Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
119580 | OMIM | Blepharocheilodontic syndrome 1 (BCDS1) | A form of blepharocheilodontic syndrome, a rare autosomal dominant disorder. It is characterized by lower eyelid ectropion, upper eyelid distichiasis, euryblepharon, bilateral cleft lip and palate, and features of ectodermal dysplasia, including hair anomalies, conical teeth and tooth agenesis. An additional rare manifestation is imperforate anus. There is considerable phenotypic variability among affected individuals. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
167000 | OMIM | Ovarian cancer (OC) | The term ovarian cancer defines malignancies originating from ovarian tissue. Although many histologic types of ovarian tumors have been described, epithelial ovarian carcinoma is the most common form. Ovarian cancers are often asymptomatic and the recognized signs and symptoms, even of late-stage disease, are vague. Consequently, most patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
137215 | OMIM | Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) | A cancer predisposition syndrome with increased susceptibility to diffuse gastric cancer. Diffuse gastric cancer is a malignant disease characterized by poorly differentiated infiltrating lesions resulting in thickening of the stomach. Malignant tumors start in the stomach, can spread to the esophagus or the small intestine, and can extend through the stomach wall to nearby lymph nodes and organs. It also can metastasize to other parts of the body. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Heterozygous CDH1 germline mutations are responsible for familial cases of diffuse gastric cancer. Somatic mutations has also been found in patients with sporadic diffuse gastric cancer and lobular breast cancer. |

Malignant tumors start in the stomach, can spread to the esophagus or the small intestine, and can extend through the stomach wall to nearby lymph nodes and organs. It also can metastasize to other parts of the body. The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. |
608089 | OMIM | Endometrial cancer (ENDMC) | A malignancy of endometrium, the mucous lining of the uterus. Most endometrial cancers are adenocarcinomas, cancers that begin in cells that make and release mucus and other fluids. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
