Non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) are hormonally inactive benign tumors, usually diagnosed as macro-adenoma. The aim of our research was to analyze the clinical and hormonal characteristics of NFPAs using Knosp and revised Knosp classifications. Furthermore, we aimed to assess the possibility of predicting surgical remission after surgery.

Background: Collision sellar tumors are rare disease entities. Less than 30 cases have been reported in the literature in the last 20 years. We present the case of one patient diagnosed with a collision sellar tumor and describe the use of Enhanced Contact Endoscopy for pituitary gland and tumoral identification not previously described in the literature.

This article presents a narrative review that explores the potential link between kisspeptin-a key regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis-and the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Kisspeptin plays a significant role in regulating reproductive functions by modulating the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which in turn stimulates the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Recent studies suggest that kisspeptin may also impact peripheral reproductive tissues and influence inflammatory processes involved in the development of endometriosis.

This study aimed to investigate the regulation and underlying mechanism of Cathepsin K (CTSK) in bone-invasive pituitary adenomas (BIPAs). A total of 1437 patients with pituitary adenomas were included and followed up. RNA sequencing, immunohistochemistry, and qRT-PCR were used to analyze CTSK expression.
