PG - 653-7 AB - We identified a novel nonsense mutation(R29X) of the MEN1 gene in a familial multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) patient. Molecular analysis of the MEN1 gene was performed in the family members by a restriction digestion method. The same mutation pattern was seen in both the proband's younger brother and cousin diagnosed as MEN1, and was also observed in the son of the cousin who showed signs of normal levels of serum PTH associated with mild hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia. These findings suggest that mutation analysis of the MEN1 gene is very useful in identifying the subclinical state of MEN1 as well as clinical MEN1.
