متن کاملVandetanib in children and adolescents with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B associated medullary thyroid carcinoma.
PURPOSE Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a manifestation of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) syndromes caused by germline, activating mutations in the RET (REarranged during Transfection) proto-oncogene.

متن کاملMenin mutations in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1.
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) is a familial cancer syndrome with parathyroid, pituitary and enteropancreatic tumors. The disease phenotype segregates with markers on chromosome 11q13. Very recently a new gene was cloned from this region and was found to carry mutations in 14 of 15 unrelated MEN-1 patients. The gene was termed menin and is predicted to code for a tumor suppressor p...
