The Anterior Pituitary and Hypothalamus
2004Abstract The core of the neuroendocrine system is represented by the hypothalamic-pituitary complex. The hypothalamus is composed of a diversity of neurosecretory cells arranged in groups, which secrete their products either into the portal blood system that connects the hypothalamus to the adenohypophysis (see below) or directly into ...

Growth factors and the anterior pituitary
Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1991Normal growth and secretion in the pituitary gland are dependent upon the co-ordinated action of a large number of extracellular growth factors, neuropeptides and peripheral hormones acting on their respective cellular receptors and via complex intracellular signalling pathways.

Tumors of the Anterior Pituitary
1986In no other group of intracranial tumors have the change in classification and the progress in identification of their nature been so striking as in the pituitary adenomas. In their excellent book on The Pituitary Adenoma POST et al. (1980) enumerate the following seven developments that have combined to bring about such radical progress : 1 ...

Control of Anterior Pituitary Function
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1978Current theory of control of anterior pituitary function was foreshadowed by two clinical observations. In 1927, Worster-Drought et al, after describing a case of probable craniopharyngioma, suggested that "the hypothalamic nuclei would appear to control, as it were, the function of the different pituitary lobes." In the 1930s clinicians at the Mayo ...

Neurosecretion and anterior pituitary in the dog
Experientia, 1954Die Ablagerung von neurosekretorischem Material in der unmittelbaren Umgebung von Blutgefassen im Hypophysenstiel, die mit Gefassen des Vorderlappens in Verbindung stehen, wird beim Hund beschrieben. Aus diesem Befund wird auf die Moglichkeit geeshlossen, dass die von den Zellen der Nuclei supraopticus und paraventricularis produzierte ...
