Genetic alterations affecting the PKA/cAMP pathway are commonly found in cortisol-producing adrenocortical adenomas (ACAs), while activating mutations in the gene coding for β-catenin (CTNNB1) have been reported in both adenomas and carcinomas. However, the molecular pathogenesis of most ACAs is still unclear. Aim of the study was a comprehensive genetic characterization of sporadic ACAs and the identification of novel molecular markers involved in adrenal tumori...
