The MEN1 gene on chromosome 11q13 is mutated in patients afflicted with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 1 (MEN1). These patients develop endocrine tumours of the pancreas, the parathyroid, and the anterior pituitary. In order to determine the role of MEN1 in sporadic pituitary adenomas, 6

Communicated by R. G. H. Cotton We have examined a panel of 21 sporadic Wilms' tumours for rearrangements in the Wilms' tumour suppressor gene, WT1. In one tumour with specific allele loss in chromosome llp13, a homozygous deletion in the 3' end of the gene, encompassing exon 10 and the 3' untransla
## Abstract A base substitution in the mouse __Dnd1__ gene resulting in a truncated Dnd protein has been shown to be responsible for germ cell loss and the development of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) in the 129 strain of mice. We investigated the human orthologue of this gene in 263 patients
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) is characterized by hyperfunction and tumor formation of the parathyroids, anterior pituitary and endocrine pancreas. We carried out exon-specific, PCR-based DNA sequencing of the coding exons of the MEN1 gene in 8 Israeli MEN1 patients: 4 familial and 4 s
