Expression of Prolactin Receptor mRNA in Lactotrophs and Somatotrophs of the Chicken Anterior Pituitary Gland

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2018
Prolactin (PRL) is a hormone mainly secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. In birds, PRL exerts a variety of physiological functions in target tissues expressing the PRL receptor (PRLR).

Pituitary hyposignal characteristic of hemochromatosis on MRI

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
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 ...

Transcriptional profiling and pathway analysis reveal differences in pituitary gland function, morphology, and vascularization in chickens genetically selected for high or low body weight

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Though intensive genetic selection has led to extraordinary advances in growth rate and feed efficiency in production of meat-type chickens, endocrine processes controlling these traits are still poorly understood. The anterior pituitary gland

Magnetic resonance imaging grading of pituitary macroadenoma – SIPAP classification revisited

European Journal of Radiology Open, 2023
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is regarded as the modality of choice in diagnosis of pituitary macroadenomas. Since surgery is the first line therapy for all pituitary adenomas, simple and reproducible MRI classification based on major ...

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high magnitude stress.

Modified expanded endonasal approach for the large skull based giant pituitary adenoma

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2020
Giant pituitary adenomas are among the most challenging issues of neurosurgery. During last decades, extended endoscopic endonasal approach has become more preferable than transcranial route, due to several advantages.

Intrapituitary Regulatory System of Proliferation of Mammotrophs in the Pituitary Gland [PDF]

, 2004
Anterior pituitary cells produce growth factors plus cytokines and their receptors. Although some of these pituitary growth factors and cytokines are known to be involved in the control of cell differentiation, proliferation and hormone production in the
