摘要: Endocrine pancreatic tumors are rare neoplasms that occur sporadically or as part of a multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome. Germ-line mutations the MEN1 gene, located at 11q13, have been demonstrated in kindreds, and loss heterozygosity (LOH) on 11q13 together with somatic detected 20% nonfamilial parathyroid tumors. Here, we examine 11 non-MEN1 malignant pancreas, 9 nonfunctioning tumors, 2 glucagonomas. LOH least one informative locus was found 70% Three displayed gene whereas corresponding germ-line DNA normal. These findings support hypothesis contribute to tumorigenesis nonfamilial,
