Anterior Pituitary



What is anterior pituitary gland I say?
Anterior pituitary is my topic for today
It is also called adenopophysis
The out pocketing of the primitive buccal epitheliums it’s origins

It has 7 distinct hormones that secretes cells
Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone (ACTH)  is my first scene
Its stimulates the adrenal gland formation
ACTH is also known ascorticotrophin.

Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is my secondhormone
 It stimulates ovulation and the development of the corpus luteum in the female
The production of testosterone by the interstitial cells of the testis in the male
 That helps our body everyday.
                            

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
 is the third place I’ve seen
Thyrotrophs a type of basophil that secretes thyrotropin
.
This secretes its own hormone that I recall
Thyrotrophin is what they also call.






Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (
FSH)
is my fourth hormone
FSH stimulates the maturation of ovarian follicle
FSH is also critical for sperm production
Support many aspects of sperm cell maturation.













Prolactin (PRL) is my fifth
A single-chain protein hormone closely related to growth hormone
It is secreted by so-called lactotrophs
most prominently various immune cells


Growth Hormone is my sixth hormones (GH)
A protein hormone of about 190 amino acids
Secreted by cells called somatotrophs
 That control several complex physiologic processes

Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (MSH) is my lasts
Exact role in humans unknown, but increases skin pigmentation in amphibians.
 It is also known as intermedin 
Skin cells that contain the black pigment, melanin.





Hope you just understood
What I just reviewed
Which I just did
 For you to read

Clinical Chemistry III-Endocrinology, Toxicology and Drug Testing

Endocrinology is a part of our physiologic regulatory system, the collection of hormones, proteins and other components and other processes form the endocrine system. The Endocrine System is consists of many ductless glands that produce highly active chemical regulators called "hormone.



Functions of Hormones

1.  It is a substances which can be secreted and produced into the blood by an tissue or an organ.
2. It has a target tissue which is located away from the site of hormones.
3. It promote production and release certain other hormones.
4. Regulate energy production




Toxicology is a study of poisonous toxic drugs. The substance that when taken in sufficient quantity which causes death is toxicant. Toxicity is well defined as"super or extremely" toxic.


Factors that Influence Toxicity

1. Physical State and Solubility
2. Exposure of different toxicant(route, exposure)
3. Toxicokinetics of the toxicant by metabolic processes.


Drug Testing
- it is used to confirm drugs which found in patients serum or urine etc. using drug- screening method.Gas Chromatography is normally used to confirm drugs detected by screening techniques. 

Kinds of Drug Testing
1.Urine Drug Testing
2. Hair Drug Testing
3.Oral/Saliva Drug Testing
4. Surface Drug Detection Wipes
