( Schnirer et al . 2003 ). The tumors are neoplasms of peptide- and amine-producing cells. Some patients will develop the carcinoid syndrome due to excessive secretion of serotonin and other metabolites, which includes flushing, diarrhea, abdominal pain

Introduction Pituitary tumours account for 10–15% of all intracranial neoplasms. Despite extensive research, the pathogenesis of the majority of pituitary adenomas remains to be clarified. Deregulation of various cell-cycle pathways
