Background Pediatric brain cancer survivors often experience hypothalamic–pituitary dysfunction due to cranial irradiation and chemotherapy. While hormone deficiencies have been studied, the changes in pituitary size and shape on long‐term MRI and their relationship to endocrine dysfunction remain under‐explored.

Conduct a study on the morpho-functional features of the pineal gland at the simulation laundry lighting and acute stress. It was determined that in the peripheral regions of the pineal gland conditions develop functional activity, as indicated by ...

A wide variety of biochemical, physiological, and molecular processes are known to have daily rhythms driven by an endogenous circadian clock. While extensive research has greatly improved our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that constitute the

The role of the pineal gland in seasonality
The life time reproductive performance of 2 flocks of Merino crossbred ewes pinealectomized at 7-60 days of age, and maintained in South Australia did not differ from that of sham-operated control animals kept in the same flocks. The pineal gland is therefore not a major determinant of reproductive success, but a role for the pineal in adjusting ...

Hypotheses in light detection by vertebrate ancient opsin in the bird brain
Abstract Extra‐retinal photoreception is common across fish and avian species. In birds, the hypothalamus contains non‐visual photoreceptors that detect light and regulate multiple endocrine systems. To date, light‐dependent control of seasonal reproduction is one of the most well‐studied systems that require deep brain photoreception.

Proposal for a New Classification of Rare Cancers Adopting Updated Histological Tumor Types
We propose a new rare cancer classification system using the updated International Classification of Diseases for Oncology 3.2 coding system and the World Health Organization Classification of Tumors 5th edition. This list could serve as a diagnostic classifier to reliably distinguish various rare cancers for clinical applications.

EVOLUTION OF THE CIRCADIAN CLOCK IN EXTREME ENVIRONMENT: LESSONS FROM CAVEFISH. [PDF]
Evolution has been strongly influenced by the daily cycles of temperature and light imposed by the rotation of the Earth. Fascinating demonstrations of this are seen in extreme environments such as caves where some animals have remained completely ...

The transcription factor STAT3 exhibits circadian rhythmicity in SCN and cortical primary cells but not in C6 glioblastoma cells. Its silencing affects clock gene expression in these cells and reduces the amplitude of PER2‐driven rhythmicity in organotypic SCN cultures.
