Descriptor English: Pituitary Hormones
Descriptor Spanish: Hormonas Hipofisarias
Descriptor hormonas hipofisarias
Scope note: Hormonas segregadas por la HIPÓFISIS, incluidas las del lóbulo anterior (adenohipófisis), el lóbulo posterior (neurohipófisis) y el mal definido lóbulo intermedio. Desde el punto de vista estructural, pueden ser pequeños péptidos, proteínas y glicoproteínas. Están reguladas por señales neuronales (NEUROTRANSMISORES) o neuroendocrinas (HORMONAS HIPOTALÁMICAS) del hipotálamo, así como por la retroalimentación de las hormonas en las que influyen, como las HORMONAS DE LA CORTEZA SUPRARRENAL, los ANDRÓGENOS y los ESTRÓGENOS.

Scope note: Hormones secreted by the PITUITARY GLAND including those from the anterior lobe (adenohypophysis), the posterior lobe (neurohypophysis), and the ill-defined intermediate lobe. Structurally, they include small peptides, proteins, and glycoproteins. They are under the regulation of neural signals (NEUROTRANSMITTERS) or neuroendocrine signals (HYPOTHALAMIC HORMONES) from the hypothalamus as well as feedback from their targets such as ADRENAL CORTEX HORMONES; ANDROGENS; ESTROGENS.
