Single-cell phenotypic characterization of human pituitary GHomas and non-functioning adenomas based on hormone content and calcium responses to hypothalamic releasing hormones [PDF]
Human pituitary tumors are generally benign adenomas causing considerable morbidity due to excess hormone secretion, hypopituitarism and other tumor mass effects.

Induced spawning of the striped murrel Channa striatus using pituitary extracts, human chorionic gonadotropin, luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue, and ovaprim(r) [PDF]
Striated murrel Channa striatus were injected with natural hormones (pituitary extract and human chorionic gonadotropin) and synthetic hormones (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue and ovaprim).

The adenohypophysis contains five secretory cell types (somatotrophs, lactotrophs, thyrotrophs, corticotrophs, and gonadotrophs), each secreting a different hormone, and controlled by different hypothalamic releasing hormones (HRHs).

From Pituitary Stem Cell Differentiation to Regenerative Medicine
The anterior pituitary gland is comprised of specialized cell-types that produce and secrete polypeptide hormones in response to hypothalamic input and feedback from target organs.

Alterations in hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal/thyroid axes and gonadotropin-releasing hormone in the patients with primary insomnia: a clinical research. [PDF]
The hypothalamus-pituitary-target gland axis is thought to be linked with insomnia, yet there has been a lack of further systematic studies to prove this.

Cloning of the Chicken Pituitary Receptor for Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone [PDF]
Details of the regulation of GH in birds are unclear. In this report, a receptor was cloned from chicken pituitary cDNA with 61% amino acid sequence identity to the human pituitary GHRH receptor. Phylogenies inferred from sequence alignments support that this is the chicken counterpart of the GHRH receptor known in mammals. Northern blotting shows that

Involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and its interaction with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the ontogeny of avian thermoregulation: a review [PDF]
The emergence of thermoregulation in avian species is a complex matter in which neural as well as hormonal processes are involved. In a previous paper, the neural aspects of primary avian thermoregulation were discussed.

Male reproduction is governed by the classical hypothalamo-hypophyseal testicular axis: Hypothalamic gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), pituitary luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and the gonadal steroid, principally ...
