13 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Pituitary blastoma causing Cushing's syndrome in infancy is very rare, and its molecular pathomechanism is not well understood. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to identify genetic changes of a pituitary blastoma causing infantile-onset Cushing's syndrome in a Thai girl without a family history of cancers. METHODS: Genomic DNA from both leukocytes and tumor tissues was used for whole-exome sequencing (WES)...
