Thryroid: Thyroid hormone - Increase the basal metabolic rate, affect protein synthesis, help regulate long bone growth. The effect of the hormone receptor complex binding to DNA to modulate gene expression
Calcitonin - Involved in helping to regulate levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood. Opposing the action of parathyroid hormone. The site of action is on kidenys.
Parathyroid hormone: The main function is blocking reabsorption of phosphate in the proximal tubule while promoting calcium reabsorption in the ascending loop of henle, distal tubule and collecting tubule. The site of action are kidneys, skeletal systema nd intestine.
Glucagon- It raises the concentration of glucose in the bllod by promoting glycogenolysis which is breakdown of glucagon. The site of action is liver
Insulin- It regulates teh metabolism of carbihydrates, fats and protein by promoting the absorption of glucose from blood into liver, fat and skeletal muscles. The site of action is liver.
Somatostatin- Regulates the endocrine system and affects neurotransmission and cell proliferation. Inhibits the release of insulin and glucagon. The site of action is pancrease and liver.
Aldosterone- Stimulates the reabsorption of sodium ions as wells as secretion of potassium and H+ ions. The site of action is primarily renal collecting tubules of kidney.
Cortisol- Increase blood sugar levels through gluconeogenesis, suppress the immune system and metabolism of fat, protein and carbohydrates. The site of action is liver.
Epinephrine- It plays role in increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation and blood sugar. The site of action is skeletal muscles.
Norepinepinephrine- Its main function is to mobilize the brain and body for action. It increase restlessness and anxiety, in body it increases heart rate and bllod pressure. The site of action is heart, GI tract, blood vessels.
Testosterone- Its functions in growth and development of male reproductive tissues and organs such as testes and prostate. The site of action is male reproductive organ.
Estrogen- It functions in femal reproductive development, bone health and protein synthesis. The site of action is female reproductive organs.
Progesterone- It is involved in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and embryogenesis in females. The site of action is uterus and breasts
