Abstract:Introduction/Objective. In this study, we have pointed out the
immunohistomorphometric characteristics of somatotropic (GH) and
folliculo-stellate (FS) cells of the human pituitary gland during ageing.
Methods. On histological sections of the pituitary gland of 14 male cadavers
of different ages, the GH and FS cells were immunohistochemically labeled
with corresponding antibodies, monoclonal anti-GH antibody and polyclonal
anti-S100 antibody, respectively. Immunopositive GH- and FS-cells wer… Show more
