Impact of Adiposity and Fat Distribution on the Dynamics of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Rhythms.

Current obesity reports

Roelfsema F, Pereira AM, Veldhuis JD.
PMID: 26626915
Curr Obes Rep. 2014 Dec;3(4):387-95. doi: 10.1007/s13679-014-0118-7.

Obesity impacts many hormonal systems, including pituitary hormones, as well as insulin and leptin. In this review we discuss articles which investigate the influence of obesity on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Different techniques have been used to assess the...

Role of abnormal anterior pituitary hormones-growth hormone and prolactin in active systemic lupus erythematosus.

International journal of clinical and experimental medicine

Zhu X, Xu J, Li S, Huang W, Li F.
PMID: 26770558
Int J Clin Exp Med. 2015 Oct 15;8(10):19223-31. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: The role of anterior pituitary hormones in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remains controversial.AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: We determined the expression levels of human growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), and their receptors in subjects presenting with SLE, and modulation of...

Photoperiodic and circadian bifurcation theories of depression and mania.

F1000Research

Kripke DF, Elliott JA, Welsh DK, Youngstedt SD.
PMID: 26180634
F1000Res. 2015 May 06;4:107. doi: 10.12688/f1000research.6444.1. eCollection 2015.

Seasonal effects on mood have been observed throughout much of human history.  Seasonal changes in animals and plants are largely mediated through the changing photoperiod (i.e., the photophase or duration of daylight).  We review that in mammals, daylight specifically...

Screening for GPR101 defects in pediatric pituitary corticotropinomas.

Endocrine-related cancer

Trivellin G, Correa RR, Batsis M, Faucz FR, Chittiboina P, Bjelobaba I, Larco DO, Quezado M, Daly AF, Stojilkovic SS, Wu TJ, Beckers A, Lodish M, Stratakis CA.
PMID: 26962002
Endocr Relat Cancer. 2016 Jun 01;23(5):357-365. doi: 10.1530/ERC-16-0091.

Cushing disease (CD) in children is caused by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting pituitary adenomas. Germline or somatic mutations in genes such as MEN1, CDKIs, AIP, and USP8 have been identified in pediatric CD, but the genetic defects in a significant...

The Immunophenotype of Pituitary Adenomas.

Endocrine pathology

Lloyd RV, Scheithauer BW, Kovacs K, Roche PC.
PMID: 12114642
Endocr Pathol. 1996;7(2):145-150. doi: 10.1007/BF02739974.

Although the production of pituitary hormones by adenohypophysial tumors has been studied extensively, an examination of the immunophenotype of pituitary adenomas using a broad spectrum of antibodies has not been previously investigated. We studied 23 pituitary adenomas using a...

HGH, PRL, and ACTH Gene Expression in Clinically Nonfunctioning Adenomas Detected with Nonisotopic In Situ Hybridization Method.

Endocrine pathology

Matsuno A, Teramoto A, Takekoshi S, Sanno N, Osamura RY, Kirino T.
PMID: 12114686
Endocr Pathol. 1995;6(1):13-20. doi: 10.1007/BF02914985.

In situ hybridization (ISH), which can manifest the specific gene expression of anterior pituitary hormones (mRNA), as well as immunohistochemistry (IHC), is needed to clarify the endocrine function of pituitary adenomas. With the aid of nonisotopic ISH, which has...

Pituitary Changes in Ataxia-Telangiectasia Syndrome: An Immunocytochemical, In Situ Hybridization, and DNA Cytometric Study of Three Cases.

Endocrine pathology

Kovacs K, Giannini C, Scheithauer BW, Stefaneanu L, Lloyd RV, Horvath E.
PMID: 12114723
Endocr Pathol. 1997;8(3):195-203. doi: 10.1007/BF02738786.

Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) syndrome (cerebellar ataxia, oculocutaneous telangiectasias, immunodeficiency, susceptibility to infections, and neoplasia) is associated with cyto- and nucleomegaly in several organ systems. Our aim was to determine (1) whether such cellular abnormalities in the pituitary selectively involve specific...

Toward Multifactorial Hypothalamic Regulation of Anterior Pituitary Hormone Secretion.

News in physiological sciences : an international journal of physiology produced jointly by the International Union of Physiological Sciences and the American Physiological Society

Crowley WR.
PMID: 11390820
News Physiol Sci. 1999 Apr;14:54-58. doi: 10.1152/physiologyonline.1999.14.2.54.

The hypothalamus regulates the secretion of anterior pituitary hormones via release of releasing hormones into the hypophysial portal vasculature. Additional neuromessengers act at the pituitary to modulate responses to the hypothalamic hormones. For example, neuropeptide Y enhances the effect...

Pathology, pathogenesis and therapy of growth hormone (GH)-producing pituitary adenomas: technical advances in histochemistry and their contribution.

Acta histochemica et cytochemica

Osamura RY, Egashira N, Kajiya H, Takei M, Tobita M, Miyakoshi T, Inomoto C, Takekoshi S, Teramoto A.
PMID: 19759870
Acta Histochem Cytochem. 2009 Aug 29;42(4):95-104. doi: 10.1267/ahc.09004. Epub 2009 Aug 11.

Growth hormone (GH)-producing adenomas (GHomas) are one of the most frequently-occurring pituitary adenomas. Differentiation of hormone-producing cells in the pituitary gland is regulated by transcription factors and co-factors. The transcription factors include Pit-1, Prop-1, NeuroD1, Tpit, GATA-2, SF-1. Aberrant...

J Exp Med. 1940 May 31;71(6):839-56. doi: 10.1084/jem.71.6.839.

An hereditary type of dwarfism in the rabbit has been described. In contrast to the dwarfs described in other animals, this type is evident at birth and conforms to the classification, nannosomia primordialis, as used in human pathology. In...
