Description
Function and disease of the pituitary gland have long been at the center of
research interest. Based on a recent scientific meeting held in Angra dos Reis,
Brazil, this volume of Frontiers of Hormone Research presents the latest research
results: specialists from Latin and North America, Europe and Australia discuss
in their contributions different aspects of pathogenesis, diagnostics and therapy
of pituitary disease and pituitary tumors. Topics covered include pituitary
cell development and organization in adult pituitary, tumorigenesis, prolactinomas,
growth hormone and acromegaly, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and Cushing
disease.
This update on basic and clinical pituitary research is essential reading for
endocrinologists, neuroendocrinologists and neurosurgeons as well as researchers
and biochemists interested in the different aspects of pituitary physiopathology.
