The origin of the parathyroid gland [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
It has long been held that the parathyroid glands and parathyroid hormone evolved with the emergence of the tetrapods, reflecting a need for new controls on calcium homeostasis in terrestrial, rather than aquatic, environments. Developmentally, the parathyroid gland is derived from the pharyngeal pouch endoderm, and studies in mice have ...

Embryology of the Parathyroid Glands [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2018
The parathyroid glands are essential for regulating calcium homeostasis in the body. The genetic programs that control parathyroid fate specification, morphogenesis, differentiation, and survival are only beginning to be delineated, but are all centered around a key transcription factor, GCM2.

Experience of application the 99mTc-MIBI scintigraphy for preoperative visualization of parathyroid glands in patients with gyperparathyrosis

open access: yesActa Medica Leopoliensia, 2019
Aim. The aim of our study was to explore the possibilities of scintigraphy with 99mTc-MIBI for diagnosis of parathyroid glands disorders and advantages of SPECT/CT technology with 99mTc-MIBI for ectopic glands. Material and Methods. The study involved

Persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism caused by parathyromatosis and supernumerary parathyroid glands in a patient on haemodialysis

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2020
Background Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common high-risk factor for mortality in end-stage renal disease, and parathyromatosis and supernumerary parathyroid glands are very rare causes of persistent SHPT.

Indocyanine green angiography-guided thyroidectomy versus conventional thyroidectomy for preserving parathyroid function: study protocol for a randomized single-blind controlled trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionAngiography with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence performed before thyroidectomy would allow identification of the vascularization of parathyroid glands, maximizing efforts for preserving functioning glands intraoperatively. The rationale

Efficacy of Ultrasound-guided Radiofrequency Ablation of Parathyroid Hyperplasia: Single Session vs. Two-Session for Effect on Hypocalcemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To evaluate safety and efficacy of one- vs. two-session radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of parathyroid hyperplasia for patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and to compare the outcome of both methods on hypocalcemia.

Intraoperative Near-Infrared Autofluorescence and Indocyanine Green Imaging to Identify Parathyroid Glands: A Comparison

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2019
Objective. To investigate the feasibility of near-infrared autofluorescence (AF) and indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence to identify parathyroid glands intraoperatively. Methods.

Identification of signaling pathways in early mammary gland development by mouse genetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The mammary gland develops as an appendage of the ectoderm. The prenatal stage of mammary development is hormone independent and is regulated by sequential and reciprocal signaling between the epithelium and the mesenchyme.

The relationship between total mass and blood supply of parathyroid glands and their secretion of parathyroid hormone in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Characteristics of parathyroid glands usually determined by ultrasonography such as its total weight or volume might be a good indicator for the induction or suppression of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion from these glands.
