Embolization in an adrenocortical carcinoma as palliative therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Background: With an annual incidence of 0.2% of new cases per 100,000 inhabitants, adrenocortical carcinoma is rare. In advanced tumor only palliative treatment modalities are practicable. Because of scarcity of the tumor, standard treatment has not been

Silencing mutated β-catenin inhibits cell proliferation and stimulates apoptosis in the adrenocortical cancer cell line H295R [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and highly aggressive endocrine neoplasm, with limited therapeutic options. Activating β-catenin somatic mutations are found in ACC and have been associated with a poor clinical outcome. In fact, activation of the

Neuroendocrine differentiation of adrenocortical tumors [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 1995
The syndrome of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 frequently involves the adrenal cortex. The relationship between the diffuse neuroendocrine system and the adrenal cortex is not clear however, particularly as the adrenal cortex is not considered to be an intrinsic part of the diffuse neuroendocrine system.The possible relationship between the ...

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.

Abdominal wall metastasis in scar after open resection of an adrenocortical carcinoma

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2011
A 42-year-old man patient presented with progressively increasing, occasionally painful lump in the left upper and central abdomen. Investigations revealed well-defined capsulated left adrenocortical carcinoma.

Precocious puberty in a child: A rare cause and review of literature

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2022
Precocious puberty (PP) in pediatric office practice is challenging as the cause varies from benign to malignant conditions. Adrenocortical tumors are rare in childhood and pseudo-precocious puberty is the most common clinical presentation in children ...

No evidence for oncogenic mutations in guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1933
G-Proteins are membrane-bound heterotrimeric polypeptides that couple receptor signals to second messenger systems such as cAMP. Recently, point mutations at 2 codons of the highly preserved alpha-chain of Gs, the adenyl cyclase-stimulating G-protein ...

Genetics and epigenetics of adrenocortical tumors [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2014
Adrenocortical tumors are common neoplasms. Most are benign, nonfunctional and clinically irrelevant. However, adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare disease with a dismal prognosis and no effective treatment apart from surgical resection. The molecular genetics of adrenocortical tumors remain poorly understood.

Alterations of Phosphodiesterases in Adrenocortical Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2016
Alterations in the cyclic (c)AMP-dependent signaling pathway have been implicated in the majority of benign adrenocortical tumors (ACTs) causing Cushing syndrome (CS). Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate cyclic nucleotide levels, including cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).
