Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells (2021)
Journal Article
Regan, J., Mirczuk, S., Scudder, C., Stacey, E., Khan, S., Powles, T., …Fowkes, R. (2021). Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells. Cells, https://doi.org/10.3390/cells10020398

C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is the major natriuretic peptide of the central nervous system and acts via its selective guanylyl cyclase-B (GC-B) receptor to regulate cGMP production in neurons, astrocytes and endothelial cells. CNP is implicated... Read More about Sensitivity of the Natriuretic Peptide/cGMP System to Hyperammonaemia in Rat C6 Glioma Cells and GPNT Brain Endothelial Cells.

Pituitary Neoplasm Nomenclature Workshop: Does Adenoma Stand the Test of Time? (2021)
Journal Article
Ho, K., Fleseriu, M., Kaiser, U., Salvatori, R., Brue, T., Lopes, M. B., …Melmed, S. (2021). Pituitary Neoplasm Nomenclature Workshop: Does Adenoma Stand the Test of Time?. Journal of the Endocrine Society, 5(3), https://doi.org/10.1210/jendso/bvaa205

The WHO Classification of Endocrine Tumours designates pituitary neoplasms as adenomas. A proposed nomenclature change to pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) has been met with concern by some stakeholder groups. The Pituitary Society coordinate...

Natriuretic peptide expression and function in GH3 somatolactotropes and feline somatotrope pituitary tumors (2021)
Journal Article
Mirczuk, S., Scudder, C., Read, J., Crossley, V., Regan, J., Richardson, K., …Fowkes, R. (2021). Natriuretic peptide expression and function in GH3 somatolactotropes and feline somatotrope pituitary tumors. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, -. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22031076

Patients harbouring mutations in genes encoding C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP; NPPC) or its receptor guanylyl cyclase B (GC-B, NPR2) suffer from severe growth phenotypes; loss-of-function mutations cause achondroplasia, whereas gain-of-function mut...
