BEX1 Is Differentially Expressed in Aldosterone-Producing Adenomas and Protects Human Adrenocortical Cells From Ferroptosis
22 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
Aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) are a major cause of primary aldosteronism. Somatic mutations in ion channels and transporters drive the aldosterone overproduction in the majority of APAs with mutations in the KCNJ5 G protein-coupled potassium channel predominating in most reported populations. Our objective was to gain insight into biological mechanisms of APA tumorigenesis by comparing transcriptomes of...
