Chromogranin A: From Laboratory to Clinical Aspects of Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]
Background. Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are characterized by having behavior and prognosis that depend upon tumor histology, primary site, staging, and proliferative index.

Circulating Noncoding RNAs in Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors—Two Sides of the Same Coin
Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNET) are common intracranial neoplasms. While in case of hormone secreting tumors pituitary hormone measurements can be used for monitoring the disease, in non-functional tumors there is a need to discover non-invasive

Trophic and neurotrophic factors in human pituitary adenomas (Review) [PDF]
The pituitary gland is an organ that functionally connects the hypothalamus with the peripheral organs. The pituitary gland is an important regulator of body homeostasis during development, stress, and other processes.

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 (<

Stability analysis of a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis model with inclusion of glucocorticoid receptor and memory [PDF]
This paper analyzes a four-dimensional model of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis that includes the influence of the glucocorticoid receptor in the pituitary. Due to the spatial separation between the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands, distributed time delays are introduced in the mathematical model.

A rare cause of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax: Birt-hogg-dube syndrome [PDF]
Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome is an unusual disorder characterized by the triad of cutaneous lesions, renal tumors and lung cysts. In cases with BHD syndrome, the frequency of recurrent pneumothorax is increased due to presence of multiple lung cysts. It

Background Pituitary carcinomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors affecting the adenohypophysis. The hallmark of these lesions is the demonstration of distant metastatic spread. To date, few well-documented cases have been reported in the literature.
