Tumors of the anterior pituitary are relativelyfrequent
GH producing adenomas are a cause of acromegaly
Symptoms of acromegaly mayvarywidely

Circadian Rhythm in ACTH and Cortisol Cortisol (mg/dL) ACTH (pg/mL) 15 20 5 1 6am 6pm 6am
Effects of cortisol (and corticosteroid drugs) 1. Increased plasma glucose 2. Inhibits bone deposition, promotes resorption 3. Dampens inflammatory and immune responses 4. Inhibits collagen formation 5. Increases gastric secretions 6. Promotes fluid retention
Excesscortisol produces Cushing’ s syndrome
