Benign Hypertension-Causing Tumors Linked to Somatic Co-Driver Mutations
Most aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) have gain-of-function somatic mutations of ion channels or transporters. However, their frequency in aldosterone-producing cell clusters of normal adrenal gland suggests a requirement for co-driver mutations in APAs. More...05 Oct 2021
