Glucagon â Glucagon is a hormone involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Produced by the pancreas, it is released when the glucose level in the blood is low (hypoglycemia), causing the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose and release it into the bloodstream. Gonads â A gonad is an organ that makes gametes (sperm and egg cells).
Some of the signals which trigger the release of hormones include: Hormones from other endocrine glands - Most hormones are released as a result of another hormone being released. For example, thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) triggers the release of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which, in turn, triggers the release of thyroxine from the thyroid gland. Blood composition - For example, insulin is released by the pancreatic beta cells in response to a rise in blood sugar after a meal.
