摘要: Abstract Aims Germline mutation of the E-cadherin gene ( CDH1 ) accounts for Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer (HDGC) syndrome. Fourteen pedigrees with that fulfilled International Linkage Consortium (IGCLC) criteria were selected and screened germline mutations. Methods The entire coding region all intron–exon boundaries analyzed by direct sequencing in 14 families fulfilling IGCLC criteria. immunohistochemical expression was evaluated on tumour as well normal formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Results A novel missense found. It a single C→T substitution exon 8, resulting transition CCG→CTG (C1118T; Pro373Leu) demonstrated proband her brother. At analysis, staining intensity reduced considered weakly positive (15%). Conclusions first an Italian family is herein reported. present has never been described so far.
