N-terminal prolactin-derived fragments, vasoinhibins, are proapoptoptic and antiproliferative in the anterior pituitary.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The anterior pituitary is under a constant cell turnover modulated by gonadal steroids. In the rat, an increase in the rate of apoptosis occurs at proestrus whereas a peak of proliferation takes place at estrus. At proestrus, concomitant with the maximum

S100β-Positive Cells of Mesenchymal Origin Reside in the Anterior Lobe of the Embryonic Pituitary Gland. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The anterior and intermediate lobes of the pituitary gland develop through invagination of the oral ectoderm and as they are endocrine tissues, they participate in the maintenance of vital functions via the synthesis and secretion of numerous hormones ...

Attenuation of gadolinium enhancement in pituitary gland on magnetic resonance imaging of patients with pediatric growth hormone deficiency

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging, 2023
Background Although it is generally thought that disturbance of perfusion in the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland leads to complete or partial hypopituitarism, the gadolinium (Gd) enhancement findings on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of patients ...

Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Internal Medicine, 2021
Panhypopituitarism occurs as a result of the insufficiency of all hormones produced in the anterior pituitary gland. Pituitary Stalk Interruption Syndrome (PSIS) is a rare congenital syndrome leading to hypopituitarism.

Automated eye disease classification method from anterior eye image using anatomical structure focused image classification technique [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of SPIE Medical Imaging 2020: Computer-Aided Diagnosis, Vol.11314, 1131446, 2020
This paper presents an automated classification method of infective and non-infective diseases from anterior eye images. Treatments for cases of infective and non-infective diseases are different. Distinguishing them from anterior eye images is important to decide a treatment plan. Ophthalmologists distinguish them empirically.

Lymphocytic infundibuloneurohypophysitis: A rare case report

open access: yesMAMC Journal of Medical Sciences, 2015
Lymphocytic hypophysitis is a neuroendocrine disorder characterized by autoimmune infiammation of the pituitary gland with various degrees of pituitary dysfunction. Coexistence of other autoimmune conditions is reported in the vast majority of cases. The

Stability analysis of a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis model with inclusion of glucocorticoid receptor and memory [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings 1798, 020111, 2017, 2016
This paper analyzes a four-dimensional model of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis that includes the influence of the glucocorticoid receptor in the pituitary. Due to the spatial separation between the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands, distributed time delays are introduced in the mathematical model.

Colocalization of GPR120 and anterior pituitary hormone-producing cells in female Japanese Black cattle

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2019
Negative energy balance in domestic animals suppresses their reproductive function. These animals commonly use long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) from adipocytes as an energy source under states of malnutrition.
