All endocrine glands are susceptible to neoplastic growth, yet the health consequences of
these neoplasms differ between endocrine tissues. Pituitary neoplasms are highly prevalent …

Pituitary tumors are mostly benign monoclonal adenomas arising from adenohypophyseal
cells in the anterior pituitary. These tumors usually autonomously express and secrete …

Pituitary adenomas may hypersecrete hormones (including prolactin, growth hormone and
adrenocorticotropic hormone, and rarely follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone or …

Pituitary tumors exhibit a spectrum of biology, with variable growth and hormonal behaviors.
They therefore provide an opportunity to examine pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie …

Recently there has been significant progress in our understanding of pituitary development,
physiology, and pathology. New information has helped to clarify the classification of …

Pituitary adenomas are usually benign monoclonal tumours presenting either due to
hypersecretion of pituitary hormones, and/or due to local space occupying effects and …

Substantial advances have been made recently in the pathobiology of pituitary tumors.
Similar to many other endocrine tumors, over the last few years we have recognized the role …

The majority of pituitary adenomas are trophically stable and change relatively little in size
over many years. A comparatively small proportion behave more aggressively and come to …

Purpose: Pituitary adenomas are the second most common primary brain tumor, yet their
genetic profiles are incompletely understood. Experimental Design: We performed whole …

Pituitary adenomas are common neuroendocrine neoplasms arising from adenohypophysial
cells. Recent progress in our understanding of pituitary tumorigenesis as well as pathways …
