UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007030 Hypothalamo-Hypophyseal System A collection of NEURONS, tracts of NERVE FIBERS, endocrine tissue, and blood vessels in the HYPOTHALAMUS and the PITUITARY GLAND. This hypothalamo-hypophyseal portal circulation provides the mechanism for hypothalamic neuroendocrine (HYPOTHALAMIC HORMONES) regulation of pituitary function and the release of various PITUITARY HORMONES into the systemic circulation to maintain HOMEOSTASIS.

D007980 Levodopa The naturally occurring form of DIHYDROXYPHENYLALANINE and the immediate precursor of DOPAMINE. Unlike dopamine itself, it can be taken orally and crosses the blood-brain barrier. It is rapidly taken up by dopaminergic neurons and converted to DOPAMINE. It is used for the treatment of PARKINSONIAN DISORDERS and is usually given with agents that inhibit its conversion to dopamine outside of the central nervous system.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.

It suppresses prolactin secretion. 2-Bromoergocryptine,Bromocryptin,2-Bromo-alpha-ergocryptine,2-Bromo-alpha-ergokryptine,2-Bromoergocryptine Mesylate,2-Bromoergocryptine Methanesulfonate,2-Bromoergokryptine,Bromocriptin,Bromocriptine Mesylate,CB-154,Parlodel,2 Bromo alpha ergocryptine,2 Bromo alpha ergokryptine,2 Bromoergocryptine,2 Bromoergocryptine Mesylate,2 Bromoergocryptine Methanesulfonate,2 Bromoergokryptine,CB 154,CB154,Mesylate, 2-Bromoergocryptine,Mesylate, Bromocriptine,Methanesulfonate, 2-Bromoergocryptine
D005260 Female Females
D006065 Gonadotropins, Pituitary Hormones secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR) that stimulate gonadal functions in both males and females. They include FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE that stimulates germ cell maturation (OOGENESIS; SPERMATOGENESIS), and LUTEINIZING HORMONE that stimulates the production of sex steroids (ESTROGENS; PROGESTERONE; ANDROGENS). Pituitary Gonadotropins
