 ==== Erythropoietin ====
-Epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol are hormones produced by the adrenal glands. Erythropoietin, on the other hand, is produced by the kidneys, whose main function is to stimulate the various stages of erythropoiesis, leading to increased erythrocyte production by the bone marrow.

 ==== Parathormone ====
-Parathormone (PTH) is a polypeptide hormone produced by the parathyroid glands. It is responsible for regulating calcium and phosphate metabolism in the body. The amount of parathormone is determined by the number of calcium ions in the blood serum. It is responsible for the release of calcium from the bones and its resorption from the kidney tubules. It also decreases the number of phosphate ions in the blood, improves the reabsorption of calcium ions by inhibiting phosphate absorption, and increases the amount of the active form of vitamin D - calcitriol - produced in the kidneys.

 ==== Thyrotropin ====
-Thyrotropin (TSH) is a glycoprotein made up of two sub-particles (alpha and beta). The antagonist of the alpha sub-particle is chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), that is - the higher the hCG the lower the TSH. In humans, it increases thyroid mass, increases blood flow through the organ, glucose transport, and metabolism, and enhances the production and secretion of thyroid hormones: thyroxine and triiodothyronine. It is produced by thyrotropes, which are polyhedral and contain grains (140-200 nm in diameter) that store it. [([[https://academic.oup.com/edrv/article/30/2/133/2355052|Oxford Academic]])]
