General description
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (also known as TSH or thyrotropin) is a peptide hormone synthesized and secreted by thyrotrope cells in the anterior pituitary gland which regulate the endocrine function of the thyroid gland. TSH is a glycoprotein and consists of two subunits, the alpha and the beta subunit, which are non-covalently bound to one another. The alpha subunit of TSH is also present in two other pituitary glycoprotein hormones: Follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone and, in primates, in the placental hormone chorionic gonadotropin. Each of these hormones also has a unique beta subunit, which provides receptor specificity. In other words, TSH is composed of alpha subunit bound to the TSH beta subunit, and TSH associates only with its own receptor. Free alpha and beta subunits have essentially no biological activity. Anti-TSH reacts with TSH-producing cells (thyrotrophs), and is a useful marker in classification of pituitary tumors and the differential identification of primary and metastatic tumors in the pituitary gland.1-5

A 36-year-old woman with hyperthyroidism, elevated blood thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and alpha-subunit levels, amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia and no evidence of acromegaly, was found to have a pituitary adenoma containing TSH, alpha-subunit and growth hormone by immunohistochemistry. Preoperative testing revealed elevated TSH

We evaluated the presence of anterior pituitary hormones; follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and its beta-subunit (beta-FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and its beta-subunit (beta-LH), beta-subunit of thyroid-stimulating hormone (beta-TSH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), growth hormone (GH), and prolactin (PRL); the placental hormone human

TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas are rare. The transcriptional expression (messenger ribonucleic acids: mRNAs) of TSH beta, GH, and PRL in five patients with TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma was studied by the in situ hybridization (ISH) method in order to elucidate their multiple

Endocrine and immunohistochemical studies were performed in two cases of TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas. The patients had elevated serum TSH and alpha-subunit concentrations despite high serum thyroid hormone levels. In addition, one patient (no. 1) had elevated serum GH levels with

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which is a well-known regulator of gonadotroph function, has recently been considered to be a paracrine factor involved in the control of somatotroph, lactotroph, and corticotroph cells. GnRH action is initiated by binding to a specific cell
