Journal ArticleDOI
Non-functioning pituitary adenoma database : a useful resource to improve the clinical management of pituitary tumors
Emanuele Ferrante,Monica Ferraroni,Tristana Castrignanò,Laura Menicatti,Mascia Anagni,Giuseppe Reimondo,Patrizia Del Monte,Donatella Bernasconi,Paola Loli,Marco Faustini-Fustini,Giorgio Borretta,Massimo Terzolo,Marco Losa,Alberto Morabito,Anna Spada,Paolo Beck-Peccoz,Andrea Lania +16 more
TL;DR: The database indicates that the goal of a definitive surgical cure has been achieved during the last decade in a low percentage of patients with NFPA, and may help to reduce the delay between symptom onset and diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Gsα Gene: Predominant Maternal Origin of Transcription in Human Thyroid Gland and Gonads
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for a predominant maternal origin of GNAS1 transcripts in different human adult endocrine tissues, particularly thyroid, ovary, and pituitary, which strongly suggest that this mechanism may play a crucial role in the determination of the phenotypic expression of Albright's hereditary osteodistrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal and foetal resistin and adiponectin concentrations in normal and complicated pregnancies.
Donatella Cortelazzi,Sabrina Corbetta,Stefania Ronzoni,Francesca Pelle,Anna Maria Marconi,V. Cozzi,Irene Cetin,Riccardo Cortelazzi,Paolo Beck-Peccoz,Anna Spada +9 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to evaluate how resistin and adiponectin are involved in maternal energy metabolism and foetal growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thyrotropin secretion in patients with central hypothyroidism: evidence for reduced biological activity of immunoreactive thyrotropin.
Giovanni Faglia,Lucille Bitensky,Aldo Pinchera,Carlo Ferrari,A. Paracchi,Paolo Beck-Peccoz,Bruno Ambrosi,Anna Spada +7 more
TL;DR: Present data suggest that several patients with hypothyroidism consequent to hypothalamic-pituitary diseases secrete a material which is immunologically similar to pituitary standard TSH and responds to stimulatory and suppressive agents in a manner similar to normal TSH but has low or absent biological activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adiponectin expression in human fetal tissues during mid- and late gestation.
Sabrina Corbetta,Gaetano Bulfamante,Donatella Cortelazzi,Valeria Barresi,Irene Cetin,Giovanna Mantovani,Sara Bondioni,Paolo Beck-Peccoz,Anna Spada +8 more
TL;DR: The unexpected pattern of ApN expression in the human fetus may account for the high ApN levels in cord blood and predicts novel roles for ApN during fetal development.
