ACTH
The secretory activity of the adenohypophysis is controlled by releasing hormones from the hypothalamus. These releasing hormones stimulate or inhibit the release of specific hormones from the adenohypophysis. The hypothalamus communicates with the adenohypophysis through the hypophyseal portal system, which carries releasing hormones directly from the hypothalamus to the adenohypophysis.
The adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis are located in the pituitary gland, which is in the center of the brain.

everyday stress
Alcohol inhibits antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion, leading to increased urine production and promoting dehydration. ADH is produced in the hypothalamus and stored in the posterior pituitary gland, not the adenohypophysis (anterior pituitary gland).
