As such, to assess the possible effects of altered expression of SLC12A7 observed in ACC tumors, SW-13 cells were stably transfected with SLC12A7 open reading frame under a constitutively active CMV promoter (pCMV6-Entry/SLC12A7) and selected for Neomycin resistance (designated SW-13/S). Here, SLC12A7 is linked to adrenal cortex carcinoma.
