Biosynthesis and biological action of pineal allopregnanolone
The pineal gland transduces photoperiodic changes to the neuroendocrine system by rhythmic secretion of melatonin. We recently provided new evidence that the pineal gland is a major neurosteroidogenic organ and actively produces a variety of ...

Macro-microscopical aspects of the buffalo (Bubalus bubalis Linnaeus, 1758) pineal gland [PDF]
Gross and microscopical aspects of the buffalo pineal gland were described in seasonal parturition animals, since this gland is responsible for melatonin secretion which acts upon the hypothalamus-hypophysis reproductive axis feedback system.

Profiling Temporal Changes of the Pineal Transcriptomes at Single Cell Level Upon Neonatal HIBD
Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) often results in various neurological deficits. Among them, a common, yet often neglected, symptom is circadian rhythm disorders. Previous studies revealed that the occurrence of cysts in the pineal gland, an

Neuroimaging in emergency: a review of possible role of pineal gland disease.
The pineal gland can be involved in a variety of neoplastic and congenital masses and tumors. Pineal gland neoplasms occur more frequently in children, accounting for 3-8% of intracranial tumors in the pediatric population. Pineal cysts are small lesions
