Pineal cyst-related sleep disorders – a narrative review
The pineal gland is an endocrine gland, which is responsible for the human circadian rhythm, through the regulation of its hormone – melatonin. The most common pathology of a pineal gland is pineal cyst – its population incidence is estimated as 1-23 ...

Melatonin synthesis in the human pineal gland [PDF]
Poster presentation: The mammalian pineal organ is a peripheral oscillator, depending on afferent information from the so-called master clock in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of the hypothalamus.

MRI-based assessment of the pineal gland in a large population of children aged 0-5 years and comparison with pineoblastoma: part I, the solid gland. [PDF]
Differentiation between normal solid (non-cystic) pineal glands and pineal pathologies on brain MRI is difficult. The aim of this study was to assess the size of the solid pineal gland in children (0-5 years) and compare the findings with published ...

CALCIFICATION IN THE PINEAL GLAND [PDF]
Pathologic as well as roentgenologic literature on calcification of the pineal gland is very scarce. Schueller,1apparently, was the first to demonstrate concretions in the gland radiographically, and the only one to verify his roentgen-ray findings by necropsy.

Pineal Gland Metastasis From Poorly Differentiated Carcinoma of Unknown Primary Origin
Pineal metastasis is an exceedingly rare finding in patients with systemic malignancies. Such lesions are typically the manifestation of a primary lung cancer; nonetheless, a variety of malignancies have been reported to disseminate to the pineal gland ...

ULTRASTRUCTURE OF PINEAL GLAND TUMOR IN WHITE RAT
Tumors of pineal gland are very rare brain lesion in the rats and other species like humans. Neoplasms of pineal gland should be included in the possible differential diagnosis list for brain tumor, This type happened when the tumor is sited in the ...

Genetically Blocking the Zebrafish Pineal Clock Affects Circadian Behavior. [PDF]
The master circadian clock in fish has been considered to reside in the pineal gland. This dogma is challenged, however, by the finding that most zebrafish tissues contain molecular clocks that are directly reset by light.

p38 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Regulates Oscillation of Chick Pineal Circadian Clock [PDF]
Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 are members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, and in some cases these kinases serve for closely related cellular functions within a cell. In a wide range of animal clock structures,
