ADH aka antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin)
located in the pituitary gland (posterior); produced in the hypothalamus and stored/released by pituitary gland (posterior); targets the kidneys and blood vessels by increasing water retention

located in the thyroid gland; targets most cells by stimulating cellular metabolism

located in the thyroid gland; targets bone and kidneys by lowering blood calcium
PTH aka Parathyroid hormone
located in the parathyroid gland; targets bone and kidneys by raising blood calcium

located in thymus gland; targets lymphatic tissue by stimulating the production of T-cells
Insulin
located in the pancreas; targets the liver, muscles, and adipose tissue by decreases blood glucose
Glucagon
located in the pancreas; targets the liver by increasing blood glucose
GHIH aka growth hormone IH (somatostatin)
located in the pancreas; inhibits the secretin of insulin and glucagon
Epinephrine and norephinerine
located in the adrenal medulla; targets heart, blood vessels, liver, and lungs by increases heart rate and increasing blood sugar (fight or flight response)
Mineralcorticoids
located in the adrenal cortex; target the kidneys by increasing the retention of Na+ and excretion of K+
Glucocorticoids
located in the adrenal cortex; targets most tissues as its released in response to long-term stressors, increases blood glucose (but not as quickly as glucagon)

located in the GI tract; targets the pancreas and liver by stimulating the release of digestive enzymes and bile
Erythropoietin
located in the kidneys; targets the bone marrow by stimulating the production of RBCs
Calcitriol
located in the kidneys; targets the intestines by increasing the reabsorption of Ca2+
