INVITED COMMENTARY Growth factors and human pituitary adenomas
In recent years, the demonstration that human pituitary adenomas are monoclonal provides further support for the existence of genomic mutations occurring in the progenitor cell that subsequently undergoes clonal expansion. All the molecules that physiologically control pituitary cell differentiation and growth may be potentially oncogenic as they may become the target of mutations or be altered...
متن کاملMicroRNAs in Human Pituitary Adenomas
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of recently identified noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at posttranscriptional level. Due to the large number of genes regulated by miRNAs, miRNAs play important roles in many cellular processes. Emerging evidence indicates that miRNAs are dysregulated in pituitary adenomas, a class of intracranial neoplasms which account for 10-15% of diagnosed brain ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Nitroproteome in Human Pituitary Adenomas
Protein tyrosine nitration is an important reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species (ROS/RNS)-related modification that is derived from the main in vivo peroxynitrite pathway and the secondary myeloperoxidase reaction pathway (Scaloni, 2006, Khan et al., 1998, Zhan & Desiderio, 2009a, 2009b, and 2009c, Dalle-Donne et al., 2005, Zhan, Wang, & Desiderio, 2013). Tyrosine nitration adds an...
متن کاملPituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas.
Pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas are similar in some aspects. Usually, they both are histologically benign, slow-growing intracranial tumors that arise in the sellar and parasellar areas, and tend to cause similar symptoms and signs, such as, but not limited to, progressive visual loss, progressive endocrine problems, and headache. They both are likely to have an excellent prognosis if...
متن کاملMicroscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery for Pituitary Adenomas in Children and Adolescents
Background & Aim: We described the presentation, management and subsequent treatment outcomes of children and adolescents diagnosed with a pituitary adenoma in a joint neuroendocrine setting followed up by a single service as well as assessing long-term outcomes in terms of endocrine status and neurology symptoms. Methods & Materials/Patients: A total of 21 participants with histologically v...
