Abstract excerpt
Approximately 30%-40% of growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas (GHPAs) harbor somatic activating mutations in GNAS (α subunit of stimulatory G protein). Mutations in GNAS are associated with clinical features of smaller and less invasive tumors. However, the role of GNAS mutations in the invasiveness of GHPAs is unclear. GNAS mutations were detected in GHPAs using a standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR)...
