pioglitazone and Cancer of Pituitary

pioglitazone has been researched along with Cancer of Pituitary in 2 studies

Pioglitazone: A thiazolidinedione and PPAR GAMMA agonist that is used in the treatment of TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS.
pioglitazone : A member of the class of thiazolidenediones that is 1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-dione substituted by a benzyl group at position 5 which in turn is substituted by a 2-(5-ethylpyridin-2-yl)ethoxy group at position 4 of the phenyl ring. It exhibits hypoglycemic activity.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In both pituitary and adrenocortical cancer, RGZ treatment results in inhibition of cell proliferation, through G0/G1 cell-cycle arrest and induction of cell apoptosis, leading to significant inhibition of tumor growth in the xenograft tumor models."2.46Role of the PPAR-γ system in normal and tumoral pituitary corticotropic cells and adrenal cells. ( Borgogni, E; Cantini, G; Canu, L; Ercolino, T; Luconi, M; Mangoni, M; Mannelli, M; Nesi, G; Piccini, V; Poli, G; Rapizzi, E, 2010)
"Pioglitazone was of similar potency to rosiglitazone in inhibiting proliferation."1.33PPAR-gamma expression in pituitary tumours and the functional activity of the glitazones: evidence that any anti-proliferative effect of the glitazones is independent of the PPAR-gamma receptor. ( Bonner, SE; Emery, MN; Galloway, M; Grossman, AB; Korbonits, M; Leontiou, C; Merulli, C; Musat, M; Nanzer, AM; Nikookam, K; Powell, M, 2006)
