Pituicytes are a type of glial cell found in the pituitary gland. They are supportive cells that play a crucial role in the development, maintenance, and repair of the pituitary gland. Pituicytes are produced from astrocytes during embryonic development and are distinct from astrocytes in the adult brain. They are the primary type of glial cell in the posterior pituitary gland and are involved in the regulation of hormone release and the clearance of hormones from the pituitary gland.
