1 Pineal gland Hypothalamus Pituitary gland Thyroid gland Parathyroid glands (on dorsal aspect of thyroid gland) Thymus Adrenal glands Pancreas Ovary (female) Testis (male)

2 Inferior hypophyseal artery
Hypothalamic neurons synthesize oxytocin and ADH. 1 Paraventricular nucleus Hypothalamus Supraoptic nucleus Oxytocin and ADH are transported along the hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract to the posterior pituitary. 2 Optic chiasma Infundibulum (connecting stalk) Inferior hypophyseal artery Hypothalamic- hypophyseal tract Oxytocin and ADH are stored in axon terminals in the posterior pituitary. 3 Axon terminals Oxytocin and ADH are released into the blood when hypothalamic neurons fire. 4 Posterior lobe of pituitary Oxytocin ADH

3 Hyoid bone Thyroid cartilage Epiglottis Common carotid artery Superior thyroid artery Inferior thyroid artery Isthmus of thyroid gland Trachea Left subclavian artery Left lateral lobe of thyroid gland Aorta

4 . Follicle cells Colloid-filled follicles Parafollicular cell

7 Chief cells (secrete parathyroid hormone) Oxyphil cells Capillary

8 . Capsule Zona glomerulosa Zona fasciculata Adrenal gland Cortex
• Medulla • Cortex Zona reticularis Kidney Medulla Adrenal medulla

9 Hormones secreted Capsule Zona glomerulosa Aldosterone Zona fasciculata Adrenal gland • Medulla Cortisol and androgens • Cortex Zona reticularis Kidney Adrenal medulla Epinephrine and NE
