Radiotherapy (RT) remains an effective treatment for residual or recurrent pituitary adenomas with excellent rates of tumour control and normalisation of excess hormone secretion. The main late toxicity is hypopituitarism: other side effect...

Somatostatin receptors (sst1-5) and dopamine receptor 2 (D2DR) are well expressed and co-localized in several human pituitary adenomas, suggesting possible functional interactions in the control of hormonal hypersecretion and tumor cell gro...

Somatostatin (SS) and dopamine (DA) receptors are widely expressed in neuroendocrine tumours that cause Cushing's Syndrome (CS). Increasing knowledge of specific subtype expression within these tumours and the ability to target these recept...

Growth hormone (GH) regulates somatic growth, substrate metabolism and body composition. Its actions are elaborated through the GH receptor (GHR). GHR signalling involves the role of at least three major pathways, STATs, MAPK, and PI3-kinas...

Cushing's disease is a severe clinical condition caused by hypersecretion of corticosteroids due to excessive ACTH secretion from a pituitary adenoma. This complex endocrine disorder still represents a major challenge for the physician in t...

Growth hormone (GH) is the primary regulator of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) production in a wide variety of tissues. There is much overlap in the endocrine, metabolic and anabolic effects of GH and IGF-I but both hormones have dive...

Cytokines, particularly those endowed with pro-inflammatory properties, are known to influence the release of anterior pituitary hormones by a direct and indirect action at the level of pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Type I interferons (...
