Vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone (ADH), is produced by the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland, and it signals the kidneys to control water balance by increasing water reabsorption in the kidneys. ACTH (B) signals the adrenal glands to release cortisol, TRH (C) signals the pituitary gland to release thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and somatostatin (D) inhibits the release of growth hormone and insulin.
