Pineal Gland Tumors

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

The pineal gland is attached to the posterior roof of the third ventricle between the posterior and the habenular commissures, and between the pineal and suprapineal recesses. It develops at the beginning of the second month of gestation as an evagination of the diencephalic roof. Concerning function, it is active in the transmission of information regarding the length of daylight, the regulation of reproduction in mammals, and the circadian rhythms. In fish and amphibians, the parenchymal cells (the pineocytes) have a photoreceptor function, transforming light into electrical signals.
