Clinical Information
  • A form of multiple endocrine neoplasia characterized by the presence of medullary carcinoma (carcinoma, medullary) of the thyroid gland, and usually with the co-occurrence of pheochromocytoma, producing calcitonin and adrenaline, respectively. Less frequently, it can occur with hyperplasia or adenoma of the parathyroid glands. This disease is due to gain-of-function mutations of the men2 gene on chromosome 10 (locus: 10q11.2), also known as the ret proto-oncogene that encodes a receptor protein-tyrosine kinase. It is an autosomal dominant inherited disease
  • Multiple endocrine neoplasia caused by mutation of the ret gene. Patients develop medullary thyroid carcinomas, and may also develop pheochromocytomas and parathyroid gland hyperplasia
