Multi-chaperone function modulation and association with cytoskeletal proteins are key features of the function of AIP in the pituitary gland.
(2018-02-06)
Despite the well-recognized role of loss-of-function mutations of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein gene (AIP) predisposing to pituitary adenomas, the pituitary-specific function of this tumor suppressor ...
Somatic USP8 mutations are frequent events in corticotroph tumor progression causing Nelson's tumor.
(2018-01)
OBJECTIVE: Somatic mutations in the ubiquitin-specific protease 8 (USP8) gene are frequent in corticotroph tumors causing Cushing's disease (CD). Corticotroph tumor progression, the so-called Nelson's syndrome (NS), is a ...
From pituitary adenoma to pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET): an International Pituitary Pathology Club proposal.
(2017-04)
The classification of neoplasms of adenohypophysial cells is misleading because of the simplistic distinction between adenoma and carcinoma, based solely on metastatic spread and the poor reproducibility and predictive ...
AIP and the somatostatin system in pituitary tumours.
(2017-12)
Classic somatostatin analogues aimed at somatostatin receptor type 2, such as octreotide and lanreotide, represent the mainstay of medical treatment for acromegaly. These agents have the potential to decrease hormone ...
