Methylation Status of Vitamin D Receptor Gene Promoter in Benign and Malignant Adrenal Tumors
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2015 We previously showed a decreased expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) mRNA/protein in a small group of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) tissues, suggesting the loss of a protective role of VDR against malignant cell growth in this cancer type ...

Estrogen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma [PDF]
Yeungnam University Journal of Medicine, 2019 Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare type of endocrine malignancy with an annual incidence of approximately 1–2 cases per million. The majority of these tumors secrete cortisol, and a few secrete aldosterone or androgen.

Silent Corticotroph Tumor with Adrenocortical Choristoma in an Eleven-year-old Boy
JCRPE, 2022 Silent corticotroph tumors are composed of corticotroph cells, but do not manifest any biochemical or clinical evidence of hypercortisolism. A choristoma is a benign, congenital proliferation of histologically mature tissue elements normally not present ...

Emotional and Adrenocortical Responses of Infants to the Strange Situation: The Differential Function of Emotional Expression [PDF]
, 1998 The aim of the study was to investigate biobehavioural organisation in infants with different qualities of attachment. Quality of attachment (security and disorganisation), emotional expression, and adrenocortical stress reactivity were investigated in a

P53 mutations in human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
, 1994 The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms have not been elucidated as yet. However, loss of heterozygosity at chromosomal locus 17p has been consistently observed in adrenocortical cancer.

Molecular markers of adrenocortical tumors [PDF]
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2012 AbstractAdrenocortical tumors are common and incidentally discovered in up to 14% of axial imaging studies performed for other indications. Most of these tumors are nonfunctioning but may require removal because of the risk of adrenocortical carcinoma.

Adrenocortical carcinoma: Single center experience
Urology Research and Practice, 2019 Objective: Adrenocortical carcinoma is an aggressive endocrine malignancy with an annual incidence of 0.5-2 cases per million. The most important factors that determine prognosis are tumor stage at the time of diagnosis and the success of surgery ...

Insulin-Like Growth Factor II (IGF-II) Is More Potent Than IGF-I in Stimulating Cortisol Secretion from Cultured Bovine Adrenocortical Cells: Interaction with the IGF-I Receptor and IGF-Binding Proteins [PDF]
, 1995 Although the stimulating effect of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on adrenal steroidogenesis has been well established, the role of IGF-II in the adult adrenal gland remains unknown.
