چکیده    Background: pituitary tumors are a common form of endocrine neoplasia. however few studies assessed the expression of the principal cyclin regulating checkpoint exit,cyclin d1. cyclin d1 expression in pituitary tumors and its possible relation to mib-1 and p27/kip1 labeling indices (lis) was explored. design: we studied a total of 199 pituitaries,including normal pituitaries (n=7),pituitary adenomas (n=187),and pituitary carcinoma (n=5). all tissues were tested as cores of archived tissue microarrays that were immunostained for cyclin d1,mib-1 and p27 using a standard technique. tissue cores were subjected to automated analysis to evaluate the staining lis. results: no cyclin d1 positive cells in the normal anterior pituitary gland was found. sparse nuclear staining was noted in pituitary tumors. higher expression of cyclin d1 was noted in pituitary carcinomas compared to adenomas (p< 0.001),in non-functioning adenomas compared to functioning ones (p<. 0.001) in macroadenomas versus microadenomas (p=0.017) and in recurrent non recurrent adenomas (p<. 0.001). cyclin d1 li and mib-1 li were related among adenomas (p<. 0.001) and carcinomas (p=0.041). p27 li was neither related to pituitary adenoma recurrence nor invasion. conclusions: expression of cyclin d1 in pituitary tumors is related to cell proliferation,recurrence,and metastatic potential. nuclear cyclin d1 expression is a good marker of aggressive behavior in pituitary tumors. © 2011.
