Not all of the cleavages occur in all species and some occur only in the intermediate lobe of the pituitary. The major attributes of the hormones other than ACTH that are produced in this process are summarized as follows:.
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone. Its key function is to stimulate the production and release of cortisol from the cortex outer part of the adrenal gland. Alternative names for adrenocorticotropic hormone Adrenocorticotrophin; Corticotropin What is adrenocorticotropic hormone?

Cytokine production would be increased in a few hours and undoubtedly would modify the responses of the pituitary to the continued altered secretion of releasing and inhibiting hormones.
In addition to the proinflammatory cytokines which we have discussed extensively, it is now clear that there are a number of anti-inflammatory cytokines, the first one to be discovered being the IL-1 receptor antagonist, but IL and IL also play this role as indicated above.
These are also induced in the brain by LPS and may play roles at hypothalamic and pituitary levels to diminish the response to the proinflammatory cytokines.

Your doctor will also look at your results based on your age, health, and other factors. A value that isn't in the normal range may still be normal for you. Dalkin MD - Endocrinology.
