[edit] Rage or Panic?
The article says the adrenaline releasing tumors can cause rage attacks, but then immediately says they're usually panic attacks. Which is it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.230.161.164 (talk) 16:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
It can cause both panic and rage. Sometimes you can feel both at the same time —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eramsteven (talk • contribs) 21:45, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] VHL-gene is autosomal recessive?
The Von Hippel-Lindau gene is a tumor supressor, which means the non-functioning protein only appears if both alleles contain this mutation. If I am correct, this means that this mutation will be inherited in an autosomal recessive form, and not in an autosomal dominant form, as now is suggested in this article. Please, correct me if I'm wrong. But if I'm right, perhaps somebody could edit the 'autosomal dominant' image and it's underline, because I have no idea how to do that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tessal87 (talk • contribs) 23:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
