Endocrine Abstracts

Pituitary neuroendocrine tumours (PitNETs) are broadly classified as non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) and functional pituitary adenomas (FPAs) which include growth hormone secreting adenomas (GHPAs). Since the role of the immune system in PitNET pathogenesis is still poorly understood, we employed RNA-sequencing technology to unravel differentially expressed genes in GHPAs and NFPAs. Here we present an RNA-sequencing workflow of GHPAs (n=3) and NFPAs (n<...
