Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) | Adrenal Gland Physiology Student Lecture | V-Learning™

Known by a few names, adrenocorticotropic hormone or ACTH or corticotropin, is one of the six anterior pituitary gland hormones. Let sqadia.com be your guide to simplify the physiology of adrenocorticotropic hormone. Learn adrenocorticotropic hormone function, mechanism of action, and hormonal regulation. You will surely learn amazing things in this adrenocorticotropic hormone lecture today! ▬ 🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) Adrenal Gland Physiology Student Lecture 0:41 - Anterior Pituitary Gland Hormones 2:30 - Adrenocorticotropic Hormone 3:46 - Glucocorticoids and Mineralocorticoids 4:44 - Production of ACTH 5:55 - Link to Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) Lecture on sqadia.com ▬ 📌 Anterior Pituitary Hormones As aforementioned, adrenocorticotropic hormone is one of the six hormones released by the anterior pituitary gland. The other anterior pituitary hormones are thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), growth hormone (GH), prolactin, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). All of these hormones have incredibly unique functions and diverse roles in the body. Wondering which hormones are released by the posterior pituitary gland, watch the lecture here. ▬ 📌 Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) secretion The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion is governed by the hypothalamus. In response to stress, the hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). This is recognized by the receptors of corticotroph cells present in the anterior pituitary. Watch the adrenocorticotropic hormone lecture to learn which pathways are triggered and how they lead to the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion into the bloodstream. ▬ 📌 Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) action After release, the adrenocorticotropic hormone target organ is reached, which is the adrenal cortex on both the adrenal glands. Here, the receptors for the recognition of this hormone are present. ACTH attaches to these receptors, resulting in a cascade of pathways. Ultimately, leading to the enzymatic conversion of cholesterol to steroid hormones, in the mitochondrial matrix of adrenal cortex cells. These adrenal steroid hormones namely the cortisol, aldosterone, and precursors for androgens. What do they do? Watch the lecture to find out. ▬ 📌 Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) regulation Every mechanism in the body needs to be regulated and monitored. The main pathway via which this is happening is the negative feedback loop. Why don’t we dive into the different factors that monitor the ACTH release by the anterior pituitary gland? ▬ 🎬 5500+ sqadia.com Medical Videos ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 👩🏻‍⚕️ Accessible Medical Student Education 24/7/365 💡 Simplifying Medical Learning 💪 Study Hard, Dream Big, Achieve More #endocrinology #hormones #physiology #physiologylectures #medicalstudents #medicalstudentlife #humananatomyandphysiology #humananatomymadesimple #anatomyandphysiology
