The Glucocorticoid Receptor Is Overexpressed in Malignant Adrenocortical Tumors
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 10/15/09
Tacon LJ et al. – The immunohistochemical finding of nuclear GR staining identified ACCs with high diagnostic accuracy. The authors propose that GR immunohistochemistry may complement the Weiss score in the diagnosis of ACC in cases that display borderline histology. The possibility that GR is transcriptionally active in these tumors, and may therefore be a therapeutic target, requires further study.
