SCP2-mediated cholesterol membrane trafficking promotes the growth of pituitary adenomas via Hedgehog signaling activation

Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2019
Background Metabolic reprogramming is an important characteristic of tumors. In the progression of pituitary adenomas (PA), abnormal glucose metabolism has been confirmed by us before. However, whether cholesterol metabolism is involved in the process of

Vascular endothelial growth factor production and regulation in rodent and human pituitary tumor cells in vitro [PDF]

, 2001
Angiogenesis, the formation of a new blood supply, is an essential step in tumorigenesis. Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to be a very potent angiogenic factor in most solid tumors, little is known about its production and ...

Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]

, 1993
The endocrinological, surgical, and histological findings of patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing's disease were correlated with the pulsatile secretion pattern of ACTH and cortisol and the outcome after transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.
