Study Notes
Median Lobe of Pituitary
- The median lobe of the pituitary gland is not well-developed in humans.
- It consists of a thin layer of cells located between the anterior (front) and posterior (back) lobes of the pituitary.
- This anatomical feature distinguishes humans from some other species where the median lobe is more prominent.
- The median lobe plays a role in the synthesis and release of specific hormones, but its functionality is less significant in humans compared to other species.
