Loss of Expression of<i>GADD45γ</i>, a Growth Inhibitory Gene, in Human Pituitary Adenomas: Implications for Tumorigenesis
1 Mar 2002
Abstract excerpt
The underlying molecular pathogenic mechanisms remain unknown in the majority of human pituitary tumors. GADD45 gamma is a member of a growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene family that functions in the negative regulation of cell growth. We have found that the mRNA expression of the GADD45 gamma gene is significantly different between normal human pituitary tissue and clinically nonfunctioning pituitary...
