The endocrine system coordinates whole body cellular function and maintains homeostasis. Alcohol impacts the integrity of endocrine regulation at multiple sites, contributing to risk for comorbidities. Some of the alcohol‐mediated pathophysiological effects on the endocrine system include alterations in receptor expression and responsiveness, protein ...

A Non-Secreting Pituitary Adenoma That Changed to a Prolactinoma
Pituitary adenomas (PAs) are the third most common brain tumors in adults right after meningiomas and gliomas. Taking into account their hormonal activity in vivo, they can be divided in functioning PAs, which secrete hormones, and nonfunctioning ...

Long term outcomes of pituitary adenomas in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1: a nationwide study
IntroductionHistorically, Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1)-related pituitary adenomas (PAs) were considered more aggressive and treatment-resistant than sporadic PAs. However, recent studies suggest similarities in their behavior.

miR‐221/222 Facilitate Pituitary Adenoma Progression Via PHACTR4 Downregulation
Most of pituitary adenomas are biologically benign, but some grow local‐invasively and can invade important adjacent tissues, resulting in clinical symptoms such as hormone secretion disorders and visual field defects. MicroRNA‐221/222 (miR‐221/222) is tandemly encoded on the X chromosome in humans, mice and rats, and is highly conserved in vertebrates
