Outline of Final Research Achievements

The partial pituitary injury model in the rat was established with the topical application of the tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA). The pituitary function in this model was mainly impaired at the GH/IGF-1 axis. Histological investigation demonstrated increased number of Ki-67 positive cells in the intermediate and anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. The number of the Sox2 positive cells were also increased, which demonstrated co-expression of S-100. This provided some evidence that the follicle satellite cells were responsible for maintenance and recovery of pituitary function.
