Introduction: ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma tissue differs from normal pituitary gland tissue in microRNA (miR) expression. MiRs are secreted into circulation and can be detected as potential biomarkersAim: To evaluate the difference in miR levels in plasma samples drained from inferior petrosal sinuses in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD) and ectopic-ACTH syndrome (EAS).Materials and methods: we enrolled 24 patients wi...

Introduction: Recent studies have shown that microRNA could serve as biomarkers in various types of cancer and other diseases. Aim: To reveal microRNA that differ in patients with Cushing’s diseases (CD) and Ectopic ACTH-syndrome (EAS) to form a specific panel for differential diagnosis of ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome (CS).Materials and Methods: Plasma samples from both sinuses and cubital vein were drained during in...
