Hypothalamus
Overall role of the endocrine
system Functions: Control of pituitary hormone release; interface between events
inside and outside the body and their endocrine response (from other glands)
Metabolism, water &
electrolyte balance Hormones: Corticotropin Releasing Hormone, Thyrotropin Releasing
Hormone, Somatostatin, Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone, Prolactin
Stress response: physiological
and psychological Releasing Hormone, Prolactin inhibiting factor.

There is no axis asset for prolactin or
growth hormone as these go straight to
their target cells
Posterior pituitary gland
Functions: Involved in regulating overall water balance; uterine
