Isoform-Specific Monoclonal Antibodies Against 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase/Isomerase Family Provide Markers for Subclassification of Human Primary Aldosteronism
20 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Therapeutic management of primary aldosteronism requires accurate differentiation between aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA). However, little is known about the molecular features that delineate the difference between APA and IHA. Two different isoforms of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD3B1 and HSD3B2) are thought to be expressed in the human adrenal gland,...
