LaboratoryVEGFA gene c.-2578A>C and c.-2578A>T [Genotype] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal
Definition
The patient's genotype results (e.g. A/C) for the c.-2578A>C and c.-2578A>T in the VEGFA gene. VEGFA variants are associated with breast cancer risk, tumor characteristics, prognosis, and altered plasma and serum levels of VEGFA.[PMID: 22993299]
