The authors have nothing to disclose. The authors declare that there is no conflict of interest that would prejudice the impartiality of this scientific work.

In this review, we cover the evidence implicating Ikaros as a key factor whose transcriptional actions and chromatin remodeling properties determine the fate of hypothalamic neuroendocrine and pituitary cell population expansion. We propose that the governing mechanisms involved in the regulation and action of Ikaros are of importance during developmental as well as neoplastic transitions.
