Abstract:
Abstract Our laboratory has reported that somatotroph differentiation occurs between d 14 and d 16 of chicken embryonic development and that corticosterone (CORT) can induce somatotroph differentiation at an earlier age in vitro and in vivo. The objective of the present study was to test for thyroid hormone-CORT interactions on somatotroph differentiation in vitro. Pituitary cells from d 11 chicken embryos were treated with CORT and thyroid hormones, and GH-producing somatotrophs were detected by reverse hemolytic plaque assays and immunocytochemistry. We found that thyroid hormones can act sy

Abstract:
Growth hormone cell differentiation normally occurs between day 14 and day 16 of chicken embryonic development. We reported previously that corticosterone (CORT) could induce somatotroph differentiation in vitro and in vivo and that thyroid hormones could act in combination with CORT to further augment the abundance of somatotrophs in vitro. The objective of the present study was to test our hypothesis that endogenous thyroid hormones regulate the abundance of somatotrophs during chicken embryonic development. Plasma samples were collected on embryonic day (e) 9-14. We found that plasma CORT a

Abstract:
The anterior pituitary gland (AP) increases growth hormone (GH) secretion in response to resistance exercise (RE), but the nature of AP adaptations to RE is unknown. To that end, we examined the effects of RE on regional AP somatotroph GH release, structure, and relative quantity. Thirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to one of four groups: 1) no training or acute exercise (NT-NEX); 2) no training with acute exercise (NT-EX); 3) resistance training without acute exercise (RT-NEX); 4) resistance training with acute exercise (RT-EX).

Abstract:
Prior research indicates that growth hormone (GH) cell differentiation can be induced prematurely by treatment with glucocorticoids in vitro and in vivo. However, the nature of these responses has not been fully characterized. In this study, the time course of corticosterone induction of GH-secreting cells in cultures of chicken embryonic pituitary cells, responsiveness of differentiated somatotrophs to GH secretagogues, localization of somatotroph precursor cells within the pituitary gland, and the effect of corticosterone on GH gene expression were determined to better define the involvement

Abstract:
Acromegaly and gigantism are due to prolonged oversecretion of growth hormone (GH) most often caused by a somatotroph adenoma of the pituitary. Although the morphologic features of various types of somatotroph adenomas have been extensively investigated by electron microscopy, very little information is available on the ultrastructural changes of non-tumorous somatotrophs in cases of protracted GH excess. Transgenic mice with foreign GH gene incorporated into their genome secrete ectopically increased quantities of GH, have elevated serum GH levels and develop gigantism; thus it seemed conceiv

Abstract Glucocorticoids can induce somatotroph differentiation in vitro and in vivo during chick embryonic and rat fetal development. In the present study, we identified the nuclear receptors involved in somatotroph differentiation and examined their ontogeny and cellular distribution during pituitary development in the chicken embryo. Several steroids were tested for their ability to induce GH cell differentiation. Only glucocorticoids and aldosterone were effective at low nanomolar concentrations, suggesting involvement of both type I (mineralocorticoid) and type II (glucocorticoid) recepto

The dwarf (dw/dw) rat differs from all other rodent models of GH deficiency in that its pituitary prolactin (PRL) content is normal or even increased. We have now studied this throughout postnatal development, using a combination of immunocytochemistry, RIA and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and analysis. Compared with normal Albino Swiss (AS) rats, adult dw/dw rats showed a profound reduction in pituitary GH content accompanied by increased PRL content, significantly so in females (AS vs dw/dw; P<0.01).

Abstract The transcription factor GHF-1/Pit-1 is essential for the expression of GH and prolactin (PRL) by somatotrophs and lactotrophs respectively. However, PRL is not expressed in mature somatotrophs despite the presence of GHF-1/Pit-1. A possible mechanism is the presence of a somatotroph-specific repressor in the 5′-flanking sequences of the PRL gene. The region −3500/−1750 of the human (h) PRL gene is associated with negative regulatory activity and contains an element, designated D8, that resembles repressor PSF-A sequences which are located in the distal upstream region of placental me

Abstract:
Growth hormone (GH) is primarily synthesized, stored, and released by pituitary somatotrophs. These cells comprise a highly labile population that continuously undergoes proliferation, differentiation, and morphogenesis in response to changing physiological stimuli. They are also functionally and morphologically heterogeneous with distinct spatial and temporal distribution within the pituitary gland. The characteristics of these cells are discussed in this brief review.Key words: somatotroph, aves, growth hormone, adenohypophysis.

Abstract:
Growth Hormone (GH), also known as somatotrophin, is of cardinal importance in the regulation of somatic growth. Decreased GH expression results in short stature, whereas increased levels of GH lead to disorders such as gigantism or acromegaly. Mutations in the transcription factor Pit-1 have been shown to decrease GH, as well as prolactin (PRL; Parks et al., JCEM, 1999). However, understanding the regulation by selective GH transcription regulators, such as Zn16, a protein encoding 16 zinc fingers that binds to the GH promotor DNA (Wojtkiewicz et al., Endocrine, 2002), will require comparison

Abstract:
Growth Hormone (GH), also known as somatotropin, is a protein hormone secreted from the anterior pituitary gland. GH action results in longitudinal bone growth in children and adolescents and continues later to control a variety of metabolic reactions in adults. DNA polymorphisms leading to a decrease in GH expression result in persons of short stature, whereas those leading to overexpression of GH produce either acromegaly or gigantism. In order to diagnose and treat patients with altered GH production, understanding the control of GH expression is thus clinically relevant. In order to un
