Is paranglionic a typo?

I see many occurrences of the word paraganglioma and a handful of paraganglionic in this article but only one 'paranglionic' in the section on Impaired developmental apoptosis [second para, third sentence.]

I am not an expert, but this appears to be a typo. The 6-char sequence paraga seems to have been shortened to 'para'. Google finds only 141 occurrences of 'paranglionic' (versus 63,300 for paraganglionic), which mostly seem to derive from the English abstract of a 1995 Portuguese article by FR Silva.

There is a similar issue with 'paranglioma' instead of paraganglioma in the Wikipedia article on SDHD. Google finds more references in this case, but, for example, the Amazon.com category for 'paranglioma' refers to a book with paraganglia in the title.

Is SDHA a tumor suppressor gene or not?

This article says "Note the SDHA gene is not a tumor suppressor gene." without specifying any source, while the article about SDHA says the contrary "SDHA is a tumour suppressor gene" and provides a source reference [10]. Which statement is correct? 130.60.6.54 (talk) 23:01, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
