Mouse Strain Susceptibility to Gonadectomy-Induced Adrenocortical Tumor Formation Correlates with the Expression of GATA-4 and Luteinizing Hormone Receptor
Certain inbred strains of mice, including DBA/2J, develop adrenocortical tumors in response to gonadectomy. Spindle-shaped cells with limited steroidogenic capacity, termed A cells, appear in the subcapsular region of the adrenal gland, followed by sex steroid-producing cells known as B cells. These...
