Overview

Other diagnostic studies for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 include genetic testing, which demonstrates gene mutation in proband.

Genetic Testing

  • Identifying a MEN1 gene mutation in the proband early in the disease process can allow for early detection and treatment of tumors and earlier identification of at-risk family members.
  • Many studies have been performed to determine the prevalence of MEN1 gene mutations among patients with apparently sporadic multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1-related tumors.
  • Genetic testing for mutations in MEN1 is recommended if one of the following conditions is present
  • DNA sequencing is the primary method of genetic testing.
  • Haplotype analysis can be performed using specific locus markers flanking the MEN1 region and reaches a degree of confidence when a substantial number of affected members have been analysed.[1]
  • Molecular genetic testing is used for predictive testing and prenatal diagnosis.
  • Sequence analysis detects sequence alterations upto 70-90% familial mutation and 65% simplex mutation.
  • Deletion testing detects MEN duplication or deletion upto 1-3% of the mutation.

Genetic Counselling

  • It is an autosomal dominant disorder.
  • Child of an individual to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome has 50% chance of inheritance.
  • Siblings of an individual affected by multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome have 50% chance of inheritance.
  • If the germline mutation has been identified in an affected family member, molecular genetic testing can be used to screen the at risk relatives.
  • Prenatal diagnosis during pregnancies of individuals with increased risk is available.
