Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome (MEN1, MIM 131100), an autosomal dominant disease, is characterized by parathyroid hyperplasia, pancreatic endocrine tumors, and pituitary adenomas. These tumors also occur sporadically. Both the familial (MEN1) and the sporadic tumors reveal loss of hete
RFLP and microsatellite analysis with 23 polymorphic markers spanning the entire long arm of chromosome 14 in 108 neuroblastomas showed allelic loss in 19 out of 107 (18%) informative tumors, placing 14q among the most frequently affected chromosomal regions in neuroblastoma. One minimal deletion re
