Proteomic and Transcriptomic Analysis Identify Spliceosome as a Significant Component of the Molecular Machinery in the Pituitary Tumors Derived from POU1F1- and NR5A1-Cell Lineages

Background: Pituitary adenomas (PA) are the second most common tumor in the central nervous system and have low counts of mutated genes. Splicing occurs in 95% of the coding RNA. There is scarce information about the spliceosome and mRNA-isoforms in PA, and therefore we carried out proteomic and transcriptomic analysis to identify spliceosome components and mRNA isoforms in PA. Methods: Proteomic profile analysis was carried out by nano-HPLC and...
