TMEM127 mutation

Lastly, increased cell proliferation and tumor burden after TMEM127 loss can be reversed by selective RET inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. Our results define TMEM127 as a component of the ubiquitin system and identify aberrant RET stabilization as a likely mechanism through which TMEM127 loss-of-function mutations cause pheochromocytoma.

She was subjected to a laparoscopic bilateral adrenal excision. After five years of follow up, no recurrence of the disease has been recorded.

These novel somatic mutations indicate the existence of additional/alternative lymphomagenesis pathways in OAML. Moreover, the difference between our and previous studies suggests genetic heterogeneity of OAML between Asian and Western individuals.
