[Transcription factors of the anterior pituitary and combined hypopituitarism].

Abstract excerpt

In the recent years, spontaneous and experimental models of hypopituitarism have underlined the involvement of a number of homeodomain transcription factors in different forms of congenital anterior pituitary hormone deficiencies. Indeed, abnormalities of the transcription factor Pit-1 are responsible for combined deficiencies affecting thyrotroph, somatotroph and lactotroph cell lineages both in dwarf mouse...
