ZAC1 and SSTR2 are downregulated in non-functioning pituitary adenomas but not in somatotropinomas.

ZAC1 and SSTR2 are downregulated in non-functioning pituitary adenomas but not in somatotropinomas.

There are few data regarding ZAC1 expression in clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA). Because somatotropinomas and NFPA behave differently with respect to tumor shrinkage during somatostatin analogs (SA) therapy, we sought to compare the ZAC1 and somatostatin receptor (sstr) types 1,...
