Endocrine tumors (ETs) of pancreas and duodenum occur sporadically and as a part of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). The MEN1 tumor suppressor gene has been localized to chromosome 11q13 by linkage analysis but has not yet isolated. Previous allelic deletion studies in enteropancreatic ETs suggested MEN1 gene involvement in tumorigenesis of familial pancreatic ETs (nongastrinomas) and sporadic...
