Pre Test Information:
Before undergoing the NRAS Gene Colorectal cancer hereditary Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with NRAS Gene Colorectal cancer, hereditary NGS Genetic DNA Test gene NRAS.
Test Details:
The NRAS gene is responsible for encoding a protein called NRAS, which plays a role in cell signaling pathways. Mutations in the NRAS gene have been linked to various types of cancer, including colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer affects the colon or rectum and is the third most common cancer worldwide. It can be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
In cases where there is a strong family history of colorectal cancer, it is referred to as hereditary colorectal cancer. In these cases, there is an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer due to inherited gene mutations. To identify these mutations, NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is utilized. This type of genetic test can analyze multiple genes simultaneously and provide valuable information about an individual’s genetic predisposition to colorectal cancer.
It is crucial to note that genetic testing for hereditary colorectal cancer should be conducted under the guidance of a healthcare professional, such as a genetic counselor or a medical geneticist. These professionals can help interpret the test results, provide appropriate counseling, and make recommendations based on the individual’s specific situation.

Hereditary colorectal cancer refers to cases where there is a strong family history of the disease. In these cases, there is an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer due to inherited gene mutations. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously to identify mutations or variants that may be associated with a particular condition, such as hereditary colorectal cancer. This type of testing can provide valuable information about an individual’s genetic predisposition to colorectal cancer and help guide appropriate medical management and screening recommendations. It is important to note that genetic testing for hereditary colorectal cancer should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional, such as a genetic counselor or a medical geneticist, who can help interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and recommendations based on the individual’s specific situation. |
