In 50 human pituitary adenomas, including 25 NFPA and 25 secreting adenomas (10 GH, 5 PRL, 6 LH and/or FSH, 4 GH/PRL), only one V600E mutation in a NFPA sample was found, suggesting that B-RAF mutations are a rare event in pituitary tumorigenesis [153]. Here, PRL is linked to pituitary gland adenoma.
