We will also soon launch a pan-European examination with UEMS, which can be taken at any Pearson Vue centre across Europe. These initiatives sit alongside ESE’s well respected courses. Our next task is to bring these activities together, to demonstrate their ability to underpin endocrine education at all stages.

THE ENDO EXPLORER The Endo Explorer Evolving a passion for endocrinology After two decades of evolution Like everything else in life, research groups develop and evolve. At the turn of this century, the team of Paco Gracia-Navarro grew, under the joint leadership of his former disciples Maria Malagón and Justo Castaño, to unveil the cellular and molecular signalling mechanisms underlying the regulatory actions of ghrelin, PACAP (pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide), growth hormone- releasing hormone, somatostatin, adipokines and their receptors in somatotrophs and other pituitary cell types. In addition, they explored the role of novel players in the processing and trafficking of pituitary hormones, particularly in melanotrophs. These multiple interests naturally led to the generation of two novel, independent research groups, led by Professors Malagón and Castaño, which Justo Castaño and Raúl Luque’s group expanded their particular endocrine interests into two strongly emerging fields: adipobiology and endocrine oncology respectively. In retrospect, one realises that endocrinology was deeply At about the same time, Dr Aguilar’s group passed the baton engraved on the heart, and the fate, of Córdoba, the on to a new leader, his disciple Manuel Tena-Sempere, who was busy at the time igniting the ‘Kiss’ explosion in the field beautiful Spanish city of famous physicians like Avicena of reproductive neuroendocrinology.

A few blocks away, Enrique Aguilar Benítez de Lugo, a physician scientist who arrived at the Physiology Section of the School of Medicine in 1980, initiated the building of a new research group focused on reproductive physiology, with special emphasis on the neuroendocrine mechanisms regulating puberty, fertility and reproductive health and their interactions with growth and metabolism. The group applied classic and novel methodologies in experimental neuroendocrinology to characterise, using rodent models, the role of gonadal hormones and different neurotransmitters in the central control of sex differentiation and pituitary secretion, with special attention to gonadotrophins, prolactin and growth hormone, thereby fostering quality research in this field.

THE ENDO EXPLORER ‘The best part of the journey has been the number of incredible collaborators and friends that we have met and enjoyed along the way: we thank them all’ Manuel Tena-Sempere’s group With help from our friends Our teams have always actively collaborated, and our development would not have been the same without close interaction with clinical research teams in Córdoba, at the Reina Sofia University Hospital and the Maimonides Institute of Biomedical Research of Córdoba (IMIBIC).

(2) Histopathological analysis, including pituitary hormones and proliferative markers, is needed for correct tumour classification. (3) Temozolomide monotherapy is the first-line chemotherapy for aggressive pituitary tumours and pituitary carcinomas after failure of standard therapies. Treatment evaluation after three cycles allows identification of responder and non-responder patients. (4) In patients responding to first-line temozolomide, we suggest continuing the treatment for at least 6 months in total. Furthermore, the guideline offers recommendations for patients who recurred after temozolomide treatment, for those who did not respond to temozolomide, and for patients with systemic metastasis.
