Overview
The most common cause of pheochromocytoma is sporadic mutations. Less common causes of pheochromocytoma include familial associations and association with syndromes. Familial pheochromocytoma may be caused by a mutation of either SDHD, VHL, SDHB, RET, NF1 genes.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- Pheochromocytoma due to any cause may be life-threatening which may result in death.
Common Causes
- In most cases of pheochromocytoma, the cause is unknown.
- Sporadic form is more common
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of pheochromocytoma include:
- Familial form
- Associated with syndromes- Neurofibromatosis 1, Von Hippel-Lindau disease, Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 2A and 2B
Genetic Causes
Pheochromocytoma of the familial type may be caused by a mutation in the following genes:
- RET gene (MEN 2A, MEN 2B syndromes)
- NF1 gene
- VHL gene (VHL disease)
- SDHD, SDHB, and SDHC genes of the mitochondrial complex [1]
- SDHA, SDHAF2, TMEM127 (transmembrane protein 127), MAX (myc-associated factor X), FH (fumarate hydratase), PDH1, PDH2 (pyruvate dehydrogenase), HIF1alpha (hypoxia-inducible factor), MDH2 (malate dehydrogenase), and KIF1Bß (kinesin family member) genes. [2]
Pheochromocytoma and paragangliomas (PPGL) susceptibility genes can be classified into the following clusters- [3] [4] [5]
- Cluster 1
- Mutations involving in overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) as a result of pseudohypoxia
- Impaired DNA methylation leading to increased vascularization
- Cluster 2
- Activating mutations of Wnt-signaling pathway including Wnt receptor signaling and Hedgehog signaling.
- Mutations of CSDE1 (Cold shock domain containing E1) and MAML3 (Mastermind like transcriptional coactivator 3) genes7.
- Cluster 3
- Abnormal activation of kinase signaling pathways like PI3Kinase/AKT, RAS/RAF/ERK, and mTOR pathways.
