Society for Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation of Androgen Excess in Women
Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Context Androgen excess is common in women and refers to clinical or biochemical evidence of elevated androgenic steroids such as testosterone. It is associated with underlying polycystic ovary syndrome in the majority of cases. However severe androgen excess is less common and may indicate the presence of underlying adrenal or ovarian ...

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Metformin decreases elevated levels of pituitary hormones. Little is known about the association between the reproductive axis and hormonal effects of this drug. The purpose of our study was to investigate whether activity of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis determines metformin action on prolactin levels in men with prolactin

Pituitary calcification masquerading as pituitary apoplexy
Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013 Pituitary calcification occurs commonly in lactotroph or somatotroph adenoma but rare in chomophobe or gonadotroph adenoma. On imaging, it can mimic hemorrhage, hence may masquerade pituitary apoplexy if patient present with neurological manifestations ...

Magmas overexpression inhibits staurosporine induced apoptosis in rat pituitary adenoma cell lines. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Magmas is a nuclear gene that encodes for the mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase subunit Tim16. Magmas is overexpressed in the majority of human pituitary adenomas and in a mouse ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma cell line.
