DOI: 10.1007/s00441-020-03200-1
Abstract: The anterior pituitary gland is composed of five types of hormone-producing cells and folliculo-stellate cells. Folliculo-stellate cells do not produce anterior pituitary hormones but they are thought to play important roles as stem cells, phagocytes,… read more here.

Effect of distance from target on hypopituitarism after stereotactic radiosurgery for pituitary adenomas
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Neuro-Oncology"
DOI: 10.1007/s11060-022-04007-6
Abstract: Delayed hypopituitarism is the most common complication after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for pituitary adenomas. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the distance from the hypothalamic-pituitary axis to the treatment target… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12565-020-00583-7
Abstract: Corticotrophs produce a hormone that stimulates the adrenal gland cortex to secrete glucocorticoids, which in turn have effects on carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Quantification, morphological characteristics, and distribution of corticotrophs in the anterior pituitary and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2017.11.009
Abstract: Tibetan minipig is an important animal model for human diseases. The anterior pituitary is the master gland responsible for growth, reproduction, and metabolism and is regulated by thousands of miRNAs/mRNAs molecules. However, little is known… read more here.

Differential delayed responses of arginine vasotocin and its receptors in septo-hypothalamic brain structures and anterior pituitary that sustain hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis functions during acute stress.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2019.113302
Abstract: Recently, we proposed that corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) neurons in the nucleus of hippocampal commissure (NHpC), located in the septum, function as a part of the traditional hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in avian species. CRH and… read more here.

Impact of One-Week Administration of Dihydrotestosterone in Rat Anterior Pituitary Gland
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Endocrinology"
DOI: 10.1155/2022/9525227
Abstract: Hyperandrogenism causes dysfunction of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis in reproductive women. In this study, we examined the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on characteristic changes in rat anterior pituitary gland samples. DHT was administered to ovary-intact… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2023/3143347
Abstract: Ovariectomy (OVX) causes a depletion of circulating estradiol (E2) and influences hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons, which govern gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release and ultimately gonadotropin secretion. In this study, we examined the changes induced by OVX on… read more here.
