Cell life and death in the anterior pituitary gland: role of oestrogens
(Wiley, 2010-07)
Apoptotic processes play an important role in the maintenance of cell numbers in the anterior pituitary gland during physiological endocrine events. In this review, we summarise the regulation of apoptosis of anterior ...

Pituitary Apoplexy After a Single Dose of Long-Acting Octreotide
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2010-01-01)
Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare and potentially life-threatening syndrome resulting from an acute infarction or hemorrhage of the pituitary gland. Although the pathogenesis is not fully understood, some predisposing ...
Endocrine changes in cerebrospinal fluid, pituitary effluent, and peripheral plasma of anesthetized ponies

Objective - To investigate the effects of inhalation and total IV anesthesia on pituitary-adrenal activity in ponies. Animals - 9 healthy ponies: 5 geldings and 4 mares. Procedure - Catheters were placed in the cavernous ...
Cadmium induced-oxidative stress in pituitary gland is reversed by removing the contamination source
(Sage Publications, 2010-10)
Cadmium (Cd2+) is one of the most important environmental contaminants and acts as an endocrine disruptor. Previously, we have demonstrated that the simultaneous administration of Cd2+ and melatonin (Mel) in drinking water ...
Antiapoptotic factor humanin is expressed in normal and tumoral pituitary cells and protects them from TNF-α-induced apoptosis
(Public Library Of Science, 2014-10)
Humanin (HN) is a 24-amino acid peptide with cytoprotective action in several cell types such as neurons and testicular germ cells. Rattin (HNr), a homologous peptide of HN expressed in several adult rat tissues, also has ...
