Gene expression patterns in anterior pituitary associated with quantitative measure of oestrous behaviour in dairy cows [PDF]
Intensive selection for high milk yield in dairy cows has raised production levels substantially but at the cost of reduced fertility, which manifests in different ways including reduced expression of oestrous behaviour.

The pituitary TGFb1 system as a novel target for the treatment of resistant prolactinomas [PDF]
Prolactinomas are the most frequently observed pituitary adenomas and most of themrespond well to conventional treatment with dopamine agonists (DAs).

An Exploration of Non-Coding RNAs in Extracellular Vesicles Delivered by Swine Anterior Pituitary
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

Estrogens induce expression of membrane-associated estrogen receptor α isoforms in lactotropes. [PDF]
Estrogens are key to anterior pituitary function, stimulating hormone release and controlling cell fate to achieve pituitary dynamic adaptation to changing physiological conditions. In addition to their classical mechanism of action through intracellular

Extended endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach to the suprasellar area: Anatomic considerations - Part I [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Interest in using the extended endonasal transsphenoidal approach for management of suprasellar lesions, with either a microscopic or endoscopic technique, has increased in recent years.

Pituitary hyposignal characteristic of hemochromatosis on MRI
Pituitary haemochromatosis is an endocrine disorder caused by the accumulation of iron due to a lack of absorption during haemochromatosis. The characteristic appearance on MRI is a T2 and T2* hyposignal of the anterior pituitary gland without ...

Intercellular Communication in the Anterior Pituitary* [PDF]
In addition to hypothalamic and feedback inputs, the secretory cells of the anterior pituitary are influenced by the activity of factors secreted within the gland. The list of putative intrapituitary factors has been expanding steadily over the past decade, although until recently much of the work was limited to descriptions of potential interactions ...
