Purpose: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy known for high rates of recurrence and poor prognosis. Previous studies revealed controversial roles of adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) in patient management. This study aimed to investigate the role of adjuvant RT in postoperative ACC patients.

Aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) are a major cause of primary aldosteronism, a common form of endocrine hypertension. Here, we demonstrate that Early Growth Response 1 (EGR1) plays a dual role in adrenal cell biology, regulating both oxidative stress and aldosterone production. Using RNA sequencing of RSL3-treated human adrenal cells and spatial transcriptomics of adrenal glands from patients with primary aldosteronism, we identify EGR1 as a key gene associated with RSL3-related oxidative stress and APAs.

Adrenal diseases pose significant diagnostic challenges due to the wide range of neoplastic and non-neoplastic pathologies. Radiologists have a crucial role in diagnosing and managing these conditions by, leveraging advanced imaging techniques. This review discusses the vital role of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine in adrenal imaging, and focuses on morphological and functional evaluations.

Background: Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is rare and aggressive, with YAP1 overexpression associated with poor outcomes in pediatric patients. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms by which YAP1 drives ACC progression and explored it as a potential target therapy.
Methods: YAP1 expression and methylation in ACC were analyzed from pediatric and adult cohorts.
