Molecular classification of pituitary adenomas: in search for criteria useful for high-throughput studies.

CONCLUSIONS: Our study showed that GH is characteristic gene for somatotropinomas. Similar conclusion we draw for POMC gene and adrenocorticotropinomas. However, the results which we obtained for PRL, TSHb, LHb, FSHb and CGA genes indicate that evaluating of gene expression is not sufficient for classification of particular subtypes of pituitary adenomas.
