Pituitary-gonadal control of creatinine metabolism.
The endocrine in general for a considerable period have been known to exert a humoraal action on the body, controlling its functions to a large extent. These actions have been closely investigated and a clear correlation between the ductless glands have been shown. The interrelation and dependency …

Surgical Treatment of Pituitary Adenomas with Hyperprolactinemia
"목적: 고프로락틴혈증은 다양한 원인에 의하여 성선 기능의 저하와 유즙분비를 유발하는 비교적 흔한 질환으로, 가장 중용한 원인인 프로락틴분비선종(Prolactin-secreting adenomas, prolactinomas)은 뇌하수체선종의 약 30%, 기능성 뇌하수체 종양의 50 - 60%를 차지하는 흔한 뇌하수체 종양이다. 일반적인 치료원칙은 호르몬 분비를 억제시킴으로써 고프로락틴혈증에 의해 유발된 성선기능의 저하나 유루증 등의 증상을 완화시키고, 원인이 되는 종양을 제거하거나, 뇌하수체기능을 보존하면서 종양의 재발이나 진행을 …

The experience of low grade and pituitary tumours
… diagnoses each year in the UK, of which 10% are pituitary tumours. People with low grade and pituitary tumours can experience a wide range of physical, psychological and cognitive difficulties. Studies have reported mixed results in regard to the extent and cause of psychological and cognitive …

The role of Men1 in pituitary gland tumourigenesis
Summary The pituitary gland is a key regulator of growth, metabolism and sexual development. The pituitary gland integrates signals from the hypothalamus and from peripheral endocrine glands and responds to changing physiological needs by secreting a series of hormones that regulate the activity of …

Dense Core Vesicle Heterogeneity in Anterior Pituitary Cells
<p>Peptides, which are packaged in dense core vesicles, are an integral part of the function of the endocrine and neurological systems. The dense core vesicles function as an efficient form of peptide storage prior to regulated exocytosis. Two different dense core specific transmembrane proteins …

Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in normal and adenomatous pituitary
… of Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in adult pituitary and in pituitary tumors. Shh is a signaling protein, important in regulating patterning and proliferation in the embryo and the adult. It has a crucial role in pituitary development and Shh deficient mice do not even have a rudimentary …

The neuropsychological effects of pituitary macroadenomas and their treatment
Pituitary adenomas account for roughly 12% of all intracranial tumours and are treated either surgically or medically. Due to the prevalence, there have been many articles focusing on their treatment. Recently, a few studies have been published suggesting a link between pituitary tumours, their …

Studies on the gonadotrophic hormones of pituitary and placental origin
… about the existence nature and number of pituitary gonadotrephins. The era of gonadotrophic studies started when in 1897 Heaps postulated the possible existence of an extra-ovarian factor capable of regulating ovarian activity. His assumption was supported by evidence produced in 1901 by …

Notch signaling and cell cycle inhibitor regulation in pituitary organogenesis
The pituitary is plastic organ whose hormone cell number can fluctuate depending on physiologic need. Alterations in pituitary cell expansion can lead to disorders such as pituitary hyperplasia or tumors, which have a high prevalence in the human population. Precise control of cell cycle …
