Abstract
E-cadherin (CDH1 gene) germline mutations are associated with the development of the autosomal cancer syndrome known as hereditary diffuse gastric cancer. Different patterns of CDH1 germline mutations have been described as truncating, deletion, insertion, Splice-site, non-sense, silence, and at last, missense alterations. The frequency of the different E-cadherin germline mutations in countries with different incidence rates for gastric carcinoma has been reported as extremely variable. In particular, the missense variant frequency seems to be higher in high-incidence areas of gastric cancer, when compared with non-missense mutations. In this chapter, we described the worldwide frequency of CDH1 germline mutations in gastric cancers coming from different geographical areas.
