Anterior pituitary adenomas: inherited syndromes, novel genes and molecular pathways

Abstract excerpt

Pituitary adenomas are common tumors. Although rarely malignant, pituitary adenomas cause significant morbidity due to mass effects and/or hormonal hypo- and/or hyper-secretion. Molecular understanding of pituitary adenoma formation is essential for the development of medical therapies and the treatment of post-operative recurrences. In general, mutations in genes involved in genetic syndromes associated with...
