MicroRNA Era: The Importance for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Adrenocortical Tumors

Table 2

Summary of the current studies that evaluated microRNAs expression profile in blood samples of adrenocortical tumor patients.

Study	Tumors	Dysregulated microRNAs
Patel et al., 2013 [57]	17 ACAs, 22 ACCs	miR-34a, miR-483-5p
Chabre et al., 2013 [53]	8 ACAs, 9 ACCs	miR-139-5p, miR-483-5p; miR-195, miR-335, miR-376a
Szabo et al., 2014 [58]	14 ACAs, 23 ACCs	miR-100, miR-181b, miR-184, miR-483-5p

ACAs: adrenocortical adenomas; ACCs: adrenocortical carcinomas; miRNAs in bold are overexpressed and regular ones are underexpressed in carcinomas comparing to adenoma.
