normetanephrine and Cancer Syndromes, Hereditary

normetanephrine has been researched along with Cancer Syndromes, Hereditary in 3 studies

Normetanephrine: A methylated metabolite of norepinephrine that is excreted in the urine and found in certain tissues. It is a marker for tumors.

"Pheochromocytomas are rare catecholamine-producing tumors derived in more than 30% of cases from mutations in 9 tumor-susceptibility genes identified to date, including von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (VHL); succinate dehydrogenase complex, subunit B, iron sulfur (Ip) (SDHB); and succinate dehydrogenase complex, subunit D, integral membrane protein (SDHD)."5.37Measurements of plasma methoxytyramine, normetanephrine, and metanephrine as discriminators of different hereditary forms of pheochromocytoma. ( Adams, K; Bornstein, SR; Bratslavsky, G; Eisenhofer, G; Grebe, SK; Hofbauer, LC; Lenders, JW; Linehan, WM; Mannelli, M; Pacak, K; Tiebel, O; Timmers, H, 2011)
"Pheochromocytomas are chromaffin cell tumors, mostly originating from the adrenal medulla, and represent a rare cause of hypertensiondue to excessive production of catecholamines (norepinephrine and/or epinephrine)."5.31How to detect pheochromocytomas?--the diagnostic relevance of plasma free metanephrines.
