Vasopressin oxytocin prolactin cortisol prolactin inhibitory factor both (c) and (e) above Thyroxine is stored in the thyroid in peptide linkage in thyroglobulin is transported in the blood mostly bound to protein is a derivative of tyrosine a and b above a, b and c above

Explanation / Answer

PIF), dopamine, a substance that inhibits secretion of prolactin by the anterior pituitary gland.
