Intraosseous lipomas are rare benign tumors of mesenchymal origin, particularly unusual in the maxilla. Spindle cell lipomas, a histological subtype, are even more uncommon, with limited cases reported in the literature. This report documents a rare case of intraosseous spindle cell lipoma in the anterior maxilla of a 66-year-old male and presents a review of 39 gnathic lipoma cases from the literature published between 1976 and 2024.

Vasopressin (AVP), a nonapeptide synthesized predominantly by magnocellular hypothalamic neurons, is conveyed to the posterior pituitary the pituitary stalk, where AVP is secreted into the circulation. Known to regulate blood pressure and water homeostasis, it also modulates diverse social behaviors, such as pair-bonding, social recognition and cognition in mammals including humans. Importantly, AVP modulates social behaviors in a gender-specific manner, perhaps, due to gender differences in the distribution in the brain of AVP and its main receptor AVPR1a.

Article Synopsis
  • High levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in post-menopausal women are linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD), as shown by studies in mice.
  • Mice lacking FSH receptors displayed improved spatial memory, indicating that blocking FSH signaling can help prevent memory loss related to aging and AD-like pathology.
  • The findings suggest that targeting FSH could be a potential strategy for preventing memory deficits in post-menopausal women.
