What does this test PTEN Gene Analysis Test identify?

The PTEN Gene Analysis Test identifies mutations in the PTEN gene. This gene is responsible for producing a protein that helps regulate cell growth and division. Mutations in the PTEN gene can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, which is a hallmark of cancer. By identifying mutations in the PTEN gene, this test can help in diagnosing certain types of cancer, such as breast, prostate, and thyroid cancer, as well as certain genetic disorders like Cowden syndrome.

Why is this test PTEN Gene Analysis Test taken?

  • Purpose: The PTEN Gene Analysis Test is taken to identify any mutations or abnormalities in the PTEN gene. The PTEN gene is responsible for controlling cell growth and division, and mutations in this gene can lead to a variety of health conditions, including cancer.
  • Indications: This test may be recommended for individuals with a personal or family history of certain types of cancer, such as breast, prostate, or thyroid cancer, as well as individuals with certain syndromes or developmental disorders that are associated with PTEN gene mutations.
  • Procedure: The PTEN Gene Analysis Test involves collecting a sample of blood or tissue from the individual, which is then analyzed in a laboratory to determine if any mutations or abnormalities are present in the PTEN gene.
