We aimed to evaluate the contribution of CTNNA1 and CTNND1 germline variants to HDGC, as well as to compare the frequencies of CDH1 and CTNNA1 (and eventually CTNND1) germline variants between patients with diffuse and mixed gastric carcinomas. This evidence concerns the gene CTNNA1 and CDH1-related diffuse gastric and lobular breast cancer syndrome.
