The Human Homolog of Diminuto/Dwarf1 Gene (hDiminuto): A Novel ACTH-Responsive Gene Overexpressed in Benign Cortisol-Producing Adrenocortical Adenomas
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
To elucidate the molecular mechanism of the pathogenesis of benign functioning adrenocortical adenomas causing Cushing's syndrome, we employed suppression PCR-based cDNA subtractive hybridization to identify novel genes that are differentially expressed in the adenoma. In this report we describe the adenoma-specific overexpression of the human homolog of the Diminuto/Dwarf1 (hDiminuto) gene. Northern blot...
