BIRC7 and adrenal cortex carcinoma: These results are conform to gene expression data extracted from the high density oligonucleotide array of adrenocortical tumors published by Giordano and colleagues [38] and deposited in National Center for Biotechnology Information ́s gene Expression Omnibus (accession number GSE10927) which showed that livin is significantly higher expressed in ACC in comparison to ACA and normal adrenal glands (Supplementary Figure S6).
