Evaluation and diagnostic potential of circulating extracellular vesicle-associated microRNAs in adrenocortical tumors

Abstract There is no available blood marker for the preoperative diagnosis of adrenocortical malignancy. The objective of this study was to investigate the expression of extracellular vesicle-associated microRNAs and their diagnostic potential in plasma samples of patients suffering from adrenocorti...
