CDH1 Gene Gastric Cancer Hereditary Diffuse NGS Genetic DNA Test
The CDH1 Gene Gastric Cancer Hereditary Diffuse NGS Genetic DNA Test is a vital genetic test designed to identify mutations in the CDH1 gene, which are associated with hereditary diffuse gastric cancer. This test employs Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, offering a comprehensive analysis of the CDH1 gene to help assess an individual’s risk of developing gastric cancer. Early detection can lead to better management and preventive strategies, making this test an essential tool for those with a family history of gastric cancer.
What the Test Measures
This genetic test specifically measures mutations in the CDH1 gene, which encodes a protein crucial for cell adhesion. Mutations in this gene can lead to an increased risk of developing hereditary diffuse gastric cancer and lobular breast cancer.
Who Should Consider This Test
Individuals with a family history of gastric cancer, particularly those with relatives diagnosed at a young age, should consider this test. Symptoms that may prompt testing include:
- Family history of gastric cancer
- Unexplained weight loss
- Persistent stomach pain
- Early satiety or difficulty swallowing
Benefits of Taking the Test
Taking the CDH1 Gene Gastric Cancer Hereditary Diffuse NGS Genetic DNA Test offers several benefits:
- Identification of genetic predispositions to gastric cancer
- Guidance for preventive measures and surveillance strategies
- Informed decision-making regarding family planning and lifestyle changes
Understanding Your Results
Results from the CDH1 gene test can help you and your healthcare provider understand your risk of gastric cancer. A positive result indicates a mutation that may increase cancer risk, prompting discussions about surveillance and preventive surgery. A negative result does not eliminate risk but may provide peace of mind.
