Intrahypophyseal Immune-Endocrine Interactions: Endocrine Integration of the Inflammatory Inputs

Endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) of gram-negative bacteria has been recognized for more than 40 years as a modulator of anterior pituitary hormone production. The action of LPS was thought to be predominantly mediated through LPS-stimulated immune cell-derived cytokines, and is part of the concep...
