In humans, traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes pathological changes in the hypothalamus (HT) and the pituitary. One consequence of TBI is hypopituitarism, with deficiency of single or multiple hormones of the anterior pituitary (AP), including growth hormone (GH). At present no animal model of TBI with ensuing hypopituitarism has been demonstrated. The main objective of this study was to investigate whether cortical contusion injury (CCI) could induce long-term reduction of serum GH in rats. We also tested the hypothesis that TBI to the medial frontal cortex (MFC) would induce inflammatory changes in the HT and AP.
