Analysis of the mRNA expression levels of TTP family members (TTP, TIS11b, and TIS11d) and HuR in human adrenocortical tumors revealed that TTP mRNA was dramatically decreased in adrenocortical adenoma (ACA) and adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC) as compared to normal adrenal cortex (NAC) (Figure 2). This evidence concerns the gene ZFP36 and adrenal cortex neoplasm.
