APC Gene Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Coli NGS Genetic DNA Test
Comprehensive Genetic Screening for Hereditary Colorectal Cancer Risk
The APC Gene Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Coli NGS Genetic DNA Test represents a breakthrough in preventive oncology, offering individuals with family history of colorectal conditions the opportunity to understand their genetic predisposition to cancer. This advanced diagnostic tool utilizes cutting-edge Next-Generation Sequencing technology to analyze the APC gene, which plays a critical role in regulating cell growth and preventing tumor formation in the gastrointestinal tract.
What Does This Test Measure?
This comprehensive genetic analysis specifically targets the APC (Adenomatous Polyposis Coli) gene, which functions as a crucial tumor suppressor. The test detects:
- Pathogenic mutations in the APC gene associated with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)
- Genetic variants linked to attenuated FAP (AFAP)
- Deletions, insertions, and point mutations throughout the gene sequence
- Variants that may increase susceptibility to colorectal cancer development
Who Should Consider This Test?
This genetic screening is particularly recommended for individuals experiencing:
- Family history of multiple colorectal polyps or early-onset colorectal cancer
- Personal history of numerous adenomatous polyps
- Relatives diagnosed with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
- Unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms with family cancer patterns
- Planning comprehensive cancer prevention strategies
Clinical Benefits of APC Gene Testing
Undergoing this genetic assessment provides numerous advantages:
- Early Risk Identification: Detect genetic predisposition before symptom onset
- Personalized Surveillance: Tailor colonoscopy schedules based on genetic risk
- Family Planning Guidance: Understand inheritance patterns for future generations
- Proactive Intervention: Implement preventive measures before cancer develops
- Comprehensive Genetic Counseling: Professional interpretation of complex results
Understanding Your Test Results
Our genetic counselors provide detailed explanations of your results:
- Positive Result: Indicates presence of APC gene mutation, requiring enhanced surveillance and preventive measures
- Negative Result: No detected mutation, though continued screening may be recommended based on family history
- Variant of Uncertain Significance: Requires ongoing monitoring as research evolves
- Personalized Management Plan: Customized recommendations based on your specific genetic profile
