Cells of the anterior pituitary
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2006The anterior pituitary is made up of a number of cell types that are essential for such physiological processes as growth, development, homeostasis, metabolism, and reproduction. These include the hormonal cells corticotropes, thyrotropes, gonadotropes, somatotropes, lactotropes and a small population of mammosomatotropes, together with a non-hormonal ...

Selenium in the anterior pituitary
Science of The Total Environment, 1985Selenium accumulated in the anterior pituitary of the rat after intraperitoneal injection of NA2Se03. Selenium is bound to a cation (most likely Zn++) and is ultrastructurally located in lysosomes and secretory granules.

The anterior pituitary in hemochromatosis
Endocrine Pathology, 1996Pituitary changes in the case of a 69-year-old man with hemochromatosis are reported. The patient died of complications of hepatocellular carcinoma. The pituitary removed at autopsy was studied by histology, histochemistry, immunocytochemistry, electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction.

Hormones of the Anterior Pituitary Body
New England Journal of Medicine, 1965Pituitary Peptides and Fat Mobilization The interrelation of fat mobilization and the pituitary gland has a long history beginning with the observation that hypophysectomy reduces the mobilization ...

Postgraduate Medicine, 1961
The adenohypophyseal hormones influence general body growth and carbohydrate metabolism and exercise direct control on the functions of the adrenal cortex, the thyroid and the gonads. The six known hormones of the anterior pituitary are classified as metabolic and gonadotropic.In describing the biologic properties and physicochemical characteristics of

Anterior pituitary and pancreas
American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1948Based on a survery of the literature and his own publications the author maintains that hypo- as well as hyperpituitarism do not cause simple micro- or macrosplanchnia but a characteristic pattern of dystrophy in various organs and tissues. The islet organ shows a hypertrophic tendency in hypo-, atrophic in hyperpituitarism.

Benzodiazepines and anterior pituitary function
Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2002Benzodiazepines (BDZ) are one of the most prescribed classes of drugs because of their marked anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, muscle relaxant and hypnotic effects. The pharmacological actions of BDZ depend on the activation of 2 specific receptors. The central BDZ receptor, present in several areas of the central nervous system (CNS), is a component of the

The human anterior pituitary gland contains at least five distinct hormone-producing cell populations, expressing six different hormones (Table 1): pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH).

Ghrelin and Anterior Pituitary Function
2010Ghrelin, a 28-amino-acid octanoylated peptide predominantly produced by the stomach, was discovered to be the natural ligand of the type 1a GH secretagogue receptor. Thus, it was considered as a natural GH secretagogue (GHS) additional to GHRH, although later on ghrelin has mostly been considered a major orexigenic factor.
