Objective: MicroRNAs are short non-protein coding RNA molecules involved in the regulation of numerous homeostatic processes via modulating gene expression. There are some data that the expression of microRNA might be modulated by hormones, but the interaction of hormones and circulating microRNAs of adrenocortical origin is mostly unknown.Methods: The expression of six selected circulating microRNAs (hsa-miR-27a, hsa-miR-125b-2, hsa-miR-200b, hsa-miR-21...
