Pituitary tumor-transforming gene expression is a prognostic marker for tumor recurrence in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck [PDF]
Background The proto-oncogene pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG) has been shown to be abundantly overexpressed in a large variety of neoplasms likely promoting neo-vascularization and tumor invasiveness.

Tumors of the pituitary gland make up about 10% of all neoplasms of the brain, mainly represented by adenomas. A feature of a larger number of adenomas is the symptoms of hypersecretion of the pituitary hormones, which leads to typical changes

Diagnosis and Treatment of Pituitary Adenomas
Pituitary adenomas are among the most common primary intracranial tumours. They are predominantly benign and account for 10–15 % of all intracranial neoplasms. These tumours are divided into two subgroups: macroadenomas (> 1 cm) and microadenomas (<

Pituitary adenoma or neuroendocrine tumour: the need for an integrated prognostic classification
This Perspective presents the outcomes of an interdisciplinary international workshop that addressed the implications of the WHO classification change of pituitary adenoma to neuroendocrine tumours. The authors propose that a comprehensive classification

Vascular endothelial growth factor production and regulation in rodent and human pituitary tumor cells in vitro [PDF]
Angiogenesis, the formation of a new blood supply, is an essential step in tumorigenesis. Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to be a very potent angiogenic factor in most solid tumors, little is known about its production and ...
