The postoperative cortisol stress response following transsphenoidal pituitary surgery: a potential screening method for assessing preserved pituitary function

open access: yes, 2014
The ability to reliably identify patients with new hypocortisolemia acutely following pituitary surgery is critical. We aimed to quantify the postoperative cortisol stress response following selective transsphenoidal adenomectomy, as a marker for ...

Genetic regulation of pituitary gland development in human and mouse

open access: yes, 2009
Normal hypothalamopituitary development is closely related to that of the forebrain and is dependent upon a complex genetic cascade of transcription factors and signaling molecules that may be either intrinsic or extrinsic to the developing Rathke’s ...

Effects of loperamide on the human hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis in vivo and in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Loperamide, an opiate agonist of high specificity for p-receptors, was recently reported to suppress ACTH and cortisol levels in normal subjects, but not in patients with proven ACTH-dependent Cushing’s disease. However, there is little information on

Hypercoagulability and Risk of Venous Thromboembolic Events in Endogenous Cushing's Syndrome: A Systematic Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Background: Hypercortisolism has been implicated in the development of venous thromboembolic events (VTE). We aimed to characterize VTE risk in endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) patients, compare that risk to other pathologies, and determine if there ...

An autocrine role for pituitary GABA: Activation of GABA-B receptors and regulation of growth hormone levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
There is increasing evidence suggesting that the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a local factor involved in the regulation of endocrine organs.

Aromatase cytochrome P450 enzyme expression in human pituitary

open access: yes, 2008
Aromatase (P450AROM) converts testosterone to estrogen. This conversion could be important in normal physiology and estradiol-induced tumorigenesis in human pituitary.

Delayed postoperative epistaxis from the posterior lateral nasal branch of the sphenopalatine artery after endoscopic endonasal approach: Case report

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2014
Postoperative delayed epistaxis is a rare but serious complication following endoscopic endonasal surgery for pituitary adenoma. It usually originates in the septal branch of the sphenopalatine artery (SPA), whereas we experienced a case of postoperative

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Controlled Study of Pre‐ and Postoperative Headache in Patients with Sellar Masses (HEADs‐uP Study)

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism
Introduction Sellar masses are common intracranial neoplasms. Their clinical manifestations vary widely and include headache. We aimed to determine whether the prevalence and characteristics of headache in patients with sellar tumours differ from the ...
