RET Proto-Oncogene
Hereditary medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is caused by autosomal dominant gain-of-function mutations in the RET proto-oncogene. Associations between specific RET mutations (genotype) and the aggressiveness of MTC and presence or absence of other endocrine neoplasms (phenotype) are well documented. Mutations in six exons (10, 11, 13, 14, 15, and 16) located in either cysteine-rich or tyrosine...
متن کاملPoint Mutations in RET Proto-Oncogene Exon 10 in Patients with Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma
Background & Aims: Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy. Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is an aggressive malignant tumor arising from parafollicular cells of the thyroid. MTC occurs in hereditary (25%, hMTC) or sporadic (75%, sMTC) forms. The hMTC form has an autosomal dominant inheritance. RET proto-oncogene mutations, especially the 10, 11, and 16 exones, are associated w...
متن کاملTHE MUTATIONS OF RET PROTO-ONCOGENE IN MEDULLARY THYROID CARCINOMAS IN IRAN
MeduIIary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) occurs both sporadically and in the autosomal dominantly inherited multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 2 syndromes. The distinction between true sporadic MTC and a new mutation familial case is important for future clinical management of both the patient and family. The susceptibility gene for hereditary MTC is the RET proto-oncogene. DNA analysis for g...
متن کاملIs the RET proto-oncogene involved in the pathogenesis of intestinal neuronal dysplasia type B?
Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is defined by the absence of intramural ganglia of Meissner and Auerbach along variable lengths of the gastrointestinal tract. Intestinal neuronal dysplasia (IND) type B is characterized by the malformation of the parasympathetic submucous plexus of the gut. A connection appears to exist between these two enteric nervous system abnormalities. Due to the major role pl...
متن کاملRET proto-oncogene mutations in the diagnosis of medullary thyroid cancer: a review article
Medullary thyroid cancer accounts for 5-10% of thyroid carcinomas. RET proto-oncogene mutations occur in all of the hereditary MTCs and about 66% of the sporadic MTCs. So, the detection of the RET mutations is necessary for rapid and proper diagnosis and treatment. This systematic review seeks to find a comprehensive list of RET gene mutations in the diagnosis of medullary thyroid cancer. The ...
