AnP Hormones Questions with complete solutions Prostaglandins Function: BP regulation, Induce labor (contractions), Inflammation and secretory activity, Control GI motility Leukotrienes Function: Inflammation/allergic reaction Thromboxane Function: Vasoconstriction, blood clotting Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) Function: Increase cortisol and aldosterone Aldosterone Function: Increase BV via Na reabsorption, K and H secretion via increased activity of Na/K ATPase pumps Angiotensinogen Angiotensin II Function: Aldosterone release (RAAS), Stimulates thirst, Increases ADH, Vasoconstrictor increase peripheral resist Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) (Vasopressin) Function: H2O retention in kidneys, stimulate synthesis of aquaporins and insertion into apical membrane of principal cells in late DCT/CD, Increase blood volume and BP Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) & BNP Function: Antagonist to RAAS, increase urine output so: decrease systemic resistance, H2O and Na, decrease BV and BP Calcitonin Function: Inhibit osteoclasts/bone reabsorption, decrease blood calcium Cholecystokinin (CCK) Function:Pancreatic juice, contraction of gall bladder and bile release, relaxes sphincter Cortisol Function: Stress hormone, increase lipolysis, protein breakdown, blood glucose, BP and BV Endothelins Function: vasoconstriction (response to low blood flow) Epinephrine/ Norepinephrine Function: Stimulatory effects (contraction, secretion, vasoconstriction), bronchodilation Erythropoietin Function: Stimulate erythrocyte production Estrogen Function: Uterine growth (endometrial lining), secondary sex characteristics Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Function: maturation of follicles, spermatogenesis Gastrin Intestinal Gastrin Function: stimulates stomach secretion & HCl Glucagon Function: Increase blood glucose levels, Glycogenolysis, and gluconeogenesis Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) Function: Stimulates release of FSH and LH Growth Hormone (GH) Function: Growth Inhibin Function: Inhibit FSH production Insulin Function: Intake of glucose, gluconeogenesis, glycolysis in liver and muscle in blood, Intake of lipids, synth of triglycerides, adipocytes Insulin-like Growth Factor Function: Regulate cell growth/development Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Function: trigger ovulation/ testosterone secretion Melatonin Function: Regulation of circadian rhythm
