Increase in folate receptor alpha expression in nonfunctional pituitary adenomas.
AIM Human pituitary adenomas account for 10% of intracranial tumours and occur in about 20% of the population. They cause hypopituitarism or the compression of adjacent regional structures. However, little is known about the molecular pathogenesis that contributes to the development of these tumours. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this study, we investigated the relationship between the expression l...
متن کاملIn vivo assay of folate receptors in nonfunctional pituitary adenomas with 99mTc-folate SPECT/CT.
UNLABELLED The objective of this study was to evaluate the in vivo assay of folate receptors in nonfunctional pituitary adenomas using preoperative (99m)Tc-folate SPECT/CT and Western blot analysis (WBA) of surgical specimens as the standard. METHODS Fifty-six patients (29 men, 27 women; age range, 29-82 y) with clinically nonfunctional pituitary adenomas on MRI underwent preoperative imaging...
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 کامل[Treatment of pituitary adenomas].
There has been a dramatic development in the treatment of pituitary adenomas during the last two decades. The main factors which led to this development were the introduction of transsphenoidal surgery, the development of new imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the introduction of newer dopaminergic agents. Present status of the treatment...
متن کاملProlactin Secreting Pituitary Adenomas
Correspondence to: Ioana Muntean, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Hyperprolactinemia has different etiologic forms, among them, the prolactin-secreting pituitary tumors represent an important entity. In our study, were analyzed the clinical aspects, diagnostic procedures and therapeutical approach of 31 cases of prolactinomas (F/M ratio = 27/4) hospitalized in the Clinic of Endocrinol...
