Genetic regulation of pituitary gland development in human and mouse

, 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 ...

The Role of Adipokines in the Control of Pituitary Functions

Animals
The pituitary gland is a key endocrine gland in all classes of vertebrates, including mammals. The pituitary gland is an important component of hypothalamus–pituitary–target organ hormonal regulatory axes and forms a functional link between the nervous ...

Assessment of the role of intracranial hypertension and stress on hippocampal cell apoptosis and hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction after TBI

Scientific Reports, 2017
In recent years, hypopituitarism caused by traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been explored in many clinical studies; however, few studies have focused on intracranial hypertension and stress caused by TBI. In this study, an intracranial hypertension model,

THE PITUITARY GLAND IN EPILEPTICS [PDF]

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1914
It seems probable that the time is past when we can group as due to a single cause or group of causes the numerous nosological types which in the past we called epilepsy, but which to-day we call the epilepsies, or epileptic syndromes. Our efforts, if they are to be ultimately profitable, must now be directed to the clinical study of the disease and to
