Background: Pituitary adenomas (PAs) are common intracranial tumors, and their aggressive phenotype exhibits a poor prognosis. We aimed to explore the aggressive feature of PAs and discover novel diagnostic markers. Method: The datasets of GSE260487 and GSE169498, which contained invasive and noninvasive samples, were downloaded from the Gene ...

ABSTRACT Background The overwhelming majority of pituitary tumors consist of pituitary adenomas (PAs), which have recently also been termed pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs). Clinically significant PAs occur in approximately one in every 1000 individuals, while other types of pituitary tumors, such as craniopharyngiomas and pituicytomas, are ...

Visual morbidity in macroprolactinoma: A retrospective cohort study
Abstract Objective The management of visual field damage in patients with macroprolactinomas is a major therapeutic challenge. We aimed to study the visual morbidity associated with macroprolactinoma and its outcomes following medical and surgical treatment. We aimed to identify predictors of visual recovery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed patient'

Phosphorylation of PBK at Thr9 by CDK5 correlates with invasion of prolactinomas
The level of pPBK‐T9 is highly expressed in invasive PitNETs, CDK5 could promote the phosphorylation of PBK‐T9 through the p38 MAPK signaling pathway to promote cell proliferation and EMT progression. we revealed that this signaling axis in PitNETs, CDK5/PBK/p38 MAPK, promoted the tumorigenesis of PitNETs.

Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis
Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a rare, benign inflammatory disorder of the breast that is often underrecognized. The exact etiology and pathophysiology are unknown, but milk stasis is felt to play a role. Classically, this condition is noninfectious, but many cases are noted to be associated with Corynebacterium species.
