Question

which of the following is not a hypothalamic hormone?
multiple choice
somatostatin
luteinizing hormone (lh)
thyrotropin - releasing hormone (trh)
prolactin - inhibiting hormone (pih)
antidiuretic hormone (adh)

Explanation:

Somatostatin is a hypothalamic hormone that inhibits growth hormone release. Thyrotropin - releasing hormone (TRH) is a hypothalamic hormone that stimulates the release of thyroid - stimulating hormone. Prolactin - inhibiting hormone (PIH, also known as dopamine) is a hypothalamic hormone that inhibits prolactin release. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH, also known as vasopressin) is synthesized in the hypothalamus. Luteinizing hormone (LH) is produced by the anterior pituitary gland, not the hypothalamus.

Answer:

Luteinizing hormone (LH)
