Abstract
Two novel molecular mechanisms with a driver role in pituitary tumorigenesis have been recently identified. They are (a) mutations in the Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 8 (USP8) gene in corticotroph tumors and (b) overexpression of the HMGA1 and HMGA2 genes in most of the pituitary tumors. Moreover, deregulated expression of the non-coding RNAs has been very frequently observed in this neoplasia. The aim of this review is to better elucidate the role, the mechanisms, and the possible clinical impact of these novel alterations in the development of pituitary neoplasia.
