Background: Genetic alterations underlying the pathogenesis of autonomous cortisol secretion and early adrenocortical tumorigenesis have been identified in 40% of adrenocortical tumors (ACT). Nonetheless, the molecular events leading to development of ACT and steroid secretion remain obscure for a large proportion of patients.Aim: Aims of our study were to investigate the relationship between transcriptome profile and genetic background in a large series...
