Scope note: Hormonas liberadas por la NEUROHIPÓFISIS. Pertenecen a este grupo diversos péptidos que se forman en las NEURONAS del HIPOTÁLAMO, se unen a las NEUROFISINAS y se almacenan en las terminales nerviosas de la neurohipófisis. Después de la estimulación, estos péptidos se liberan en el torrente portal hipofisario.

Scope note: Hormones released from the neurohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, POSTERIOR). They include a number of peptides which are formed in the NEURONS in the HYPOTHALAMUS, bound to NEUROPHYSINS, and stored in the nerve terminals in the posterior pituitary. Upon stimulation, these peptides are released into the hypophysial portal vessel blood.
