Reduced expression of the cytokine transducer gp130 inhibits hormone secretion, cell growth, and tumor development of pituitary lactosomatotrophic GH3 cells (2003)

Castro, CP, Giacomini, D, Nagashima, AC, Onofri, C, Graciarena, M, Kobayashi, K, ...

Two of the most potent cytokines that regulate anterior pituitary cell function are leukemia inhibitory factor and IL- 6. These and others like IL-11 and ciliary neurotrophic factor are referred to...

Transforming growth factor-β stimulates vascular endothelial growth factor production by folliculostellate pituitary cells (2002)

Renner, U, Lohrer, P, Schaaf, L, Feirer, M, Schmitt, K, Onofri, C, ...

TGF-beta isoforms are expressed in the anterior pituitary and modulate the growth and function of endocrine pituitary cells. Recently, TGF-beta has been shown to stimulate growth and basic fibroblast...

The role of endothelins in the regulation of pituitary function (2002)

Lange, M, Pagotto, U, Renner, U, Arzberger, T, Oeckler, R, Stalla, GK

The different members of the endothelin peptide family exhibit potent, long-lasting vasoconstrictive effects and thus play a central role in blood pressure regulation. However, endothelins have also...

The intrapituitary stimulatory effect of lipopolysaccharide on ACTH secretion is mediated by paracrine-acting IL-6 (2001)

Gloddek, J, Lohrer, P, Stalla, J, Arzt, E, Stalla, GK, Renner, U

During infection/inflammation bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activates the immune system and thus enhances the level of circulating cytokines. These circulating cytokines induce adaptive...

Floating pulmonary embolus: unusual cause of recurrent syncope (1984)

BUSCH, U., RENNER, U., WIRTZFELD, A., SEBENING, H., KLEIN, G., HAGL, S.

A 69-year old woman was admitted because of recurrent syncopal episodes. In hospital, she had repeated attacks of near fainting or syncope when she was turned into the left decubitus position....

Expression and localization of endothelin-1 and endothelin receptors in human meningiomas. Evidence for a role in tumoral growth.

Pagotto, U, Arzberger, T, Hopfner, U, Sauer, J, Renner, U, Newton, C J, ...

In addition to its well-known homoeostatic actions in the cardiovascular system, ET-1 has been shown to constitute a potent growth regulatory peptide in various tissues. We have studied the...

Interleukin-2 and interleukin-2 receptor expression in human corticotrophic adenoma and murine pituitary cell cultures.

Arzt, E, Stelzer, G, Renner, U, Lange, M, Müller, O A, Stalla, G K

The production of IL-1 and IL-6 by pituitary cells has recently been demonstrated. In this study we investigated the expression of IL-2 and its receptor (IL-2R) by pituitary cells of different...

Interleukin-2 and interleukin-2 receptor expression in human corticotrophic adenoma and murine pituitary cell cultures.

Arzt, E, Stelzer, G, Renner, U, Lange, M, Müller, O A, Stalla, G K

The production of IL-1 and IL-6 by pituitary cells has recently been demonstrated. In this study we investigated the expression of IL-2 and its receptor (IL-2R) by pituitary cells of different...

Retinoic acid stimulates meningioma cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and inhibits invasion

Pereda, M Páez, Hopfner, U, Pagotto, U, Renner, U, Uhl, E, Arzt, E, ...

Meningiomas are tumours derived from the arachnoid and pia mater. During embryogenesis, these membranes develop from the migrating craniofacial neural crest. We have previously demonstrated that...
