Oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, cell cycle elements, genetic mutations, epigenetic modifications, microRNAs play role in this process. In this review, we will focus on the oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, cell cycle elements and microRNAs which have role in tumorigenesis process Anahtar Kelimeler : Pituitary adenoma, microRNA, Tumorigenesis
