Immune-mediated denervation of the pineal gland underlies sleep disturbance in cardiac disease
Science, 2023Disruption of the physiologic sleep-wake cycle and low melatonin levels frequently accompany cardiac disease, yet the underlying mechanism has remained enigmatic. Immunostaining of sympathetic axons in optically cleared pineal glands from humans and mice

Pineal Gland & Papillary Tumor on Pineal Gland
, 2021The pineal organ, conarium, or epiphysis cerebri, may be a little endocrine organ within the brain of most vertebrates. The pineal organ produces melatonin, a serotonin-derived hormone which tweaks rest designs in both circadian and regular cycles.

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.

Metastases to the pineal gland [PDF]
We identified 10 patients with symptomatic metastases to the pineal gland. We present the clinical and radiographic findings in this syndrome. Leptomeningeal metastases occur frequently and are a poor prognostic factor. In all cases, the primary cancer was clinically silent, either in remission (six cases) or previously undiagnosed (four cases). Hence,

The pineal gland and aldosterone
American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1960It has recently been suggested that the canine pineal gland secretes a hormone which stimulates the adrenal cortex to release aldosterone. The following experiments were undertaken to determine what effect pinealectomy or administration of bovine pineal extracts has on certain physiologic variables associated with aldosterone activity in rats: a) the ...

Endocrinology, 2018
This chapter describes the pineal gland’s structure, related hormones, and physiology. The pineal gland (epiphysis cerebri) is a small (100–150 mg in humans), unpaired central structure.

Midline and off-midline infratentorial supracerebellar approaches to the pineal gland.
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2016OBJECTIVE A common approach to lesions of the pineal region is along the midline below the torcula. However, reports of how shifting the approach off midline affects the surgical exposure and relationships between the tributaries of the vein of Galen are

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.
