Hypothalamic-pituitary disorders: Because of the close interactions between your hypothalamus and pituitary gland, conditions that affect either are called hypothalamic-pituitary disorders. Certain hormone tests can help determine the exact hormone involved to make a more specific diagnosis.
The hormones secreted by the posterior and anterior pituitary, and the intermediate zone between the lobes are summarized in Table 17.3. Figure 17.3.1 – Hypothalamus–Pituitary Complex: The hypothalamus region lies inferior and anterior to the thalamus. It connects to the pituitary gland by the stalk-like infundibulum.

Nov 28, 2016 · In mammals and man, historical investigation suggests that early recognition for a role of the hypothalamus as a site for integration of endocrine, autonomic and behavioral responses can be dated to the 2nd -18th centuries A.D. Although the hypothalamus comprises only 2% of the total brain volume, it is a key regulator of pituitary function and homeostatic balance. In this chapter, we provide ...
