and intrinsic factor Mucous cells: secrete mucus Chief cells: secrete pepsinogen Enteroendocrine cells: secrete various Stem cells: create new cells (So glands are not cells)


Do the pancreatic islets secrete their hormones into the same duct system by the exocrine secretory cells?

No, the pancreatic islets, which contain endocrine cells secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream, while the exocrine secretory cells secrete digestive enzymes into ducts that eventually empty into the small intestine.

What cell in the digestive system produces lysozyme?

Paneth cellsIn addition to defensins, Paneth cells secrete lysozyme[6], tumor necrosis factor-alpha[6] , and phospholipase A2.[citation needed] Lysozyme and phospholipase A2 both have clear antimicrobial activity.
