Matching Pairs EndocrineOnline version Match the Hormone with its action by Beth Lucca 1 Insulin 2 Glucagon 3 Vasopressin (anti-diuretic hormone) 4 FSH 5 Oxytocin 6 Prolactin 7 Catecholamines (epinephrine & norepinephrine). 8 LH 9 GH 10 Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) 11 Melanocyte-stimulating hormone 12 Triiodothyronine (T3) & Thyroxine (T4) 13 ACTH 14 Thyrocalcitonin (calcitonin) 15 Mineralocorticoids (aldosterone) 16 TSH 17 Glucocorticoids (cortisol) Increases metabolic rate, increases response to catecholamines. Stimulates maturation of ovarian follicles, ovulation, and estrogen secretion. Stimulates sperm production. Mimics actions of the Sympathetic nervous system, "fight or flight". Promotes gluconeogenesis (increases blood glucose); Decreases glucose use, promotes protein catabolism, promotes fat synthesis, suppresses inflammatory response. Increases pigmentation (skin & hair color). Lowers blood glucose levels by moving glucose into cells. Decreases osteoclastic (breakdown of bone) activity; decreases reabsorption of calcium in the renal tubules; decreases reabsorption of calcium in the intestines. Increases secretion of thyroid hormones, T3 (triiodothyronine) & T4 (thyroxine). Increases water reabsorption. Promotes glycogenolysis (increased blood glucose levels by conversion of glycogen to glucose) promotes gluconeogenesis (increased blood glucose levels by conversion of amino acids to glucose). Stimulates secretion of estrogen and progesterone and ovulation; stimulates testosterone production. Promotes sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion by the kidney. Increases osteoclastic (bone breakdown) activity; increases renal tubule reabsorption of calcium, increases GI reabsorption of calcium (Vitamin D required) Increases secretion of Glucocorticoids & Mineralocorticoids Stimulates uterine contractions in labor & milk ejaculation. Stimulates production of breast milk. Facilitates growth of bones and tissues through protein synthesis, fat metabolism, and insulin antagonism.
