between T2DM and cancer. Mechanisms underlying pituitary corticotroph adenoma ACTH production are poorly understood, yet circulating ACTH levels closely correlate with adenoma phenotype and clinical outcomes. We characterized the 5' ends of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene transcripts, which encode the precursor polypeptide for ACTH, in order to investigate additional regulatory mechanisms of POMC gene transcription and ACTH production. We examined 11 normal human pituitary tissues, 32 ACTH-secreting tumors, as well as 6 silent pituita
