SDHC epi-mutation testing in gastrointestinal stromal tumours and related tumours in clinical practice
15 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
The enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) functions in the citric acid cycle and loss of function predisposes to the development of phaeochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL), wild type gastrointestinal stromal tumour (wtGIST) and renal cell carcinoma.
