Four distinct hormones from four different glands govern thyroid growth, water reabsorption, glycogen storage, and immune-cell maturation.
- The growth and functional activity of the thyroid gland is controlled by Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), secreted by the anterior pituitary gland (adenohypophysis); TSH stimulates the thyroid to grow and to synthesise/release its own hormones (T3, T4).
- Tubular reabsorption of water in the kidney's distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct is controlled by antidiuretic hormone (ADH, also called vasopressin), synthesised in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary gland (neurohypophysis); it increases water permeability of the tubules, concentrating urine. …
