DNA extracted from the peripheral blood leukocytes of 36 members of five families with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 2A was analyzed for mutations of exons 10, 11, 13, 14, and 16 of theRET proto-oncogene by nonisotopic polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis and automated DNA sequencing. Germline mutations were found in all 9 of the affected individuals...
Germline mutations in the RET proto-oncogene have been shown to be the underlying cause of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2A and 2B) and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma (FMTC). Some cases of sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (sporadic MTC) are reported to have specific codon 918, 883 and 768 mutations of the RET gene in tumor tissues. We examined RET gene mutations in 40 Japanese...
