What Hormones are Secreted by Neurosecretory Cells?
One of the most well-known hormones secreted by neurosecretory cells is oxytocin, which is involved in childbirth and lactation. Another critical hormone is vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone, ADH), which regulates water balance in the body. Additionally, these cells secrete releasing and inhibiting hormones like thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), which control the secretion of other hormones from the anterior pituitary gland.
