Components of the canonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways are not mis-expressed in pituitary tumors. [PDF]
IntroductionCanonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways are involved in the genesis of multiple tumors; however, their role in pituitary tumorigenesis is mostly unknown.ObjectiveThis study evaluated gene and protein expression of Wnt pathways in pituitary ...

Pituitary tumors are commonly encountered intracranial neoplasms that are invariably benign. Classic oncogene mutations are not encountered in these tumors, and disrupted cell cycle control and growth factor signaling likely contribute to pathogenesis and natural history.

Pituitary tumors in patients with MEN1 syndrome
We briefly review the characteristics of pituitary tumors associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 is an autosomal-dominant disorder most commonly characterized by tumors of the pituitary, parathyroid ...

Role of microRNA in oncogenesis of pituitary tumors and their practical significance [PDF]
Microribonucleic acids (miRNAs) are a class of noncoding RNAs that regulate posttranscriptional gene expression. These molecules are regulators of cell proliferation, metabolism, apoptosis, and differentiation.

Anti-VEGF Therapy in Refractory Pituitary Adenomas and Pituitary Carcinomas: A Review
Most pituitary tumors are considered benign adenomas, and only 0.1%–0.2% of them present metastasis and are defined as pituitary carcinomas (PCs). Refractory pituitary adenomas (PAs) lie between benign adenomas and true malignant PCs and are defined as ...

Experimental Evidence and Clinical Implications of Pituitary Adenoma Stem Cells
Pituitary adenomas, accounting for 15% of diagnosed intracranial neoplasms, are usually benign and pharmacologically and surgically treatable; however, the critical location, mass effects and hormone hypersecretion sustain their significant morbidity ...
