Incomplete Pattern of Steroidogenic Protein Expression in Functioning Adrenocortical Carcinomas

Incomplete Pattern of Steroidogenic Protein Expression in Functioning Adrenocortical Carcinomas

Autonomous steroid secretion is a common feature of adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC), although not always clinically evident owing to inefficient steroidogenesis with increased release of steroid precursors. Our study aim was to analyze the expression profile of four key proteins involved in the ster...
