EpCAM Is a Surface Marker for Enriching Anterior Pituitary Cells From Human Hypothalamic-Pituitary Organoids [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Human stem cell-derived organoid culture enables the in vitro analysis of the cellular function in three-dimensional aggregates mimicking native organs, and also provides a valuable source of specific cell types in the human body.

An Exploration of Non-Coding RNAs in Extracellular Vesicles Delivered by Swine Anterior Pituitary [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Extracellular vesicles are lipid bilayer-delimited particles carrying proteins, lipids, and small RNAs. Previous studies have demonstrated that they had regulatory functions both physiologically and pathologically. However, information remains inadequate

Effect of enhanced plane of nutrition in early life on the transcriptome and proteome of the anterior pituitary gland in Angus heifer calves [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Enhanced nutrition during the early calfhood period has been shown to lead to earlier pubertal development in heifer calves. This is of interest as earlier pubertal onset can subsequently facilitate earlier calving which can economically ...

Ultrastructural characteristics of the anterior pituitary gland of cattle in the definitive period of postnatal ontogenesis [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 Today much attention is paid to the study of the pituitary ultrastructure of laboratory animals and humans. But there is not enough available literature to study the most important organ of internal secretion of productive animal.

Antiapoptotic factor humanin is expressed in normal and tumoral pituitary cells and protects them from TNF-α-induced apoptosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Humanin (HN) is a 24-amino acid peptide with cytoprotective action in several cell types such as neurons and testicular germ cells. Rattin (HNr), a homologous peptide of HN expressed in several adult rat tissues, also has antiapoptotic action.

Regulation of Prolactin Release at the End Stage of Chicken Embryogenesis
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2022 Difference of onset of increase of PRL content in the anterior pituitary gland and plasma PRL concentration during the late stage of chicken embryogenesis is well known. To investigate the disagreement, changes in PRL content and PRL mRNA levels, and the
