It is an extension of the [[hypothalamus]] and is responsible for the storage and release of hormones produced by the hypothalamus.<br /> <br /> ==Structure==<br /> <br /> The posterior pituitary is composed of the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland and the infundibulum. It is connected to the hypothalamus by the [[hypophyseal stalk]], also known as the infundibular stalk.<br /> <br /> ==Function==<br /> <br /> The primary function of the posterior pituitary is the storage and release of hormones produced by the hypothalamus. These hormones include [[vasopressin]] (also known as antidiuretic hormone or ADH) and [[oxytocin]]. Vasopressin regulates water balance in the body, while oxytocin plays a role in various functions such as childbirth and breastfeeding.<br /> <br /> ==Clinical significance==<br /> <br /> Dysfunction of the posterior pituitary can lead to several medical conditions. These include [[diabetes insipidus]], a condition characterized by excessive thirst and urination, and [[syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone]] (SIADH), a condition characterized by the excessive release of ADH.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> <br /> * [[Anterior pituitary]]<br /> * [[Hypothalamus]]<br /> * [[Pituitary gland]]<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> <br /> &lt;references /&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Endocrine system]]<br /> [[Category:Human brain]]<br /> [[Category:Pituitary gland]]<br /> <br /> {{Endocrine system}}<br /> {{Human brain}}<br /> {{Pituitary gland}}<br /> {{stub}}</div> Prab
