• W3021014673 abstract "Abstract Objective/Background Adrenal pathologies are more common in women than men. Embryologically the adrenals and gonads develop from the adrenogenital ridge with differential migration and differentiation. We hypothesized that in adult females there are adrenocortical progenitor cells that express the LH/hCG-R and proliferate in response to elevated LH. Indeed, several case reports demonstrated LH/hCG-R expression in adrenal secretory tumors in postmenopausal and pregnant females. In aging adults, nests of cells known as aldosterone-producing cell clusters (APCCs) that may be precursors to aldosterone producing adenomas are frequently detected. We retrospectively studied the immunohistochemical expression of LH/hCG-R in normal adrenals, adrenal adenomas and APCCs in archival specimens derived from post-menopausal women. Methods Archival specimens from adrenal adenomas derived from 23 women &gt;55 years of age were examined. Clinical data was obtained in a blinded fashion and hormonal data was available in 9/23 cases; 6/9 were secreting cortisol and 3/9 adenomas were secreting aldosterone. In addition, 6 samples derived from a repository of normal adrenal tissues from deceased kidney donors (1 male, and 5 postmenopausal females) were studied. All specimens were immunostained for LH/hCG-R and the adrenal stem cell marker DLK1 that facilitates the maintenance of an undifferentiated phenotype. The normal adrenal tissues were also stained for aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) to detect APCCs. The slides were reviewed and graded by a pathologist in a blinded fashion. Results Expression of LH/hCG-R was demonstrated in both normal and adenomatous tissues in all 23 specimens. The staining in adenomas was heterogeneous, with clusters of densely stained LH/hCG-R positive cells in all specimens. There were less densely stained clusters in normal adjacent adrenocortical tissue that was most prominent in the subcapsular, zona glomerulosa region, an area where the putative adrenal cortical stem cells are found as well as the zona reticularis. Double staining for the stem cell marker DLK1 and LH/hCG-R confirmed that these cells represent adrenocortical progenitor cells. CYP 11B2 immunohistochemistry of normal adrenals demonstrated cell foci dipping from the capsule into the zona fasciculata classified as APCCs that co-expressed cytoplasmic LH/hCGR. Conclusion Adrenal adenomas and APCCs derived from postmenopausal women exhibited heterogeneous but strong immunohistochemical expression of LH/hCG-R in all samples. Interestingly, DLK1-positive adrenocortical stem cells in the subcapsular zone also expressed LH/hCG-R. These data may provide insights into the female predominance of adrenal pathologies, particularly in postmenopausal women with high LH levels. The LH/hCG-R may be a viable target for treatment of adrenal adenomas in postmenopausal women." @default.
