Journal ArticleDOI
Predictability of hypoadrenalism occurrence and duration after adrenalectomy for ACTH-independent hypercortisolism.
Valentina Morelli,L Minelli,Cristina Eller-Vainicher,Serena Palmieri,Elisa Cairoli,Anna Spada,Maura Arosio,Maura Arosio,Iacopo Chiodini +8 more
TL;DR: The PSH occurrence and its duration are hardly predictable before surgery, and all patients undergoing unilateral adrenalectomy should receive a steroid substitutive therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of thyrotropin-releasing hormone on growth hormone release in normal subjects pretreated with human pancreatic growth hormone-releasing factor 1-44 pulsatile administration.
Alessandro Sartorio,Anna Spada,D. Bochicchio,Antonio Atterrato,Francesco Carlo Morabito,Giovanni Faglia +5 more
TL;DR: GRF induced a clear rise in plasma GH, statistically different from those obtained after placebo or TRH (p less than 0.01), and TRH was completely ineffective in both stimulating GH release and amplifying the secretory GH response to GRF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth factors and human pituitary adenomas.
Anna Spada,Andrea Lania +1 more
TL;DR: Several lines of evidence indicate that in pituitary tumors growth factors or their receptors may be overexpressed at variable levels and the contribution of these defects in human pituitsary tumorigenesis remains to be established.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormonal Signaling and Pituitary Adenomas
TL;DR: This review will focus on the possible impact of G proteins and other components of hormone signaling on pituitary tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filamin-A is required to mediate SST2 effects in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours.
Eleonora Vitali,Valeria Cambiaghi,Alessandro Zerbi,Carlo Carnaghi,Piergiuseppe Colombo,Erika Peverelli,Anna Spada,Giovanna Mantovani,Andrea Lania +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that FLNA plays a crucial role in SST2 expression and signalling, angiogenesis, cell adhesion and cell migration in P-NETs and in QGP1 cell line, suggesting a possible role of FLNA in determining the different responsiveness to SS analogues observed in P -NET patients.
