Somatic mutations are found in only 15% of pituitary adenomas. In those causing Cushing's disease, a neurodevelopmental phosphoprotein program is reactivated and the PP2A inhibitor PPP1R17 overexpressed; in mouse pituitary cells overexpressing it, fingolimod reversed the overgrowth.

Who said aging has to feel old? 🎉

This little powerhouse signals your pituitary gland to naturally boost growth hormone production, so you can feel more like you again!
