Localisation of a gene causing endocrine neoplasia to a 4 cM region on chromosome 1p35-p36.

The development of some endocrine tumours, such as medullary thyroid carcinomas, phaeochromocytomas, anterior pituitary adenomas, and parathyroid adenomas involve a putative tumour suppressor gene located on chromosome 1p32-pter, a region that represents 111 cM. In order to refine the location of this gene, 93 endocrine tumours (39 parathyroid adenomas, 40 anterior pituitary adenomas, seven pan...

p27kip1: A New Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Gene?

Multiple endocrine neoplasias (MEN) are autosomal dominant disorders characterized by the occurrence of tumors in at least two endocrine glands. Two types of MEN syndromes have long been known: MEN type 1 (MEN1) and MEN type 2 (MEN2), associated with a different spectrum of affected organs. MEN1 and MEN2 are caused by germline mutations in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene and the RET proto-oncoge...

Localisation of the gene causing diaphyseal dysplasia Camurati-Engelmann to chromosome 19q13.

Camurati-Engelmann disease, progressive diaphyseal dysplasia, or diaphyseal dysplasia Camurati-Engelmann is a rare, autosomal dominantly inherited bone disease, characterised by progressive cortical expansion and sclerosis mainly affecting the diaphyses of the long bones associated with cranial hyperostosis. The main clinical features are severe pain in the legs, muscular weakness, and a waddli...
