title: Increased cytosol glucocorticoid receptor content of leiomyosarcoma.
abstract: Glucocorticoid receptor content was determined in cytosol preparations of soft tissue tumors from 42 patients. Leiomyosarcoma had significantly elevated receptors in comparison to malignant melanoma, liposarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, and invasive desmoid.
