   MiRNA
   Variant
   TF
   Methylation
   Cancer Name non-functioning pituitary adenoma
   ICD-0-3 C75.1  M8272/0
   Methods qPCR, ISH etc.
   Sample pituitary tumor tissues
   Expression Pattern down-regulated
   Function Description

All normal human pituitary cell types express MEG3. However, loss of MEG3 expression occurs only in nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas of a gonadotroph origin. All other pituitary tumor phenotypes examined express MEG3. Hypermethylation of the IG-DMR at the DLK1/MEG3 locus is present in nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas.
