Pre-Test Information
If you are considering the AIP Gene Pituitary Adenoma ACTH-Secreting due to AIP Germline Mutation Genetic Test, it is essential to provide a clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by this condition.
Test Details
AIP gene pituitary adenoma refers to a specific type of pituitary adenoma caused by a mutation in the AIP gene. The AIP gene is responsible for producing a protein called aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP), which regulates hormone production in the body.
In cases of AIP gene pituitary adenoma, a specific mutation in the AIP gene leads to the tumor secreting adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This hormone stimulates the production of cortisol by the adrenal glands. Excessive ACTH production can result in Cushing’s disease, characterized by high cortisol levels in the body.
NGS genetic testing, or next-generation sequencing genetic testing, utilizes advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This approach allows for the detection of various genetic mutations and alterations. An AIP gene pituitary adenoma ACTH-secreting due to AIP germline mutation NGS genetic test involves using next-generation sequencing to analyze the AIP gene for any germline mutations causing the tumor to secrete ACTH.
By diagnosing the specific genetic cause of the tumor, this test can guide treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes.
Don’t wait any longer. If you suspect AIP gene pituitary adenoma ACTH-secreting due to an AIP germline mutation, contact DNA Labs UAE today to schedule your genetic test.

Test Details |
AIP gene pituitary adenoma refers to a type of pituitary adenoma (a tumor in the pituitary gland) that is caused by a mutation in the AIP gene. The AIP gene provides instructions for making a protein called aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP), which is involved in regulating the production of certain hormones in the body. In the case of AIP gene pituitary adenoma, there is a specific mutation in the AIP gene that leads to the tumor secreting adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This hormone stimulates the production of cortisol by the adrenal glands. The excess production of ACTH in these tumors can cause a condition called Cushing’s disease, which is characterized by high levels of cortisol in the body. NGS genetic testing refers to next-generation sequencing genetic testing. This type of genetic test uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, allowing for the detection of various genetic mutations and alterations. Therefore, an AIP gene pituitary adenoma, ACTH-secreting, due to AIP germline mutation NGS genetic test would involve using next-generation sequencing to analyze the AIP gene for any germline mutations that may be causing the pituitary adenoma to secrete ACTH. This test can help in diagnosing the specific genetic cause of the tumor and guide treatment decisions. |
