Abstract excerpt
The Men1 gene has been identified as the gene responsible for MEN-1, a hereditary syndrome transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. Disruption of the Men1 gene results in defects in the development of multiple organs, including pancreatic islets. Homozygous disruption of Men1 in mice causes embryonic lethality, making it difficult to determine the genes involved in defects of pancreatic islets during embryonic...
