Transfection of the Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 Gene to a Human Endocrine Pancreatic Tumor Cell Line Inhibits Cell Growth and Affects Expression of JunD, δ-Like Protein 1/Preadipocyte Factor-1, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen, and QM/Jif-1

Abstract excerpt

In the absence of metastases or overgrowth to adjacent organs, the lack of reliable markers for malignancy is a well-recognized problem for clinicians managing patients with endocrine tumors. Apart from inactivation of the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) gene, the molecular mechanisms involved in tumorigenesis of the endocrine organs and MEN1-associated nonendocrine lesions are vastly unknown. To try...
