Neonatal Network, 2000
The pineal gland is located posterior to the midbrain and is the site of melatonin production. Research on pineal gland function in neonates is very limited. This article will discuss pineal gland development and the possible relationship between melatonin production and sudden infant death syndrome.

Journal of Neural Transmission, 1980
The activity of ornithine decarboxylase was assayed in several organs (thymus, testes, prostate gland, liver, kidneys, adenohypophysis, anterior hypothalamus, and adrenals) taken from adult male rats killed at seven day interval up to six weeks after pinealectomy.

Pineal Gland Tumor Microenvironment
2020A wide and heterogeneous variety of tumors develop from the pineal gland. Pineal parenchymal tumors, germ cell tumors, and glial tumors represent most of them. The molecular profiles and tumor microenvironment play a key role in the development and progression of pineal gland tumors. Consequently, they represent important factors that may determine the

Until ten years ago biologists had almost no information about the function of the pineal body, though they supected that it was not that assigned to it by Descartes. It was often stated to be a mere vestige.

Chronobiology International, 2006
The pineal gland plays a key role in the control of the daily and seasonal rhythms in most vertebrate species. In mammals, rhythmic melatonin (MT) release from the pineal gland is controlled by the suprachiasmatic nucleus via the sympathetic nervous system.

Comparative Physiology: Pineal Gland
Annual Review of Physiology, 1973Literature on the endocrinologic function of the pineal gland is reviewed. The pineal gland appears to have an inhibitory effect on gonadtoropin release. It is possible since no hypothalamic inhibiting factors have been indentified with the control of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone synthesis and release by the anterior ...

Pineal gland, perennial puzzle
Journal of the History of the Neurosciences, 1995Since antiquity this tiny intracranial appendicular organ has aroused sexual connotations and denials. Controversial and enigmatic, it played a significant part in the development of endocrinology and even neurosurgery. What was its histology, what was its role as a gland so intimately attached to the brain?

The pineal gland is attached to the posterior roof of the third ventricle between the posterior and the habenular commissures, and between the pineal and suprapineal recesses. It develops at the beginning of the second month of gestation as an evagination of the diencephalic roof.
