Anterior Pituitary Hormones in CSF

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1979
After the initial report by Linfoot and co-workers in 1970, 1 it has been assumed that an abnormal increase in the concentration of an anterior pituitary hormone in the CSF is indicative of suprasellar extension of the pituitary tumor producing that hormone. The report by Jordan et al in the February issue of theArchives(139:208-211, 1979) and a recent

Sensitivity of anterior pituitary hormones to irradiation

Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2006
Cranial irradiation is used in the management of a diverse group of intracranial pathologies. However, if any part of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis is included in the radiation field, there is a risk of developing neuroendocrine dysfunction. Growth hormone is the most radiosensitive of the anterior pituitary hormones, followed by the gonadotropins ...

Anterior Pituitary Hormones

1997
The human anterior pituitary gland contains at least five distinct hormone-producing cell populations, expressing six different hormones (Table 1): pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH).

GABAergic control of anterior pituitary hormone secretion

Life Sciences, 1982
Anatomical and biochemical studies have identified a hypothalamic tubero-infundibular GABAergic system, which plays a functional role on anterior pituitary hormone secretion. Experimental and clinical evidence support the presence of a dual component in the action of GABA; one mediated via the central nervous system and the other exerted directly at ...

CONCERNING ANTERIOR PITUITARY HORMONES*

Endocrinology, 1933
The data presented here supplement a preliminary statement (1, 2) and a fuller account soon to be published (3) concerning the isolation and physiological actions of an anterior pituitary hormone which is now known as “prolactin.” Competent investigators of the anterior pituitary rightly require very exacting proofs that hormones other than those first

ANTERIOR PITUITARY HORMONE IN URINE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1931
Since the early reported work by Erdheim and Stumme1on the hypertrophy of the anterior hypophysis during pregnancy, subsequent studies have led to the discovery of an important and useful laboratory test for the early and accurate diagnosis of pregnancy.

THE ANTERIOR PITUITARY-LIKE HORMONE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1936
In a previous paper1a preliminary report concerning the effect of pregnancy urine extract2on acne vulgaris was made. This paper comprises a further study of that problem. A review of the literature brings to light several theories regarding the cause of acne but little clinical or experimental evidence in support of them.
