From Nf1 to Sdhb knockout: Successes and failures in the quest for animal models of pheochromocytoma

文摘

Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are genetically determined in 40% of cases.

PPGL are classified in either the Cluster 1 (pseudohypoxic) or the cluster 2 (MAPK/mTOR).

Several Cluster 2-related knockout mouse models are predisposed to pheochromocytoma.

No Cluster 1-related knockout mouse models ever developed a pheochromocytoma.

Xeno- and allograft models are an alternative to test new therapeutic strategies.
