Evidence for a heritable contribution to neuroendocrine tumors of the small intestine.

Endocrine-related cancer - 1 Feb 2016

Abstract excerpt

Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) are rare tumors arising from the enterochromaffin cells of the gut. Having a first-degree relative with a SI-NET has been shown to confer a substantial risk arising from shared environment and genetics. Heritable risk was examined using a computerized genealogy linked to historical statewide cancer data. A population-based analysis of the observed familial...
