Combined pituitary hormone deficiency - lessons from the murine models [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 1999
The molecular pathogenesis of some forms of combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD, impaired production of growth hormone (GH) and one or more of the other five pituitary hormones) was established with the discovery of mutations in the pituitary transcription factor, POU1F1 (the human homologue of mouse Pit1) several years ago (1).

Intracranial germinoma combined with parathyroid adenoma in a male pediatric patient: A case report

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
Cases of young patients combined with intracranial germinoma and parathyroid adenoma are extremely rare. A 6.25-year-old boy was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency at his first visit and was then treated with growth hormone substitution.

Normal Growth despite Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency

open access: yesHormone Research in Paediatrics, 2019
Background: The paradox of normal growth despite a lack of growth hormone (GH) is an unexplained phenomenon described in some pathological (sellar, suprasellar, and hypothalamic disorders) and overgrowth syndromes. It has been suggested that the paradoxical growth is due to other GH variants, GH-like moieties, prolactin, insulin, insulin-like growth ...

Genetic and non-genetic causes of Isolated Growth Hormone Deficiency and Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency: Results of the HYPOPIT study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Hypopituitarism, the deficiency of one or more pituitary hormones, causes stunted growth and severe health problems. Understanding the etiology of pituitary hormone deficiencies is important for anticipation of clinical problems, for genetic counselling ...

Genetics of Combined Pituitary Hormone Deficiency: Roadmap into the Genome Era. [PDF]

open access: yesEndocr Rev, 2016
The genetic basis for combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD) is complex, involving 30 genes in a variety of syndromic and nonsyndromic presentations. Molecular diagnosis of this disorder is valuable for predicting disease progression, avoiding unnecessary surgery, and family planning.

Clinical, Hormonal, and Neuroradiological Characteristics and Therapeutic Outcomes of Prolactinomas in Children and Adolescents at a Single Center

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Background/Purpose: A prolactinoma is the most common pituitary adenoma, but it is relatively rare in childhood and adolescence. There is only limited research about the clinical spectrum, treatment, and outcomes of prolactinomas in childhood and ...

Novel genes and variants associated with congenital pituitary hormone deficiency in the era of next-generation sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD) is not a rare disorder, with a frequency of approximately 1 case per 4,000 live births. However, in most cases, a genetic diagnosis is not available.

A nonsense variant in FGFR1: a rare cause of combined pituitary hormone deficiency

open access: yes, 2020
Objectives: Variants in fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) may either cause isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) or Kallmann syndrome (KS).

CROSS-TALK BETWEEN ENDOCRINE SYSTEM AND OTHER BIOLOGICAL PATHWAYS: PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL IMPLICATIONS IN PAEDIATRIC ENDOCRINOPATHIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Endocrine system exerts relevant effects on multiple organs and tissues. Pleiotropic and redundant functions of circulating hormones are due to the various receptors expressed on multiple target cells.
