| pubmed-article:11471546 | pubmed:abstractText | Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) is one the most common congenital intestinal disease. It leads to aganglionic megacolon in the early childhood. Several susceptibility genes have been identified : RET protooncogene and its ligand, glial cell derived neutrophic factor (GDNF), Sox 10, Endothelin-3 (EDN3) and its receptor B (EDNRB). EDNRB mutations are found in 5% of familial or sporadic HSCR. Only few EDNRB mutations found in HSCR have been explored and some of them seem to be non fonctional variants. | lld:pubmed |
