Hypercortisolism caused by an adrenocortical tumor (AT) results from adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-independent hypersecretion of glucocorticoids. Studies in humans demonstrate that steroidogenesis in ATs may be stimulated by ectopic or overexpressed eutopic G protein-coupled receptors. We report on a screening of 23 surgically removed, cortisol-secreting ATs for the expression of receptors for...
In addition to adrenocortical tumours, aberrant expression of functional hormone receptors in the adrenal cortex may cause adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH)-independent hyperadrenocorticism. Here we report on a 6 year old Vizsla dog in which ACTH-independent hyperadrenocorticism was associated with meal-induced hypercortisolemia. Diagnosis was based on history, physical findings, biochemical changes,...
