Effect of hypothalamic neuropeptides on corticotrophin release from quarters of rat anterior pituitary gland in vitro.

Journal of Endocrinology, 1984
The effect of six hypothalamic peptides on the basal release of ACTH and that induced by arginine vasopressin (AVP) or by ovine corticotrophin releasing factor (oCRF) from fragments of the rat anterior pituitary gland incubated in vitro was investigated.

Anterior Pituitary — Six Glands and One

New England Journal of Medicine, 1972
Though anatomically associated in a single structure, the anterior pituitary is made up of at least six different secretory types of cells, all capable of functioning independently of one another.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND ON PROTEIN METABOLISM

, 1939
IT is NOW well established that the anterior pituitary gland exerts a pro-found influence on protein metabolism (1). This may be exemplified by the fact that extracts of this gland when administered to normal animals (dog and rat), produce a diminution ...

Estrogen-induced decrease of glucocorticoid receptor messenger ribonucleic acid concentration in rat anterior pituitary gland.

Molecular Endocrinology, 1987
Using Northern blots and hybridization techniques, we have identified an approximately 6.5 kilobase glucocorticoid receptor mRNA species in rat anterior pituitary gland.

Characterization of Neurophysin in the Anterior Pituitary Gland of Sheep

Neuroendocrinology, 1988
Portions of sheep anterior pituitary lobe tissue were extracted under acid conditions and assayed for the two neurophysins (oN-III and oN-I/II) by radioimmunoassay. In all tissues examined, oN-III and oN-I/II immunoreactivities were detected. Using a combination of isoelectric focusing and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the neurophysins of the ...

The Anterior Pituitary Gland

1975
The anterior pituitary gland (adenohypophysis) influences a variety of biologic processes through the secretion and release of polypeptide and glycoprotein hormones (Harris and Donovan, 1966; McCann and Porter, 1969). Body growth is regulated through the synthesis and release of growth hormone (somatotropic hormone, STH), while the structure and ...

The anterior pituitary gland: Lessons from livestock

Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 2005
There has been extensive research of the anterior pituitary gland of livestock and poultry due to the economic (agricultural) importance of physiological processes controlled by it including reproduction, growth, lactation and stress. Moreover, farm animals can be biomedical models or useful in evolutionary/ecological research.

Control of Ovulation by the Anterior Pituitary Gland

1972
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses control of ovulation by the anterior pituitary gland. Arguments are brought forward in the chapter pointing to the participation of structures situated outside the preoptic area and the hypothalamus in spontaneous ovulation.

Double tumors of anterior and posterior pituitary gland

Acta Neuropathologica, 1981
Double tumors were found in the anterior and posterior lobes of pituitary gland at autopsy in a patient who presented with progressive deterioration of mental status. The chromophobe adenoma of anterior lobe consisted of a mixture of non-immunoreactive hormone containing cells and a few prolactin (PRL) and growth hormone (GH) cells in the mid portion ...

Hormone secretion of the anterior pituitary gland after physical interruption of all nervous pathways to the hypophysiotrophic area.

Endocrinology, 1965
Previous studies, in which anterior pituitary tissue was transplanted into the hypothalamus, have shown that only the medial basal hypothalamus, the hypophysiotrophic area (HTA), is capable of maintaining the structure and function of the adenohypophysis.
