Pineal cyst-related sleep disorders – a narrative review

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2007
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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]

open access: yesArchives of Internal Medicine, 1918
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
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

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Agricultural science, 2021
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]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
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]

open access: yes, 2003
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,

Comparison of Three Methods for the Estimation of Pineal Gland Volume Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2012
Pineal gland is a very important neuroendocrine organ with many physiological functions such as regulating circadian rhythm. Radiologically, the pineal gland volume is clinically important because it is usually difficult to distinguish small pineal ...

Melatonin receptor expression in the zebra finch brain and peripheral tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The circadian endocrine hormone melatonin plays a significant role in many physiological processes such as modulating sleep/wake cycle and oxidative stress.
