The anterior pituitary stimulates other endocrine glands to secrete a group of hormones called Brain Releasing Factors. These hormones are classified as Tropic hormones. Neurotransmitters and target hormones are not part of this group. Hormones that directly activate enzymes are classified as water-insoluble or water-soluble. They can be either amino acid-based or nucleic acid-based. The islets of Langerhans are found in the pancreas and are part of the endocrine system. Gigantism results from the hypersecretion of growth hormone. Oxytocin is produced in the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland. Hypoglycemia is a result of the hypersecretion of insulin. This hormone is involved in sodium regulation and water balance. It is called ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) or Aldosterone. Cushing's disease is caused by the hypersecretion of the adrenal cortex. Exophthalmos is a sign of hypersecretion of thyroid hormone. The target organ of thyrotropin-stimulating hormone is the thyroid gland. The hypothalamus regulates the endocrine system.
