Detailed chromosome analysis failed to reveal any evidence for spontaneous chromosome instability in lymphocytes from patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2 (MEN-2), whereas, with one exception, lymphocytes from MEN-2 patients were significantly more sensitive to chromosome damage by bleomycin and, to a lesser extent, MNNG than those from controls. The exceptional case suggests possible genetic heterogeneity in MEN-2.
详细的染色体分析未能揭示2型多发性内分泌腺瘤病(MEN-2)患者淋巴细胞中存在任何自发染色体不稳定的证据,然而,除了一个例外,MEN-2患者的淋巴细胞对博来霉素诱导的染色体损伤显著更敏感,对N-甲基-N'-硝基-N-亚硝基胍(MNNG)诱导的染色体损伤也较对照组更敏感,但程度稍轻。这个例外情况提示MEN-2可能存在基因异质性。
