Researchers have successfully converted human pluripotent stem cells into purified pituitary cells that aggregated into hormone-secreting organoids. As reported June 8 in the journal Stem Cell Reports ...

Pituitary stem cell biology has emerged as a pivotal field in understanding the maintenance and regeneration of the neuroendocrine system. Research in this domain has illuminated the role of ...

A research team led by Professor Takuya Yamamoto and Assistant Professor Ryusaku Matsumoto (Department of Life Science Frontiers) has developed a machine learning model that enables early prediction ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that gonadotrophs, cells in the pituitary gland with a key role in puberty and reproduction, come from two different populations, with the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have found that gonadotrophs, cells in the pituitary gland that regulate puberty and reproduction, arise from two distinct populations. Contrary to previous ...

Some doctors may classify pituitary tumors as brain tumors, although others may not. Brain tumors occur in brain tissue, whereas pituitary tumors originate in the pituitary gland, which is inside the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that gonadotrophs, cells in the pituitary gland with a key role in puberty and reproduction, come from two different populations, with the ...

Some people claim that home remedies can shrink a pituitary tumor naturally. There’s no evidence that this is true, but good lifestyle habits may help support your overall health. Pituitary tumors are ...

A person with pituitary cancer might experience headaches, diabetes insipidus, optic nerve damage, and more. However, those with the disease can be asymptomatic. Most pituitary tumors are noncancerous ...

Two adult mouse pituitary glands. On the left, gonadotrophs derived after birth from stem cells appear in yellow. On the right, gonadotrophs in the embryo appear in green/yellow in the centre of the ...
