Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have revealed specific activations of the RET oncogene in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2) and thyroid tumors. To understand the role of the RET proto-oncogene activation in sporadic adrenal tumors, we analyzed the alterations of the RET proto-oncogene in the cysteine-...
