Methylation Status of Vitamin D Receptor Gene Promoter in Benign and Malignant Adrenal Tumors
We previously showed a decreased expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) mRNA/protein in a small group of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) tissues, suggesting the loss of a protective role of VDR against malignant cell growth in this cancer type. Downregulation of VDR gene expression may result from ep...
