| Description: In summary, the anterior pituitary gland secretes human growth hormone (hGH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), prolactin (PRL), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH). The posterior pituitary gland does not synthesize any hormones, but stores and releases from axon terminals two hormones produced by the neurosecretory cells of the hypothalamus: oxytocin (OT) and anti-diuretic hormone (ADH). Axons from the neurosecretory cells form the hypothalamohypophys eal tract.
