When osmolarity increases above the threshold, the ever-alert osmoreceptors recognize this a the cue to stimulate the neurons that secrete antidiuretic hormone. Secretion of antidiuretic hormone is also simulated by decreases in blood pressure and volume, conditions sensed by stretch receptors in the heart and large arteries. Changes in blood pressure and volume are not nearly as sensitive a stimulator as increased osmolarity, but are nonetheless potent in severe conditions. For example, Loss of 15 or 20% of blood volume by hemorrhage results in massive secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Another potent stimulus of antidiuretic hormone is nausea and vomiting, both of which are controlled by regions in the brain with links to the hypothalamus.

What is a hormone secreted from the posterior pituitary that is involved in water balance is?

The hormone secreted from the posterior pituitary that is involved in water balance is called antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. ADH helps regulate the amount of water reabsorbed by the kidneys, thereby controlling the concentration of urine produced.


Which hormone is secreted by the pituitary glands and increase the permeability of the collecting tube to water?

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is the hormone secreted by the pituitary gland that increases the permeability of the collecting tubule to water. This allows the body to reabsorb more water and concentrate the urine, helping maintain water balance in the body.
