Evidence for a direct action of neuropeptide Y in the rat pituitary gland.
TL;DR: In this article, an immunocytochemical method was used with the aim of localizing endogenous neuropeptide Y (NPY) like material at the cellular and subcellular levels of the pituitary gland.

Postsynaptic serotonin-sensitive adenylate cyclase in the central nervous system. II. Comparison with dopamine- and isoproterenol-sensitive adenylate cyclases in rat brain.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the structures of their antagonist forms may be closely related and that the serotoninergic and dopaminergic receptors may exist in agonist and antagonist forms.

TL;DR: Over the last 5 years, new actors involved in the pathogenesis of combined pituitary hormone deficiency in humans have been reported: they included a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily glycoprotein and ciliary G protein-coupled receptors, as well as new transcription factors and signalling molecules.

TL;DR: The remarkable association of two rare disorders affecting two functionally related systems in four patients from three independent pedigrees including a familial case provides strong evidence of the existence of a disease association: deficit in anterior pituitary function and variable immune deficiency, or DAVID.

Pituitary transcription factors: from congenital deficiencies to gene therapy.
TL;DR: Gene transfer by lentiviral vectors should provide a promising step towards developing an efficient specific therapeutic approach by which a gene therapy programme for treating human pituitary adenomas could be based.
